Seller-declared grades, sterling with an approximate US dollar equivalent at £1 ≈ $1.33 (July 2026). What each grade means.
What holds its value across Ping
- G-series drivers and fairway woods, which are the models with the broadest demand and the most active used market
- i-series and Blueprint irons, which are the players’ models and hold value better than the game-improvement ranges
- Full matched sets in one specification, which are far easier to sell than clubs assembled piecemeal
- Clubs with the original headcovers and adjustment tool, which are small items that are always missing and always wanted
What pulls Ping resale value down
- Worn grooves on irons and wedges, which is where a club actually wears out and which buyers check with a fingernail
- Mismatched shafts across a set, where clubs have been replaced individually and no longer play consistently
- Sky marks on driver crowns, the scuffs from hitting under the ball, which are cosmetic but heavily discounted
- Regripped clubs done poorly, with visible tape or twisted alignment, which suggests amateur work throughout
Identifying and dating yours
- The colour code dot on the hosel records the lie angle the club was fitted to — photograph it and quote the colour, because buyers search by it
- The shaft flex and model are printed on the shaft band; photograph it, since flex is the second thing every buyer asks
- Photograph the clubface straight on under angled light so groove wear is honestly visible
What lifts any golf shoes, whatever the label
Golf shoes are judged on the spikes and whether the waterproofing still works, since both are what buyers pay for.
- Replaceable spikes still in good order
- Waterproof membranes still functioning
- Recognised golf brands
- Spare spikes and the spike wrench included
And what pulls one down
- Worn-down or missing spikes
- Failed waterproofing
- Split uppers at the flex point
- Spikeless shoes with worn tread
Working out what yours is worth
- Check every spike and note how many are worn
- Splash water on the uppers to test beading
- Confirm any spike wrench is included
What to state in the listing
- Size as marked with equivalents, and width fitting if given
- Spiked or spikeless, and whether spare spikes and a wrench are included
- Whether they are waterproof and whether any guarantee remains
- Sole and upper condition
Brand, model and spike type: “FootJoy Pro SL Golf Shoes, Spikeless, UK 9”. Spiked versus spikeless is a hard filter because some courses and buyers require one. Waterproof warranty is a genuine selling point when it is still in date.
Preparing and photographing it
- Check whether they are spiked or spikeless, and if spiked, count the spikes and check none are missing or worn flat.
- Test the waterproofing claim honestly if you have worn them recently, and check whether any waterproof guarantee period is stated.
- Clean the soles thoroughly and check the uppers for creasing and the laces or BOA dial for function.
- The pair side on, clean, standing
- Both soles, showing spikes or the spikeless pattern
- Any BOA dial or lacing system close up
- The size marking and any scuff, worn spike or split
When it sells best, and handing it over
Lifts from March to August with the golf season. A good pair listed in spring sells within a fortnight; winter listings are slow.
Post boxed. Clean the soles thoroughly first — shoes arriving with grass and mud in the spikes generate complaints out of proportion to the amount of mud.
What buyers ask
What does the coloured dot on a Ping club mean?
It records the lie angle the club was built to during fitting. Buyers search by colour code, so photograph the hosel and state the colour in the listing.
Do worn grooves matter on used irons?
Yes. Grooves generate spin, and worn ones change how the club plays. Photograph the faces honestly rather than shooting them from an angle that hides the wear.
How much are Ping golf shoes worth?
Roughly £24 to £96 depending on condition, against £20 to £80 for golf shoes generally. The identification points above are what move a listing to the top of that range.
