Golf Clubs for newbs?

[Newbie Collection Agency]

Right now I just started playing golf again, but I'm not too serious about it, only recreational. But my current clubs are a little old, Nicklaus Golden Bear Mac Gregor classic woods, and I was looking into getting some new one. Whats a good set that I won't have to spend that much on, or should I just slowly upgrade to better ones?

I supose it depends on how often you're going to play.

I'd look on ebay and decide on my budget first of all and then go from there. A good club for the recreational golfer is the Taylor Made OS2.

Look at the models that are 2-4yrs. old and pick one out. try e-bay and golf outlets for the best prices, also ask friend if they know someone planning on up grading their current set you may find something YOU"LL be happy with.
The clubs made in the last 5yrs should improve your game and you will become a regular again.

I agree with what golfchief and Xt1ncT, it'll be cost effective to find clubs on ebay that are a couple of years old and go from there. That's what I did a few years ago when I purchased a nearly new set of Taylor Made 360 irons. My game has yet to improve beyond these irons and I'm really glad that I didn't spend big $$ on the clubs. Of course, I look forward to the day when I need a good set of custom fitted irons
