Is there any way to check clubs serial numbers with having to ring say Taylormade/Callaway to check them ???

Golf manufacturers need to do a better job of tracking serial numbers. If Microsoft can tell you without a doubt if your copy of Windows is genuine then so should Callaway, Taylormade, etc. It wouldnt be that difficult to track every serial number printed and put registration and validation online.
