I am looking into getting my first set of clubs as I posted about a week ago. While I was searching my dad told me he had an old hand me down set so I pulled them out to take a look. The woods are definitely old they are still made of wood at least for the most part. The irons are a full set 2 to PW they are Walter Hagen Ultradyne 2s. The putter is a standard putter I think a brass head. I think the woods and putter might be from from the same set as the irons. Finally the newest club is the driver, a Taylermade burner 10.5 I don't know what year but it is over 6 or 7 years for sure and it looks undersized in comparison to what I've been seeing lately. My questions are these. Are any of these clubs any good or would they make a good first set? Secondly would they be worth selling or could I make enough to maybe buy a newer set?

Thanks

To be honest, learn to play on what you have. When you develop a repeatable swing, thats when I would fork over the money on a new set. Right now you have no clue what kind of clubs you need. Stick with what you have

I hate to disagree with the guys above me but it bothers me when people say that. Why if you want to learn the game would you make a hard sport harder by using outdated less forginving equipment? I am not saying buy 1100 dollar set of clubs but a used set of recent irons and last years driver model all told could run you what mabe 400 bucks? money well spent if you ask me. I have seen many people try to learn the game with old sets of clubs and most of them just give up on the game.

I agree with wigolffan. Get a cheap set, you can get a good set for around 400 bucks with a driver, and the woods, plus the irons and putter.

    • My boss, out of the blue yesterday, asked me if it ever gets too hot for me to play. I've played in 112* in Phoenix before. Fairly frequently play in mid-90s in NY. Those days are worse than the 112 in Phoenix. I said no. But I'll play in anything. I've played in sleet, snow, hail (one time it hailed on us while blowing a steady 45mph gusting to 55mph - as verified by an anemometer in the clubhouse), torrential rain, high winds, cold, hot, you name it.  Lightning will get me off the golf course though. I'm not an idiot (well, not that much of one anyway).
    • I'm an all weather golfer. Luckily in my part of the Bay Area, it never get's much hotter than mid-70s, and the only humidity fog, so I don't have to deal with hot and humid weather. Most of the year I only have time to play once a week, and it's my weekly psychological break from the daily experience of work/parenthood so I hate to miss it. The only thing that really gives me pause is high winds, because my home course has tons of trees, and quite a few are diseased/dying. Often times when I am out playing and the weather is really shitty I will momentarily question my decision to play, but I rarely regret it.
    • I can't really vote. I'll play in 50° if it's even a little sunny and not pouring. I'll play in 90°. I generally won't play when it's pouring, ridiculously windy, or > 100° or below about 40°.
