I would say Nickent 3DX Hybrid irons, very user-friendly and forgiving. I would say go to a driving range where you can borrow some irons to hit, most range facilities I've been in are very helpful to first timers. Good luck, let us know how you go...

i'm looking at taking up golf and was wondering what the best clubs would be for a beginner

Hello and welcome to TST. Pretty tough to answer that. Like asking what’s the best wine to try for one who’s never had wine. I can’t say I agree with @Colins69 however. Your best bet is to find a Super Game Improvement set of irons used from a quality brand like Callaway, TaylorMade, Cobra, Ping. If you want to get an ‘all in one box set’ you’ll do fine if you can score a box set of Callaway Edge. These have been reviewed and did pretty well for the price. Cheers.

Nickent went out of business in 2009

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

No kidding mate, I suggested nickent because of the quality and cheap cost. Like start for a $100 and then you decide if you want to play alot or not, not a big investment to lose lol.... imho.

Welcome to TST!  We're glad you've joined.   

We all understand beginners don't want to drop a lot of money on clubs and other equipment to only find out that they don't like the game.    I believe that @Vinsk gave you some very sound advice.  Good luck.

From the land of perpetual cloudiness.   I'm Denny

      My Swing (Zeph)

      By iacas ·

      Welcome back! Evolvr.com? I don't use the full extreme end of it, and that's probably dipped to 75% or so nowadays. But I use the sole more than I don't, yeah. Also… it's good to learn this shot: Middle up. Not generally outside your feet in either direction. I generally have it slightly forward of center, yeah. Short version: tip your upper body in the direction of the slope. Look at the GC3. You can find them for really good prices sometimes.

      Day 3:  I tried to hit a bucket at the range but an 80 year old man (he told me his age, showed me his knee replacement scars, told me all about his chronic low back pain, etc) couldn’t pass up the opportunity to mansplain to me every little thing I’m doing wrong.  Dude, it’s my third frickin day.  I know I need to twist my hips more, I know I need to keep my head/chest down and not pop up, I know I need to hit through the ball and follow through further, yada yada yada.  I know.  That’s exactly what I’m trying to work on.  How about you tell me or show me how to do those things instead of telling me to watch Iron Byron videos?  Rough day.

      Day 132: 5/7/24 Full Speed Spectrum Training session 8/24. 7th training program overall.    Another slow session but 4 mph faster than my last session, which was my slowest ever. Going to the doctor on Friday to check on pulled neck muscle.

      Day 26: Did full swing practice after work. First 15 balls were working on top of the backswing feel, and then tried to incorporate transition feel into the next 15 balls. A's, although this will be my last season of being a fan as they leave for Las Vegas (by way of Sacramento for a few seasons). Hard to see myself rooting for the Giants, but if that's the only MLB in the Bay Area, I guess I might get on board.
