I wouldnt spend a lot on your first set - get something that will last through a season as you have more time to study what you will really want long term.

I went out when I first started and bought all new equipment and a year later I have already replaced half my bag - I have the money to do it but I can see my wife cringing at the extra golf bag full of all the stuff I have replaced - makes it hard to keep her spending in line when I obviously havent.

The only thing I would vote against is the cougar set

I think the first set would be the best one of the bunch but hteir right you dont want to spend a ton before you even know if your really even going to be into the game.. Get something that will last for a bit and wont break your bank and if you end up loving the game like me you can upgrade later. O and whatever you do always remember Taylor Made is the best!! LOL.

Take the Titleist and bag for $100. it's pretty good price for 762's.
I don't know how often you're gonna play but it should last you at least 2 seasons until you are ready to spend $300+ for some sweet mizunos.

Grab the Big Bertha's, they will make the game much easier for you. It is a very easy iron to hit. You can keep them in your bag for years to come without thinking you have to upgrade.
