Golf Club Discounts
& Buying Guide

We don’t sell golf gear . . we sell hope.

Welcome to Clubgimme

As an avid fan of the game, I often shop around for golf club discounts and great deals on balls, apparel, and such. I buy a new set of irons about every two years, same with a driver. Of course, my game has improved only modestly with the equipment purchases, but at least I feel like I am committed to a lowering my handicap.
In any event, I’m hoping with this website to list golf club discounts from around the web, together with news, tips, and general information. I am not selling any products or services.
