I was just looking for some opinions on the Dunlop Vision Set ( http://www.tgw.com/customer/category...TEGORY_ID=6139 ).

I've searched the forum and have not found much information regarding this set. I am brand new to the game of golf, I've only hit the ball a few times at driving ranges and I'm looking to get into golf. I'm looking to buy a set of clubs that I can learn with but will not break the bank. I plan on taking lessons soon or at the beginning of next season. If there are any other sets that I should look at, please let me know. I am not looking to spend anymore than $250 on a set.

I bought it a couple of months ago to restart the game after a 30 year absence. They're working out great for the price but I did get a much better putter and the set doesn't come with wedges so I got a LW, GW, and SW. After my skills get better I'll upgrade and use these as a backup. For the price I would recommend them to any beginner.

Theres no way you'll get something more complete if you're only looking to spend 2-250. Thats typically what a cheaper set of irons will run you. Being as this includes woods, the bag, putter ext. if you're just looking for something to use for a few years this would be it.

In the bag:
Driver: r7 quad v2 stiff
3-Wood: XLS
Hybrid: X
Irons: CG Golds 3-GWSW: x forged 56/13LW: Vokey sm 60/.08Putter: Callie 35''Ball: pro v1

Thanks for the replies.

I think I've narrowed the decision down to either the Dunlop Vision set or the Jack Nicklaus set that can be found at Costco. Anyone have any suggestions on which set I should go with? I'm leaning more towards the Dunlop right now, but if the Nicklaus set is better, I would go with that.

Well I decided to order the Dunlop Vision set from TGW. I managed to get the clubs, balls, a glove (gloves actually since it was a 2 pack), and some tees all for less than the price of the Jack Nicklaus set.

You'll need a wedge or two. Check out Pinemeadow's wedges for $19 each. That should keep you in your budget.

      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?
