Rentaclub.co.uk., the UK’s first online golf equipment rental service, has revealed the most popular new drivers among golfers.
 
According to the website, which enables golfers to test drive new products by renting them for five days at a time, TaylorMade’s R9 SuperTri and Callaway’s FT-iZ drivers are top of the rental charts, underlying consumer interest in models with the latest technology and performance benefits.
 
“There has been an outstanding response to the new www.rentaclub.co.uk. website, with golfers relishing the opportunity to sign up and rent new drivers,” explained Matthew Fagan, Managing Director of
 
“New 2010 products are reaching the shops and we are seeing golfers teeing up potential purchases by thoroughly test driving products to find out what works best for them to ensure value for money from their investment.”
 
As well as TaylorMade and Callaway, golfers are also renting the latest driver models from Nike, Cleveland, Srixon, Mizuno, Wilson Staff and Bridgestone.
 
Once ordered from the website, the clubs are delivered within 24 hours by UPS to the golfer’s home or work address, ready to be put into play.
 
The golfer can keep the club for five days (£25) or 10 days (£40) before it is picked up and returned by UPS. Fairway woods, hybrids, irons, wedges and putters will be available soon.
 
TGI Golf, the UK’s leading network of green grass golf professionals and retailers, is supporting Rentaclub.co.uk., with many of its 400 members offering free custom fitting services to the website’s customers who, having rented a driver, go on to purchase a product.

“This is an exciting new opportunity for golfers and one that has the full backing of the UK golf industry, including leading equipment companies and retail groups such as TGI Golf,” added Matthew Fagan. “It is clear that the message that golfers should test drive and be custom fitted for new golf equipment is hitting home, and that this service is precisely what British golfers want.”
