When you find the best set of clubs and you get them for a great deal, you are lucky. Maybe not, if you happen to be one of the many people who have brought what they believed were the real thing and hated the clubs, you might have brought knock off golf clubs. If you do not know this, you may be inclined to tell people that brand is horrible for golfing and in the end the real manufacturer loses business. Knock off golf clubs can discredit a real business and this is why laws are in place to protect not only the consumer but also the manufacturer.

Knock off golf clubs have a difference, even though small, a pro would notice the difference, but a novice golf might not. Counterfeit and knock offs hurt everyone and it is illegal. Although it is illegal to sell and buy counterfeit golf clubs, for the most part, the seller is liable more than the buyer.

The Differences With Knock Off Golf Clubs

The designs are slightly different in cosmetics, but the grips, heads and shafts are usually bought from the same place as the originals. Reputable knock off golf club dealers will tell you they are knock offs, but counterfeit dealers will sell them as the real thing.

Cosmetics of knock off are different as with the logo, and this makes them legal, the counterfeit will illegally use the logo of the manufacturer without permission. You will no an illegal club from a knock off, but is it worth the money.

Are Knock Off Golf Clubs A Better Value

Knock off dealers claim to use the same parts from the same distributors and therefore, say their product is the same for a cheaper price. Manufacturers disagree on this statement. They have engineers that work hard at providing the best golf clubs you could fine. They feel the knock offs are not as good as their own products.

One thing to remember is, store brand golf clubs might be selling under the store name, but made by the same manufacturer as say the Nicholas items. The difference is the packaging, logo and price. However, you are buying a top-notch product under a different company name.

Another way to explain this is:

• You go to the grocery store and buy a box of Cheerios, and then go to the next store and buy a box of Costco Cereal. The package is different, the name is different and the logos are different as well as the cost. However, you are buying the same product under two different names.
