  I just bought a new set of irons and am not terrible happy with them. For a number of reasons. Is there any way to return/trade them  back for some credit? As it is I will go back to the default irons as they are more consistent and don't create a hole in my bag between the PW and my other wedges.

  Has anyone else done this? And yes I saw the rental option ans didn't rent before buying.

  To sell back any equipment you do not want to keep click on the EQUIPMENT tab from your Profile page on the website. From there you will see a button titled SELL EQUIPMENT. Click that button to begin the process of selecting which items to sell.

   

  Please keep in mind that Equipment that you can sell to the Pro Shop will be listed on the page and will have a checkbox for you to click if you want to sell the item. If a club is currently in your bag the word "Equipped" will be displayed. You cannot sell back a club that is in your bag. You will need to remove the club from your bag before you will be allowed to sell the item. The total value you will receive for the equipment you have selected will be listed in the TOTAL VALUE box at the bottom of the page.

  
  Also, it is not possible to sell equipment to other players, but you have the option of selling items back to the Pro Shop.  All sales to the Pro Shop are final.
  
  For detailed instructions, please visit the FAQ section on selling your equipment found at the link below:

  I'd give them more than a few days before you sell them back. Clubs sometimes take ages to get used to.

  I figured out how to sell the clubs back,thx for the help/answers. I will only get 25% on a sellback. I guess the only reasonable option is to give them _every_ opportunity. However there are some unusual characteristics that I find are poor,i.e. they do don behave in a linear fashion as to distance. After reading some more forum posts,I have seen quite a few people were unhappy with the same RocketBladez that I bought. I'll play them until I am certain they won't allow me to take my game "to the next level". I think the default Iron set are better designed,so you can see I'm not a terribly happy camper at this juncture.

  I have been happy with every other club I have bought from the pro shop.

  You probably should have bought higher level irons...the Level 35 G10's would have taken you to TM easily..a bit faster meter, but once used to it, nice clubs for  low price

  Nothing is linear on here. If you take a practice round and with the aid of a post-it note or something similar attached to your monitor just beneath your meter, just hit some balls and see how far they go and put marks accordingly on the note. You'll soon end up with a useful scale.
