Hey folks, first thread for me so bear with me.

So I'm in quite a jam here. I've become quite the golf nut over the past year and it's rubbed off on my dad. He just turned 63 but is still very fit for his age (from years of manual labor), however he has never engaged in any athletic sport in his life.

I want to get him a good starter set so that he can pick it up and enjoy this game before he gets too old. Although he is older and should be using a senior flex set, he could potentially get away with regular flex.

Now here's the two tough things. I really don't want to be spending too much on a set b/c I have no idea how interested he'll remain the more and more he tries this game out. At the same time, he's also left handed which makes my options ever more limited.

I've tried looking for used left handed sets on craigslist and Ebay, but none seem too fitting. At the same time I dont want to be getting some crappy $100 starter set that will break in a few months. One sort of compromise might be an intermediate set like the Golfsmith in-house brand "Zevo" ($300 for full set).

If anybody knows of any good ideas or has anything to say about the Zevo brand, any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks.

I've got a full set of left handed Golden Bear's with regular flex shafts that I got at The Sports Authority a couple years ago for around $300. This past winter I got all new clubs, so right now they're just sitting in the basement, but they are in pretty good condition. If you're interested PM me and we can try to work something out.
