Well as the big day for me approaches i will soon be graduating and going off to college.

And for a graduation present i wanted new clubs. I've been playing for about four years and these new clubs will be replacing a no name driver, putter, and LW. Along with my Tommy Armour 845s and Cleveland SW. Though i love these clubs i need some more forgiving irons the 845s are nearly the size of blades and some days i can hit great with them other days i cant. Mainly i am looking for clubs that are really forgiving. It doesnt have to be a complete  set just lead me in the direction of some nice irons, driver, and putters. So it can make my decision a bit easier.

My budget is $800 or less.

Also sorry if i didnt spell or word things correctly im a bit tired lol.

a lot of iron options out there. tm burner irons I have heard are some amazing clubs. burner driver is also a great club. you can buy a used burner driver for cheap. and really, the putter is up to you. all about the feel of the putter being right for you. whatever putter feel right, buy it.

golf is a lot like life. the more you enjoy it, the better off you are. a3_biggrin.gif

some great deals online for Taylormade burner plus iron sets.     If you have a Dicks Sporting Goods near you - theyre running some huge sales ... I picked up an Adamas Speedline driver yesterday for $59 (ok, so it's a 2009 model, fine by me).   Picked up an Adams hybrid for $39 over the winter there too...

I agree....just looking around you can get a full set of Taylor Made or Callaway clubs(New clubs, but older models) for less than 800.

I know you can find iron sets for 300-400, drivers for 150, FW's for 100 and putters for 80-100.

I'd suggest keeping an eye on good clubs on classifieds forum here and and golfwrx.com, there are great, lightly used clubs available pretty frequently.

      Day 36: back to some mirror work tonight. Need a bit more forearm roll in my feels to help with the shallowing.

      _sigh_ so close to red text.  Went away for three days, but didn't do a practice morning-of-departure (Friday) nor evening-of-return (Sunday), so I had three misses, back to day one. Day 1, May 4 2026.  At home today, spent nearly an hour in my practice room, hitting about three dozen practice balls, primarily with my 6-iron.

      I would think of it in terms of time. The time it takes to get the arm angle into a good position to deliver the club with proper shaft lean. Another component is rotation, but that is also a matter of timing. It relates to how the body stalls to give the golfer time to hit the ball. If you have to get 80+ degrees out of that right elbow in one third of a second versus 50 degrees in the same time then you have to steal time from somewhere. It is usually body rotation. That does not help with shaft lean.  I agree in that amateurs tend to make the swing more complicated than pro golfers.
