Nike Slingshot OSS irons, Good deal?

[collegeboy]

Hi

Im just starting out golf and needed to buy some irons. I decided to buy them used instead of new as many people recommended doing. I currently practice with a driver and a free burner 2.0 6 iron that I absolutely love(but cant afford)

A guy on craigslist is selling me a

5 Wood-Nike Sumo

4 Hybrid-Nike Sumo
5 Hybrid-Nike Sumo
6 Hybrid-Nike Sumo

and

Nike Sling Shot Irons -2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-PW-GW

all for $220.

Do you guys feel like this is a good deal for a beginner. I already have a nike sumo 5900 driver that I like.

thanks

bump...any opinions?

Yes. If they are in good shape. Those were my second choice last week when I bought new irons. They were going to cost me 300 for just the irons. I say buy them. I would.

The slingshots were my first irons. A good value but, I quickly moved on to other irons. Not that I'm awesome but, they didn't "feel" right as I progressed. Just sayin.

These were also my first irons. I played them for about 9 months before buying my current set. There is just something about the thickness of them that annoyed me (I am sure it had nothing to do with a newbie swing.) I still have an OSS sand wedge that I will throw in the bag if I know a course has real soft sand. I didnt know that they made a 2 iron, I know my set did not include a 3i or sw.

That is a good deal. I've owned those irons and liked them a lot. Good price and good set for a newbie. Go for it.
