Question:
@yahoo.com says… Hi, Can you please recomend a good starter golf kit? I’m new to the game and do not want to spend too much money on my forst set.
1) Check your local pro shops. They may have used equipment that you can pick up for a reasonable price. 2) Buy new… Some suggestions: Driver: Taylor Made R360XD. Around $230.00. Fairway Woods: Tour Edge Golf Hyper Steel Any Lie 3 & 5 "woods". Around $130 each. Irons: Tommy Armour 845FS Silver Scott irons w/ steel shafts. Around $300. Putter: Cleveland Golf Classics Series. Around $80. No matter which way you go work with a local pro shop that will allow you demo (hit) the equipment you’re interested in buying. — Cheers- Jeff Setaro http://people.mags.net/jasetaro/ PGP Key IDs DH/DSS: 0×5D41429D RSA: 0×599D2A99 New RSA: 0xA19EBD34

Sweet question. Although I am not a big fan of piggybacking and just adding a me too!!, I will gladly do so in this case. My current clubs (gift from my dad) are about 10-15 years old. I only recently actually started playing (1st rounbd, 9 holes, was on sunday) and will be asking for golf clubs for christmas. I plan on playing about 10-15 times a year (I live in Canada, so the golf season is limited). I look forward to reading replies. — Marcel Beaudoin & Moogli ‘He’s dead Jim. Grab his tricorder.

I think used sets can be a very good way to start off. You might want to look for them at a store that has competent staff that can help you select something appropriate for your swing. You may find that your golf club needs may change as you progress. My wife, for example, started off with ladies clubs and outgrew them in a couple of months. — Jim Sabatke Hire Me!! – See my resume at http://my.execpc.com/~jsabatke Do not meddle in the affairs of Dragons, for you are crunchy and good with ketchup.

Go here http://www.diamondtour.com/golfshop/specials/iron_specials.shtml and get these VS-88 irons on special with the steel shafts for $89. These should be easy Irons for a beginner to hit. Go here http://www.diamondtour.com/golfshop/wedges/ and get the Integra Soft Cast 52 and 56 degree wedges assembled with steel shafts. These are good, solid, inexpensive wedges. Go here http://www.diamondtour.com/golfshop/woods/woods_vs88.shtml and get the 12 degree head assembled with a steel shaft. This should be an easy driver for a beginner to hit. Go here http://www.diamondtour.com/golfshop/woods/woods_grandhawk2steel.shtml and get a 5 wood assembled with a steel shaft. This looks like a good solid wood. You can also get a 3 wood to match later if you find you are hitting this one good. Go here http://www.diamondtour.com/golfshop/putters/putters_zp7703.shtml and get this putter assembled with a steel shaft. A good mallet style head. I’ve had experience with the guy at Diamond tour and just tell him a few key measurements and he will give you a fairly decent fitting over the phone and the clubs will be custom made for you. Get the Golf pride reminder grips, and the inexpensive DT lite steel shafts in everything. You will only spend a little over $150 and you will have a better starter set than you could get at any of the major discount stores. You could actually play with this set for years and never need anything else. Have fun. — Regards, Mark Downing "Now, go pump some iron you dingle berry brained chuckling chump, and if I’ve said anything to offend you, I meant it." [Ryan]
