I never thought it would so difficult to give away golf clubs...
Unfortunately we don't have a Frist Tee program near us. Guess
they'll just sit in the basement a while longer.
Having a local First Tee doesn't guarantee giving them away.
Less than a year ago, First Tee established a new chapter in my town.
Not another chapter within a county or so, and this one was brand
new. I felt sure they would need equipment. They accepted a few bags
of balls in the Spring, but last Fall said they had enough and
wouldn't accept any more. They never accepted any of the offered
clubs either. They have a local clubmaker as a volunteer, and he is
the gatekeeper for clubs. I don't know what his criteria are.
Actually, it's a guy I never heard of, so I don't know if he's any
good; I know many of the local clubmakers, but not this one.
