I just read where someone said that knock-off golf clubs were cheaper because they weren't as good.  Well, for the most part they are wrong.  Yes there are poor quality knock-offs but if you know the product and how they are made, you will be able to find a high-quality product.  Some companies who sell the copies try to offer the average golfer good quality as well as a popular design.  This along with a good clubmaker can rival name-brand quality with proper fitting can offer a great set for a lot less money.
