The way to collect your memorabilia is by using
the sensible method. When purchasing your accessories
with a long term view of making a profit, make sure
you always grab yourself a bargain.

You can do this by getting it cheap,
here are a few methods you can use.

Method Of Getting Cheap Golf Memorabilia.

Playing golf without accessories is a bit like eating
bread without butter - possible, but really yucky!

Golf accessories can include the basic must-haves like
balls and cases for your clubs to the high-end,
nice-to-haves like handheld computers for keeping
scores or tailor-made gloves.

As you may imagine, not only are these accessories
terribly expensive but frills quickly become
necessities in no time at all. So how can a golf
addict buy these accessories at reasonable prices

Local golf club stores, as anyone will vouch, are
quite expensive. So the alternative is to check out
the local classifieds in the good old newspaper or
online websites like Craigslist and eBay.

Keep track of flyers in your neighbourhood supermarket
and keep one ear cocked for gossip and word-of-mouth
information. The moment you hear that someone is
getting rid of their golf accessories, swoop in for a
killing.

You can get great discounts and unbelievable prices
when others are spring-cleaning or upgrading their
golf accessories. You get good, durable equipment and
accessories for a small fraction of the retail price
or almost for free.

If you have a mentor who wishes to discard their
collection of accessories or if you are friendly with
a senior citizen who is no longer capable of playing
golf, well, you have hit a gold-mine.

You can either purchase or borrow your choice of golf
accessorise at little or no cost. Let camaraderie and
networking also help you along so that when someone is
moving home or is picking up a new sport you can ask
them for their set of golf accessories.

Who says that all good things in life, especially a
neat set of golf accessories, are necessarily
expensive?

Although it is always nice to look at your collection of golf memorabilia, there might come a day when you may want to or even have to say goodbye to it.

This could be because you have to sell it in some sort of emergency, or you may feel charitable and want to use it to raise money for a good cause.

There are several ways to raise money for good a cause, below we highlight one that we came across that shows the good spirit of golf memorabilia collectors.

Unique Golf Memorabilia On Sale To Raise Funds For Adens Veterans

Master clubmaker Nick Pearce has produced a ‘one off’ unique and very collectable piece of Golf Memorabilia for any golfing enthusiast, to raise money towards a permanent memorial to honour those who lost their lives in the Aden conflict in the 1960’s.

The piece of Golf Memorabilia is centered around a set of scale replica antique golf clubs circa 1754, which was the date when the original rules of golf (1744) were first written at St. Andrews club. These consist of:

Play Club
Scraper
Half Scraper
Putter
Track Iron

All the golf clubs have been produced using original methods and materials by Nick in his workshops. The clubs are also presented with an H. Ellis Print of ‘Golfers At St. Andrews’.
To further enhance its unique nature, the piece has been signed at the 2007 PGA Championship (Wentworth) by Ernie Els, Darren Clarke, Colin Montgomerie, Luke Donald, Padraig Harrington, Paul McGinley and the winner of the tournament Henriq Stenson.

This is a unique opportunity to obtain a one-off commission that will never be created again and will prove to be a jewel in the crown of any Golf Memorabilia collection.

The Adens Veterans Association South West Branch are hoping to raise a minimum of 2500 towards the memorial with the sale of the piece of Golf Memorabilia, so if you

would like to add this unique piece to your collection or know of someone who might, please get in touch.

Ok, you have looked at your golf clubs memorabilia and decided that you are going XXXX to cherish and protect them. They are sorted and logged in your memorabilia for the future store, now what do you do?

Once you have protected what has now probably become one of your most valuable future assets, you may also think about looking around some of your other golf equipment for what may be considered some golf memorabilia at some point in the future.

Stuff that you may think might be useless, could in actual fact be some thing that another enthusiast is prepared to pay some good money for.

For example even some of your old balls, if you have got some with the odd badge or emblem on, don’t go whacking it down the fairway then into the bushes, never to be seen again, pop it into a drawer for your future collection and use a normal ball.

XXXX Also consider maybe collecting up your old green fee tickets, imagine playing on a golf course now and at some point in the future for some unforeseen reasons it is not there any more. There will without a doubt be someone out there who would be willing to buy that bit of golfing memorabilia from you.

Perhaps some of the most valuable pieces of golfing equipment you will ever purchase are your golf clubs. But even after allotting a heap of money for them, most

golfers find that they don’t look after their clubs properly or in some respect don’t even know how to do so.

Because you have invested your time, money, and a lot of thought in purchasing your golf clubs, you should look at spending a little more effort in maintaining, storing, and using them the right way.

These clubs could end up being collectors items and be eventually classed as golf memorabilia.

First, think of the golf bag itself. Before you buy one, ensure that that the sides are hardened with some metal, like maybe steel. This will help to protect you clubs in case the golf bag falls out of the cart or if it hits other objects.

To prevent the theft of your clubs, see if you can buy a golf bag with a flap or a door on the top. The flap should come with some form of lock mechanism, for example, a number protected lock or even a simple lock-and-key will suffice.

There are several different types of locking devices available now days, a few of which you can find just by entering in the names into ones of the many search boxes available on the internet, ie: into Google, yahoo or Ask.

As an alternative if you look around golf related sites there are normally many links you could click on which will eventually get you to what you are looking for.

Think of painting, embroidering, or embossing your name on the faces of your golf bag. Some people even take it a step further and imprint their contact details with their names.

In case the bag happens to get lost there is a fighting chance of reclaiming it again. See if you can get a professional to emboss your name and contact details on the handles of your clubs.

This won’t prevent theft, but at least you know you have a better chance at finding lost clubs again and securing your long term investment in your golfing memorabilia collection.
