GlobalGolf.com U-try Program Now Features Iron Sets from Leading Equipment Manufacturers

 

(RALEIGH, N.C.) – Global Value Commerce (GVC) – owner and operator of the world’s largest e-commerce platform for new and pre-owned golf gear – has added a variety of new options to its popular U-try club trial program available through GlobalGolf.com, including full iron-sets from PING, Callaway, TaylorMade, Titleist, Cobra and Cleveland.

Since launching in early March, golfers across America have turned to U-try in droves to experience a risk-free way to test the latest equipment from the most respected brands in golf. With the addition of full iron sets, U-try further strengthens GlobalGolf.com’s reputation as the one-stop shop for players of all skill levels to find the best equipment for their unique games.

Consumers simply select the iron set they would like to test on globalgolf.com/u-try and the company ships them for a $100 trial fee per set. Within 14 days, customers either keep the clubs and pay the current list price – less the trial fee – or return them with a prepaid shipping label. Drivers, fairway woods and hybrids from the aforementioned brands each carry a trial fee of $25 per club in the U-try program.

“The initial response to the U-try program has been incredible and we’re excited to add more options to the mix,” says Ed Byman, CEO of GVC. “This risk-free opportunity was designed so that golfers can try the latest gear from the comfort of their home course and not feel time restraints normally associated with the demo process.”

U-try promotes men’s and women’s clubs with various shaft flex and clubhead loft options. A deep inventory of new and legacy drivers, fairway woods, hybrids and irons from top equipment manufacturers are warehoused by GVC for immediate delivery.

Taking a page from major online and brick-and-mortar retailers with try-and-buy programs in apparel, jewelry, art, home décor and other categories, GVC has again innovated in golf.  It was the first to introduce an exclusive online marketplace for pre-owned golf clubs in 2001, adding new gear to its menu soon thereafter.
