"Beginner" Clubs?

[moparman426]

Here's what happens when a beginner gets blades:

OK, that is the funniest thing I have read in a while !!!

As a beginner, I would steer away from brand new as well....buy a nice "educated" set, then when/if you feel the need to upgrade/downgrade your wallet won't burn as much. I recently upgraded to the 755's I have now after using a set of Big Bertha 04's for a season, and it only cost $100 out of my pocket. A used club will resell closer to what you paid for it than a new one will.

Well, after a bunch of swings and tryouts I decided to go Mizunos. The MP-57 are within my budget, so I'm going to grab these. Will scour all the used club sites for them. They're "harsher" than my shovels, but they feel so so nice when I get a clean shot off them. Anyone got a lead on good MP-57 irons? The fitter at Dick's said standard loft and lie should be fine. He also recommended me for Regular to Stiff flex, but said either would be good for the swing I have now... and with practice I'd be able to handle a stiff flex shaft with a stronger lie angle no problem. If I was ambitious enough, he said I could go with a stiff flex shaft, and a .5 degree stronger lie on my clubs if I wanted.

I have no idea if that makes sense, since I'm still new and need to learn the terminology better. Maybe I'll drop by the pro shop at one of the local courses when I'm at the range next time.
