Subscription boxes

[Brandons68]

Is anyone subscribed to any good golf subscription boxes (other than short par 4). Looking for something fresh and new.

 

Thanks!

All subscription boxes are a rip. Just go buy what you want...

Agree 100000%. I've tried several and they're all a disappointment, even after trying to hone my style and preferences.

Not to change the subject much here but did you guys see the Nike kids shoe subscription they launched this weekend

I do golf locker - its fine, I guess. They have a liberal return policy and they definitely send me stuff I wouldn't try out in the store, or we don't have around here. No real complaints.

Lol, yes. Don’t get it. At those price points, it’s not a deal for anyone. If you’re hooking people on a subscription, at least give them a 20-40% discount. By not going through retailers their margins are probably 80% on those shoes...

Guess it makes sense if you’re not close to a bunch of golf stores and clubs.

Yeah, midwest, we get the usual Dicks/Golf Galaxy/etc. Plus I generally try to go "logo-free" so that takes out my club. And I don't really have the time or inclination to go shopping for golf clothes. So basically if you live in the midwest, have a closet full of clothes from your club, and are lazy/busy, it might be for you? Not exactly a ringing endorsement I know.

I will say that shorts/pants are generally in short supply, even at most clubs. So that is one positive of the subscription box.

They have entire stores dedicated to being mystery boxes, they're called "Ross" and "Burlington Coat Factory"

 

Sometimes i end up spending...$10...$20...or $80, but i always get what I want.

That's probably the best one... I used it for a couple of months...

This is the only reason my fiance is able to drag me into these stores. Still waiting to find those $20 nike spikes in my size.

I did short par 4 for a few months. First box was good, we got puma shoes. Second box was ok, third box was all sp4 merchandise. I decided to give it one more month and received Calloway shorts and a shirt that I actually liked. The shirt however had a stain on it. When I reached out to SP4, I said one of my items had a stain, and with out even mentioning what it was he told me to try washing the Calloway polo and if that doesn’t work to send it back for a replacement. Well it didn’t work and I’m still waiting for my replacement 3 months later.

The curated boxes are dumb. I had a friend sign up for a "manly" box from some company only to get hunting gear sold at walmart. It is marketing geared towards bearded millennial that are too lazy to go to a sotre.
