Hi all,

New to the game/forum. Just bought my first set of clubs, the Ben Sayers M7 Fire set,on the advice of the pro at my local golf club.

Was just wondering what perople thought of this brand/model in general and whether I have made a wise investment as my first set of clubs.

Have been told they should last me around two years before I need to upgrade.

Thanks

MoodyShrimp

I've never heard of Ben Sayers (a person or golf equipment).

Apparently he was an early professional golfer. Just done a quick google search on the brand... Seems they were the first manufacturer to make a square gripped putter, first to create a set of carbon-shafted clubs, and they made a specially commissioned putter for Jack Nicklaus! Most reviews online seem to be positive but just thought the opinion of the forum may be a more true reflection of the standard of the clubs I have bought.

I looked them up and it appears to be a "house" brand, kind of like Walter Hagen at Dick's.  Great starter set(s)... just get out and play.

Please excuse my ignorance but what is a "house" brand? Actually off to the range tonight to try them out. Got terrible blisters on my hands when I last went and was trying clubs before I bought. I am armed this time with a glove at least but reckon I really need my first lesson to hurry up and get here as I am told that this is a sign my grip is incorrect/too firm. Just wanted a fairly decent starter set at a reasonable price (£160), so it sounds like these should do the job.

Yeh, think its a fairly well established UK manufacturer. Hadn't realised so many of the people on here were from the USA!

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Shindig · Posted

      Day 11, 1/11/26.  Today was putting, along about 6' of carpet, with coins on the ground to keep me cognizant of what I'm doing.  I think this is the at-home drill from LSW. (Ugh, missed two of the last four days -- 1/10 and 1/8)

      Mizuno Jpx One Driver & Fairway Woods

      By M2R · Posted

      I caught a video on this driver; the face tech seems crazy. Looking at the heat map for ball speed, hitting it basically anywhere on the face only loses a few percent ball speed. The surprising and counter intuitive part to me was that for flat faced clubs, ball speed loss is directly proportional to distance loss. For clubs with bulge and roll this is apparently not true. The surprising part of that story being that the max distance potential looks to be a tiny pee sized area for this driver, and I feel in general for drivers. The counter intuitive part being (the myth?) that blade irons have a pee sized sweet spot and missing that tiny spot causes dramatic losses. And that modern drivers, maybe 2017 on, have massive sweet spots and are ultra forgiving. Where in reality, if this heat map data is valid and reliable, it might be a bit of the opposite. This insane tech driver appears to have a pea sized "sweet spot" while Mizuno Pro 241 irons are 28% more forgiving compared to the average of all clubs measured. Not compared to other players irons, compared to all clubs from all categories, players to SGI! The Pro 241 being essentially just a solid chunk of metal with no "tech" at all. Which for me devolves into a whole mess of what is forgiveness really? And in measurable and quantifiable results how many yards, or feet, does that translate into?
