Question for UK members.

Does anyone know where you can get the ring golf weights from in the UK? I’ve tried almost every golfing website in the UK and a lot of the ones in Europe. It seems that the ring / doughnut type golf weights are no longer in use and are really hard to find. If anyone knows of a place where they are still available can you please point me in the right direction.

Thanks.

Every time I go near a golf place I take a look - ‘American Golf’ hadn’t even heard of them! Too many new golf gagets about now. :(

Hi . I’ve looked too. I found these but at nearly 4 quid each I balk. In the states I found them for under $2 but then the postage is unacceptable.

If I find any cheaper I’ll let you know

Best,

Hey Raoul, I too have found them on American sites and eBay for around $2 - $4 but with shipping to Europe they end up costing around $15 each and I also think that it’s way too much. Plus we’d probably have to pay some sort of duty/tax on the items which would make them even more expensive.

Thanks for the link to Amazon, I always shop for things like DVDs and books but I never thought they’d have golf weights. I’m going to go and check them out and I’ll post again.

OK guys, we have bad new and bad news.

1st,
I tried to order 5 Go Golf Swing Rings from the Amazon site, but they only had 3 so I got all of them.

2nd,
I phoned Scottsdale golf to see when they’d get more in stock, but it seems the may never get them back in stock due to the fact that they are basically and out dated product.

I just hope I don’t get an e-mail saying they’re all gone.

King, I am sure you have seen Monty’s site. I forget if I’m allowed to post links here, so I wont. If you haven’t seen his PEWEIGHTS site, just do a name search for Monty, and his link is in his sig. I have found that they help immensly with keeping in the extended state while not hanging, if that is why you are looking them.

..Actuall, I saw that someone had posted a link in a response to your inquiry. So it is PEWEIGHTS.com

Yeah, I can’t really imagine what those would do for your golf swing…

Thanks for the info Yssupgnitaeevol, I’ve already managed to order some weights for now, but like I said before this was all really to do with shipping costs. For 3 golf weights and shipping I ended up paying a total of $32.

Well I’m from the good old you/k as well, could any one tell me where I could buy some cable clamps,I have looked in all the DIY stores. Do they sell this product in the you/K? Lots of thanks if you could point me in the right direction.

russellma,

I found them in B&Q; apparently I was lucky, some of our British brethren have found them nigh on impossible to locate.

Go to B&Q’s website, locate your local B&Q and search for cable clamps. It will tell you if they carry them and if they are in stock. My local B&Q does have them, but only in packs with one huge one (too big even for Drilla!), several small ones, and only one medium, which is what you are after.

Thanks for the info Firegoat, I think I should get some cable clamps too. I don’t think I’d use them as yet, but no harm in locating them and keeping them aside for when I do.

I’ve just checked the B&Q website and the cable clamps are currently on offer. Previously priced at 3.98 now only 1 pound. So get them in while they’re cheap guys. This pack comes with one really big one, one medium one and two small ones.

They are not available to order on-line so you need to get down to your store. Unfortunately my local store is currently out of stock, but they have them in the Lakeside store if that’s close to any of you guys.

At that price, I think I’ll get some ‘spares’. I have lots of cables that need a good clamping.

OK, I got a package in today, it was the golf weight, but only one of them came in. I know I ordered 3, and I got charged for 3, but only one came in the post. So I went on-line to check my e-mail and I got an e-mail from amazon saying that Scottsdale Golf only shipped my golf weights today, and in the e-mail is says they sent all 3 out today. Does this mean I got this one for free and am still to expect the others? The invoice that came with the one today says that there was no charge. Maybe I bought 3 and got one free. Lets see what happens.

kingdingaling,

Did you buy the clamps? Checked my local B&Q still 3.98 :(
