Best clubs on a budget

[prutkows]

same here i always see 50 or 60 year olds with new drivers and clubs but i hit farther and straighter every time

Yup, and by the same token (as an addition to my above post) there are lots of players who do benefit from the newest, most advanced equipment so of course they have reason to be spending thousands of dollars on clubs :)

Id just get a cheap sand wedge, prob not going to find one at walmart since you're a lefty so go online and get a cheap 56 deg wedge. Also, if you're new, you're going to have to set money aside to buy balls as you'll probably lose a few and tees too. Get a decent golf towel to wipe off your clubs after each shot, about $10 or so at walmart, I use mine a lot.

The used rack at my local Golf Galaxy (Delaware) always has a great selection of top name used clubs for a great price. Some are more worn than others, but I have always found what I need. If you need to add wedges,are on a budget and near a golf galaxy, then I would start there.

I agree with the wedges. Acuity makes some decent wedges that are affordable. I have a Callaway set of irons but still hit my Acuity gap wedge just fine.
