I've heard from a ton of people that the head has flown off of their driver. Way too many for me to feel comfortable having her use those. Even after replacement sets, and some after only a few hits.

Really? I’ll check this week with the three girls who bought that RAM set to see if they held up since the second semester of golf classes start this weekend. If they come back for this semester I’ll confirm if the clubs have held up since they bought them.

In my Viper by Hippo Golf stand bag:
Driver: Cleveland HiBore 10.5° Fujikara reg. flex
Woods: 3- MacGregor NVG2 Fujikara reg. flex
Hybrids: 3 & 4-Taylor Made Rescue Mid
Irons: Titleist 775.cb w/Graphite Shafts (5-GW)Wedges: Cleveland 588 Tour Action SW & 60° lob Putter: Taylor Made Monza...

My wife played a couple of years with Callaways womens GES set. While they do look a little different, these six clubs made it very easy for her to get the ball up in the air and forward which was something she could not do at the time with a regular set of irons.
Callaway pre-owned offer these at a very low price. Very good for the beginner.

After being asked for quite a few years by my wife I relented and got her a set of Wilson Firestick Hybrid set. She loves them and even has begun to play with friends more and more. Great set at a great price for a beginner. That way if the desire fades you are not in for a ton of $$.

I figured since they were so cheap, and hearing those horror stories I stayed away. I figured you get what you pay for.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By xrayvizhen · Posted

      I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.

      Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
