So, to make it short. My ex boyfriend was/is/may not be a PGA European Golf Tour Pro. We broke up an he owed me money, long story... I have his clubs/bag, which were apparently made for him by Taylormade. And a slope/range finder (only Taylormade issue) possibly why I can't find it anywhere onlne! I'm beginning to find a lot of little flaws in some of his stories. I think he played golf but I'm no longer sure if he was actually a PGA Pro, or he was at one time but no longer. So, I'm trying to sell his stuff to recoup what he owes me. I've heard about special serial numbers on PRO issued clubs. Like a distinct # pattern different than the standard issue/public clubs. Can anyone tell me if this is true? what should the # contain if PRO? I just want to get back what is owed to me and it would probably help a little if I could truthfully put "PRO" when selling them. Thanks anyone that can help me. If u have any more info please skaribrat@gmail.com.

  1. Found this after checking Golf Ace site..  Try a google search of this:  Do pro golf clubs have serial numbers on them?

    Serial Numbers: Around 2002, Callaway started adding serial numbers to their clubs. On woods the numbers are printed very faintly on the back of the heel of the club head. The serial numbers on their irons are under the grip so they are harder to check. The number also appears on the 8 iron as an industrial strength sticker just above the hosel. The absence of this sticker alone is not always a tip off as it can be removed with a little elbow grease and Goo Off. I have been guilty of removing it from my Big Bertha 2004 8 Iron purely for aesthetics. Mizuno and many other brands have their serial numbers on the hosel (part of the head that connects to the shaft) of each wood and iron. This is not true for Callaway and if you have irons with serial numbers on the hosel you have a fake.


  2. look for  small letters tp  no numbers on tour clubs . if there is no numbers no tp visable tour clubs . shaft band should read x300  or x400 . no numbers pro clubs . numbers consumer clubs .

  3. Go to a golf store, have them call Taylor Made and ask them. It's easy to find out. Good Luck.

  4. Call the manufarturer's customer service department.  They sould be able to help you and honestly if your ex was a pro, then the value of the clubs is at least 33% higher if not more than equipment sold to the public... EBAY
