My girlfriend has been getting more into golf lately and we've made Saturday day our day of golfing. She's currently using my old set up clubs which are my grandfathers old clubs from the 70's. Needless to say, they're too long and too heavy for her to even begin swinging correctly.

She bought a new putter and a new bag recently, and now she's looking to buy some irons/hybrids to replace the old hand-me-down clubs.

Her limit is $300 and she'd prefer to spend about $250. She's happy to buy a used set if she can find some good clubs at a good price. She's looking to buy all the clubs needed for under $300. We're thinking 3-5 hybrid, 6-9 irons, PW, SW, and a driver. We don't care if they come in a complete set, we just need to total for all those clubs coming in under $300.

Are there any new sets out there we should look at? Or perhaps there's some good set on eBay right now we should take a look at? She's been checking craigslist but she said she hasn't found anything yet.

I'd put a WTB ad in the marketplace. It can't hurt. Someone has to have bought their wife clubs hoping she would take up the game and instead they sit in the garage.

Thanks for the link. That set meets our needs and our price. Question though... are those even decent?

We're looking at a used set of Adams A2 OS clubs on eBay right now and I feel like the ADAMS would be better quality. She may not continue to play this game, so we don't want to blow a bunch of money on clubs she may never use again, but if she does keep playing I don't want her being stuck with really low quality clubs. I think I've seen that set before, but the Wilson name keeps throwing me off :).

Thanks. I just submitted a WTB thread and I'll see if anyone has anything to sell :)

Wilson is a good and underatted name in golf. Padriag Harrington doesn't seem to have a problem winning with Wilson clubs.

For the price, Wilson is not bad at all. If she got into the game to the degree that these clubs won't be suiting her anymore, you can switch to something better later on. But for now I think these would be good.

Also I can vouch for rockbottomgolf is that a concern of yours. Bought from them twice and both times everything went perfect.
