I hope I posted this thread in the right area. I've only been golfing for about 2 months (10 rounds) before winter hit. I bought a no name set of clubs not realizing they are low torque shafts just to see if I would like golf and I fell in love with it to bad I stink right now. I am trying to piece together a little better set. I bought the Callaway Big Bertha 460cc. Now I'm on to replacing my Hybrids I've heard good things about the Nickent 4DX Ironwoods I just don't know if they are good for beginners. Any input would be great.

i've asked similar question at golfwrx.com
from the replies i got:
the 4dx has a lower ball flight compare to the 3dx dc
4dx is also more "player" oriented club.

Launcher 460 10.5° <BB Solution 130 R>
Wishon 949MC 16.5° <SK Fiber Tour Trac 80 R>
3DX DC Ironwood 20°, 23° <UST SR2 R>
MX-23 5-PW <KBS Tour R>
Vokey 250.08, SM54.10, SM58.08 <DG Wedge> Callie 33.75"TLT Series 4MOI matched

Try the G10, I got mine yesterday, and I wasn't hitting my irons worth s@*t and then I hit the G10 and BOOOM it went a mile, and it is forgiving. Also a plus is are 3 stock shafts, one is the Ping TFC which is a Mid-Launch shaft, then the UST Proforce V2 High Launch (the one I have), and then finally the Graffaloy Prolaunch Blue which is a low launch shaft. If you go here you can find a fitter in your area, and you can get a discount on the clubs, and get fit. Also there are plenty of other shafts that you can put in the club, but with other shafts than I mentioned there will be an up-charge, AND there are different grips, with about a $5 up-charge.

Here's what I play:

Titleist 907 D2 10.5* UST ProForce V2 76-S | Titleist 906F4 18.5* Aldila VS Proto "By You" 80-S | Titleist 585H 21* Aldila VS Proto "By You" 80-S | Titleist ZB 4-PW TTDG S300 | Bob Vokey Spin Milled Oil Can 54.10 | Bob Vokey Spin Milled Oil Can 60.08 | Scotty Cameron Red X5 33" |

    • There are some little things here and there — the shoulder turn is a bit flat, and the arms move around you a bit too much too. Take a look at this video:
    • I've developed a serious case of the shanks and difficult to control push fades/slices with my irons lately. I used to draw my irons pretty consistently. I currently most draw driver. Also, I don't like how my elbow sometimes pops out from down the line, especially with driver and/or if I'm trying to hit it harder. I can control the elbow a lot better with irons, but quite difficult to have good contact and speed while controling it on driver.
    • I've been Playing Golf for: 2 years My current handicap index or average score is: 30 My typical ball flight is: push fade with iron The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: push fade/slice and shank with irons Videos:       
    • Day 1 (17 Jun 26) - Starting the post over - even though I have not missed any days as I’m working as a volunteer instructor at the Jr Golf Camp primarily in short game area (putting/pitching/sand) - Monday - putting stroke and distance control; Tuesday - chipping from off the green with less than wedge (7-9 irons); Today - getting out of bunkers (focusing on splashing the sand underneath the ball) - been a full three days.
