Actually you can..... depends on where you are looking and what you are looking for.
An example: Goggle "individual golf irons" or Amazon.

I held the dog so he could leave, but I told him he was really lucky because my dog had "messed up" a few people who had tried to break in once. It was a made up story, but that dog could bark and snarl and growl like crazy.

Very smart! I hope you had no further trouble in that neighborhood - word tends to get around among thieves about where to steer clear of.

A set is not useless but it's not the same when the clubs are not original. It's like a car accident. Many people will sell it after it's repaired.

Someone did successfully break in and steal typical college stuff; a camera, a tape deck, some other stuff...and my dog was with me out of town. Had he been in the house I'm sure the burglar(s) would have found a different apartment to break into.
