I have three stores I use for big golf purchases. Those being Golf USA in Manhattan KS, Fiddler's Green in Eugene OR, and Golf Smith...in that order. Small stuff like tees, and such are locally purchased at WalMart, KMart. and Target's yearly clearance sale. We have a Dicks SGs, Sports Authority and a Golf Galaxy, here but they are way over priced on a lot of stuff. Plus their sales staff are not quite up to par. The smaller golf retailers you can't depend on them staying in business more than a year or so. We have a store called Las Vegas Golf & Tennis which has survived over the years, but they cater more to the tourist trade, and sell only the larger OEM brands. There is a Callaways outlet, complete with a 9 hole course, but I don't use that brand. I save about 15%-20% purchasing purchasing stuff out of state.
