Recommend a set for a beginner from these

[quicksilvr]

Hi,

I'm looking for a fairly affordable set to start with. I've narrowed my choices to a few. Any experience/insight on these?

Forgan Series 2
Bay Hill by Palmer BH4
Wilson ProStaff
Wilson Ultra
Ram FX Black

These sets are quite similar in terms of contents (and price): Driver, FWs, Hybrids, Irons, Putter, Bag.
Thanks in advance for all your comments.

I don't know how much more expensive these would be but I'd think about the Lift Off set from Tour Edge.

you don't list a location, but Golf Galaxy sells a package deal that comes from distance master that is very similar. it's another option to try out as well.

Also, consider going used, you will get a high qualify set for less money and since it's probably your first set you will probably want to end up with something different in a year anyway.

The Tour Edge Liftoff set was a bit out of my price range but it did just won a beginner set test on Golf Digest (FI). TY anyway. I ordered the Forgan Series 2 set.

I have a set that is going up on ebay this sunday, the 08 Callaway Big Bertha irons. These are incredibly forgiving and really help promote a high ball flight (was the hardest part for me as a beginner). I got them mid last summer with a handicap around 25 or so and now have a 10. I just purchased a set of mizuno's and so the Callaways are going. I suggest you consider used clubs as there are great deals out there to be found. Ping me if your interested I'd be happy to sell em 275 shipped I can email you pics and more info. Standard grips, length, loft, lie. Regular flex shafts.

For your first set, shop around in the shops and online and get as much used equipment as you can. You'll most likley end up replacing the clubs you start with in a year or so anyway so you dont have to spring on new stuff now.
