Nike Slingshot Vs TaylorMade R7

[kam]

I am currently looking into purchasing a new set of irons. I am thinking about getting either the nike slingshots or the taylormade r7s. I am a new golfer with a HIGH handicap haha. I am looking for the most forgiveness in the clubs as possible. The r7s are on sale for $350 while the slingshots are $499.

I play both irons. The slingshot are an older model but the standard size head. The TM irons are R7 which would be less forgiving than the Reg R7 or R7 draws.

Personally for a new golfer I would opt for a used slingshot OSS set. Oss means the head is slightly larger than the original offering presenting a larger sweet spot.

My Son-In-Law has a set of these. He's a new golfer with swing issues. He shot a 86 on a very good course. I was there!!!! I was awesome.

Any way these can be had on ebay for less than $250. Excellent deal and very good clubs IMO

Any Suggestions?

thanks danielreiberg. I am about to get a gift card from work for about 200 dollars. So I was thinking to get the gift card for golftown if I was going to go with the slingshots or sportchek if i wanted to go with r7s. Thanks for your input

Just saw Slingshots today at Golf Galaxy (steel shaft) for $399.

But I see you're in Vancouver and my advice is probably useless.

Well if you have an opinion on which clubs are better between the r7s and slingshots, I would love to hear it.
