Picking up a few budget clubs next week as im gifting my existing 3 to my son (he has irons etc) Really looking at low budget for my first year on a course but decided to get budget new rather than second hand.

I've found Ram EZ3 and SGS both offering driver/3w/5h with graphite shafts for around £90 including shipping.

Anyone familiar with the brand and able to give any insights re difference beyond color. (left handed and uk based). Open to alternative packages if you can recommend but definitely a low budget.

You get what you pay for. I think this stands pretty well when it comes to golf clubs. With the new, something will loosen or break. With the second hand…they just won’t be shiny and new.😃

Absolutely, not expecting a world class set or anything. Its a placeholder for a year hence cheap as chips. Just curious why Rams have 2 versions that visually look identical bar color, priced similar with a different product line name.

Ram golf has not been a relevant brand in the US since Tom Watson was relevant so you might not get a lot of help with the clubs you are talking about. I would suggest a quality used set of a reputable brand rather than a cheap set. You might find you play the used clubs for years. If I read your post correctly, you only have 3 clubs now? I'd buy a putter, its free to practice putting at a golf course. Anyways, check Declathon, there are a few in Scotland, they would/should have inexpensive sets.

Just a quick follow up to say i took onboard the advice. Ive been checking out second hand clubs instead. Ebay snipers driving me up the wall though so will see how long my patience holds out.

      Thank you.  I'll cross it off the list since it isn't going to achieve what I want.

      Phil Mickelson Booted out of Farms Golf Club

      While it does turn out that both Tiger and Phil are less squeaky clean than I previously believed, I don't think golf quite has the worst in professional sports.  Or maybe they're better at image management.   Obviously I'm not fond of Phil's issue we're discussing in this thread (or his involvement with LIV) or Tiger's choices of how to drive.  I used to really like Dustin Johnson and, even before the LIV situation, we started to hear rumors that he bought more snow than Seward, although I don't think those stories were ever substantiated.  Meanwhile, I did think of Anthony Kim as the "good, bad boy" of the tour for a while fifteen years ago because of his party persona -- and if it turns out the worst he did was show up hung over to play (barring what one thinks of LIV), that's pretty good.  And I'm still happy he found a way to get his life clean. If we contrast that with some other sports I enjoy, I'm sure we could find a nice long list of NFL players that, at one point in my life, I was quite fond of, we get far worse disappointments (to put it mildly).

      Answering that properly would land me in hot water, so I'm not going to. I don't think that many people would do that. I think that in certain circumstances many people would be willing to overlook someone doing that. But I was really referring to what I assumed was Tiger's transgressions (cheating on his wife) not Phil's.

      No! Is a large part of the human population selfish, apathetic and cuts corners in the name of self-preservation 'more than they would like to admit', yes. Degenerate, scum, etc?.. no!! Most humans/men would not grope a woman like Phil is accused of doing (I think he absolutely did). That is scum. I mean what % of men do you think would do that? Seriously??
