I've seen a lot of people with Ram clubs in their bag. I've never heard of them before - how good is the quality and how much do they cost (compared to Ping, Callaway etc.)?

Its basically what they sell at Walmart or those full sets for 120 bucks that you get at Sports Authority.

If youre looking to get into the game and you dont want to buy expensive clubs...its not a bad idea to check those out just to see your interest level...although you can get some old big name clubs for pretty cheap nowadays.

Ram clubs are entry level clubs. I had a set about 6 years ago and outplayed them quickly and eventually switched to the Ping G2s and now play the Cleveland CG1 Black Pearl Blades. Overall, they are pretty nice for a cheaper set of club.

I still have Ram Laser Irons. Great irons and I still play great with them. Although its hard to get a good feel when you hit them well.

I'd definatly say these Aren't GI irons. They don't really have a thick sole, theres a bit of offset, and the topline is kind of thin. Great irons though. I bought mine for $300 brand new
5 years ago.

I reccomend these for starting, but If I had money these would be gone fast. I am due for some new irons.

If they are old clubs they could have been excellent pro line clubs back in their day; Tom Watson won some (or all) of his Open Championships playing Ram clubs.

That's right. RAM made pro line clubs into the 90's. I had a set of Laser FX irons, one of the first forged cavity back irons on the market.

Sadly, they do seem to be a K-Mart line these days.

Exactly what everyone has said. I bought a complete set at Target for like $130 bucks, found out I liked the game enough to spend more money on it, and now I am looking for another set of irons. They are decent to start out with in my opinion.

      Too Old ?

      By WillieT · Posted

      Terry - what a story…I’m about 12 yrs your junior but I do have friends in similar places of life. Like others have said - “go for it”.  The fact that you’re willing to challenge yourself in the midst of dealing with something like Parkinson’s is hero level stuff….looking forward to seeing how this great adventure plays out and make sure to get some of it on video as well.  Make them memories dude!

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Played nine today. Just went out trying to make a swing that had the feels of what I am working on. I would give it a C- at best. The best swing came on the 9th hole, 220 yard par 3, downwind. I finally made a swing where I felt the pause, and the arms down stuff like I practice. I hit the 4 iron about 215 yards, it rolled just off the back of the green about 20-Ft from the pin.  I might play 10 yards shorter on every iron shot, and make that pause swing, cause I can still hit it about 90-95% the distance.  Distance wedges or 3/4 wedges are going to different. Shanked two of them today trying the pause, arms down stuff. Might spend a bit of time looking at the video on those shots specifically.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By DeadMan · Posted

      Day 350: good practice session today. Hit about 25 balls, working slowly on my priority piece. It looks decent in slow motion. Better at full speed but not quite there. Then putted for about an hour. Focused on putts inside 10’ but also did a stack putting session.

      Too Old ?

      By RetiredOldMan · Posted

      Two of my golfing Buddie's are left handed. I will play a couple of rounds and use their clubs and see how I do.  Played last Thursday and had the worst game ever. (Playing in really strong winds. (SW @ 20 to 30 mph with > gusts.)  Will let everyone know when I get back out. May not play until Monday.   Thanks everyone, for your encouragement.    Terry
