I too, want to get the best buy, but I do try to support local businesses. Our local downtown areas are becoming like malls filled with chain stores and I hate to see that happening. I would have no problem going in Golfsmith or another chain store and trying a club without buying it, but would not be comfortable doing that at a small local golf shop. |
