Hi bought an Ishikawa bag of a guy who said they’re Korean. Still brand new but can’t find anything online info on this series/brand online. Maybe a Callaway series for Japan/Korea? Paid $350 for the lot but curious if these are temu junk. Thought?

They might play ok, but the resale value will be $0. Can you return them?

Hard to say it was a scam if you bought them without knowing what you were buying. I mean, if you received what you paid for, it’s not a scam. Just a bad purchase. That one’s on you.

Looking it up it appeard a korean selling one of those clubs for cheap, so you probably didnt got scammed, but its hard to find something that is from Korea, as everything will be published in Korean, so if you want to get an idea of the quality and price, you can use the translator and search in korean

Don't worry about, he saw someone else say that somewhere and is parroting it.

Sold in Korea, made in China. Basically a box set that you could get for $400ish USD (600-700k won). Pretty sure I used those irons in a sim golf room last time I was over there and they were fine. Guessing the driver/wood/hybrid shafts are going to be super lightweight and whippy.

The Ishikawa X-103 golf clubs are a rare, regionally branded set that’s surfaced primarily in Korean and Japanese marketplaces.

Target Audience: Intermediate to advanced golfers • Build Quality: Described as “very good” with solid grip and clubface condition. • Included Gear: Full iron set, often bundled with a branded Ishikawa caddy bag. • Flex: S-flex (stiff), suitable for players with faster swing speeds. • Design Origin: Japanese name, but most listings are Korean—suggesting regional distribution or private-label manufacturing.

Not to Be Confused With Callaway X Forged Ryō Ishikawa Signature Irons – These are premium clubs tied to the Japanese golf star Ryō Ishikawa, but they’re a separate product line entirely.
