Golf shops in the North

Mister Sifter

Where are the best golf shops to head to over the border? Any good ones in and around Newry or would i be better heading up to Belfast?

Not looking for a debate about the rights and wrongs of shopping up there, just some advice about the best places to head to. Main reason is to buy an electric trolley.

Cheers for any help!

Jaysus Graeme you're a bit young for that!

The auld pins mustn't be as strong as they used to be when you were a young man

On topic, dunno about golf shops up north but am up there a bit with work so will keep an eye out.

A friend of mine was going up north to buy clubs from American Discount, but found that there was much much better value in McGuirk's down here.

The best selection of clubs is in Nevada Bob's in Boucher Estate in Belfast (off the M1).

I'm not sure what they have in the way of trollies........I'd call them before travelling.

Definitely call them before travelling. I went up Monday to that branch and was pretty underwhelmed. I ended up buying clubs from Stephen Hamill's pro-shop in Lisburn Golf Club. The JJB sports shop in the Sprucefield Centre just South of Lisburn is also worth a look, but there's nothing in their branch in the centre of Lisburn.
Go early and avoid Newry town centre like the plague unless you love to sit in traffic...
