Little help needed for other half

Have been reading this forum for a while and enjoying all of the top-notch info that is here. Thanks. I now find myself needing to buy some ladies clubs for my other half but have absolutely no idea about ladies clubs that are on the market. She has only hit a few balls in the yard but does pretty well, and now I think I want to buy her a good starter set so that she can go to the range and spend some time with me hitting balls. Can anybody offer any insight on any decent brands of irons in the $300 range? Thanks for any help in advance....

... Here's some food for thought ...

In March of last year my "other half" kept getting ticked-off because I was always leaving to head south to play golf ... so I said: "I'm not quitting, so you better pick up the game..." step 1.) So we wondered around a few golf shops, did a lot of feely touchy and she finally liked the look and the feel of a package set of $199 clubs at Golf Galaxy ... step 2.) I took her to the driving range 2/3 times a week to let "her" get the feel of hitting a club, what's the feel of a 3 iron, what's the difference of a 7 iron, how's the feeling of hitting a 3 wood and what feels better -- lots of balls hit the side rails in the very beginning .. but, 20 ft turned into 20 yards, then 20 yards turned into 60 yards, and 60 yards turned into 120 yards and so on ... it was loud for awhile .l.o.l.. but she now had a much better idea and understood alot more info from watching the Golf Channel and reading Annika's book (which is a good one I might add) by actually feeling and touching ... the vast amount of time, I just kept quite (ear plugs help.!) step 3.) Then I took her on a few courses .. now she had a much better idea of slope, distance and had a much better perception of the green (that always takes time, sometimes a lifetime) .. ;^) step 4.) I researched instructors in the area ... let's be honest, just because they're an instructor doesn't mean they're especially good, there's a big human factor here and that will make all the difference between money spent, and money well spent .... if you really want to see how a really good instructor is, watch his or her patience and dynamics around the very young players .. that usually will tell the story. Not only was it a good time to tweak her game, but this was a very good time to tweak her clubs ... different grips, change the lie on a few, shorten a few with the proper measurements and maybe pull a few out, depending on her likes and dislikes .. I might have spent $70/$80 bucks. step 5.) Now she was getting more and more confident and the womens league was opening up and she played on Thursday afternoons .. then on Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays and Mondays we played together and every weekend we picked 1 new course .... the more courses you play (male or female) the better you get. step 6.) Now her confidence level is way up .... one day she mentions how she would rather play from the mens tee's because she feels that she would have a better opportunity to play her woods and her longer irons -- okay, it sounded good to me(?) .. in the meantime she was right, it was a big addition to her game ... now, it shakes a few of the men at most of the courses, but hey, it's her dime. step 7.) That was 17 months ago ... she's kicked a few clubs out of her bag and moved on to a few hybrids, she's changed to a bigger driver because she can drive a ball 175/180 yards ... now, she's played courses in Myrtle Beach, Pinehurst, the Trent Jones courses in Alabama and even pared a few holes on Amelia Island .... did I mention she has a 18 handicap from the whites.?

Thanks so much for the post....I can see that entire post in my future...lol...
