Looking for opinions on Distance Master clubs. I want to get a set of clubs for my wife to start, and I want something that is nicely weighted and good quality, and hopefully at a decent price. I found a set of women's lefty DM clubs for sale used. I was looking for an older Callaway/Ping/etc but these came along pretty cheap.

In my Craz-E-Lite bag:

Driver: R7 465 driver 10.5*
Fairway: R7 3W, 5W
Irons: Zing 2 3-9, PW, SWWedge: X-forged 56*Putter: Monza Corza Ball: Various

It's a component club, and likely decent quality. Unless your wife needs non-standard irons, you can likely find a great deal on a used set of name brand clubs.

In the Bag: TaylorMade R11 TP - TaylorMade R7 TP TS - Cleveland Halo - TM TP 2009 3-PW - Vokey SM 52 - Vokey SM 60 - Rife Barbados CS - ProV1x 


On the Computer:  Analyzr Pro

Look at Callaway Preowned website for some womens iron/hybrids sets. Bought my wife some clubs for Christmas last year. We got hers from Carls Golf as they were on sale. Maybe check The Golf Warehouse, Edwin Watts, or Golfsmith for sale items. The set of Callaway womens clubs are easy to hit. Large cavity irons, graduating as they go up. Got some for my wife (lefty) last year. Wonderful clubs for a beginner.

Sidenote, you are in Charlotte, not far from you is Tot Hill Farm. A must play Mike Stranz design near Asheboro. Look up the website. One of my favorite courses in the state. Very unique layout, elevated tee boxes, etc.. just stunning (and affordable).

    • I think you're saying it's preposterous to think that the areas on this club are anything like what's shown here: 30mm toward the toe or heel loses only 5% distance? Highly, highly doubtful. So a guy who hits the ball there and normally hits the ball about 250… will hit it instead about 238. By missing the sweet spot by about 1.2 inches? Highly, highly doubtful. Heck, the high heel barely gets into the red, and orange is only "up to" 10%! @M2R, I've never heard of "Ask Golf Nut" but I'm dubious of his claims in the video and really, really dubious of what's on his site: "Why AskGolfNut Is the Most Trusted Data-Driven Golf Resource". Hmmmmmm.
    • Day 151 1-11 flow work today. I've been doing all pause work, so Inwanted to get some rhythm going. Recorded.
    • a) No b) This MLR says: I doubt the MLR is going to affect their weekly league games, in other words.
    • So the question was posed today by some of my friends.  Is a pitch mark the same as a divot?  I thought NO, but they argued if your ball lands in another player's divot (made by club during a swing) this was the same as a pitch mark, i.e. the ball mark made when the ball lands  
    • Original definition use to or still is how far offline you hit it. It might be better to think of it as consistency in retaining favorable launch conditions to optimize distance.   That heat map showed a gigantic 0-3% loss in ball speed. That is absurd. The true 100% sweet spot is tiny for all clubs. Good luck telling the difference if the sweet spot is under 3% in a sizable area. Especially considering variation in launch angle, spin, and outdoor weather.
