I wouldn't think demo clubs would be too much different than used ones. You could argue that used clubs may be better taken care of but that all depends on who had them before you.

The only concern about demo clubs I would have is what conditions they have been hit under. If they have been used primarily off of driving range mats, then you would want to have the lofts and lies checked to make sure they are not way outta whack, but overall I don't think you'll see a difference between used and demo clubs.

I have bought quite a few demo clubs and I do this because they are much cheaper and if you don't like how it looks you don't have to buy it. I mainly buy them for the head and them reshaft/regrip them because I can get them for half off.

I have to agree with Neudi here. Why not buy demo or used clubs? If you hit well and like the overall look then don't let something like a few little nicks in the face stop you.

I think it depends on who and where you buy the clubs from. My irons are demo clubs and I saved over 50% on them. I was hesitant like you, but because I went through Golfsmith to purchase them, I actually was in contact not only with the sales rep on the phone, but they put me in touch with the store that actually had them on-site.

I bought a complete set of Cobra clubs that was used as a rental set. I had played with them once ahead of time. The clubs looked like they had barely been used. It was a $2000 set brand new that I got for $500 with free shipping.
