Hey All,

Brand new to the site/forum, and I'm hoping for some help...looking to find a decent set of clubs so I can get back into playing with my father in law...I was an avid golfer many years ago, but never really invested in a quality set...I've been away from the game long enough to have no idea what's worth buying, what I can expect to pay, etc...can $300 buy me everything, or am I way off? I appreciate any info and guidance you can provide! Please note, I'm looking for LEFT handed clubs. Thanks so much!

Copa, welcome to TST!  For $300, you could get a quality iron set, slightly used on Ebay.  If you wanted a turnkey set for $300... Well the quality will be sacrificed.

If you are looking for a retailer who has deep golf discounts... Checkout: http://www.rockbottomgolf.com/

Let us know what you end up getting.  Hope you enjoy playing again!

I've done some looking around today, and I can tell I'm going to have to pay a bit more if I want to have a nice, complete set...any suggestions on best buys for the price??

I'm looking at starting with a set of Taylor Made Burner Plus irons...thoughts? Beyond that, is it possible to find a quality driver at or under $100? Thanks!

What is your idea of quality?  I have a Callaway FTiQ which was a top of the line driver in 2009 or 2010.  I picked it up for cheap with a sky mark.  I filled in the paint on the sky mark but its pretty easy to spot where I filled it in.

It is left handed.  I also have a ping G10 5W that I could throw in as well.

I would sell them both to you for $80 plus shipping.  They both have stiff flex shafts.  I have the Callaway head cover, but no HC for the 5w.

In my bag:

some golf clubs

a few golf balls

a bag of tee's some already broken the rest soon to be

a snickers wrapper (if you have seen me play, you would know you are not going anywhere for a while)

and an empty bottle of water

Buy a set of used Cobra irons off ebay

3100, fp, ssi

Ie there is a set of 3100 atm for $65.

All these supercede models were awesome.

Similarly a s2 or s3 driver can be had cheap.

Get a hybrid and putter you love and your good to go.

Check out global golf. 3balls. And callaway pre owned. All offer free shipping if u spend over 99 at 3balls. $199 at global golf. I find global golf to havr a wider selection of irons hybrids and wedges. I would say around $500 you could have a very solid set. Irons wedges driver and hybrid.

A great set of irons for around 130 - 150 is the Adams a7 set. It comes with 3 and 4 hybrids too. Very nice set for a great price. As for a driver if you are near one the pga superstores have a nice selection of used clubs .I picked up a Adams fast 12 with a ust shaft for 70 bucks.

    • Committing to one brand of ball this year - Snell MTB Prime X, the 5 doz. pack. Like how they perform for me. At $18/doz., can live with cover scuffing. Iron regripping with GolfPrice MCC+4 Teams std. in red/navy. May be retiring Odyssey Dual Force after 30 yrs. Seems like I can't get it to the hole anymore. Kind of light and has lots of toe hang. My reg. group's hounding finally wore me down.    From Callaway preowned - trying out the Odyssey Tri-Hot 5K in double wide (less toe hang) and triple wide (face balanced). Both also noticeably heavier...we shall see.  
    • WOW, it looks like he has been hitting stones with that putter to put all of those nicks into it.  I can't see how a ball would cause many those dings.
    • I'm fighting a knee as well as a foot so I "Feel your pain".  Luckily for me the PT is helping at this time and I am hoping knee surgery is not imminent.  Best of luck to you.
    • I would guess putting grooves in it might make it non-conforming. I am not sure how stringent the USGA is on restoring golf clubs.
    • If PT doesn't work, then all other options (shots) are just temporary bandages of the pain. You may do more damage. Pain is the bodies way of telling you to STOP. Once you get rid of that, you are just now using an already damaged body part and put more stress and strain on it.
