I'm a duffer who plays maybe 3 or 4 times a month in the season. (Live in a norther climate). I usually shoot a stroke or two above bogy. I have an old hand me down set that is showing wear and tear and found this set at scheels http://www.scheels.com/shop/en/scheels-catalog/Orlimar-Mens-ATS-Nano-White-15-Pc-Golf-Club-Set-401698-OR07634-Y3 I have a small budget and was wondering if this would be a deacent set? Thanks.

Thanks.

First of all, welcome to the Sand Trap :beer:

These could be all right but , I would probably look at second hand sets first. If you don't like to practice you should look for the most forgiving set that you can stand to look at and if you put a lot of work into your swing and are practicing to improve then you should look for the most forgiving set that you can stand to look at. ;-)

Golf is hard and it's a lot more fun when you play with clubs that suit your abilities.

There is a ton of great info and free drills on this site that will help you improve your game.

Orlimar is nothing special. If you're not looking for anything but something that fits your budget, I guess they'll due. This IMHO is a set for a starter or someone who just wants some clubs to play once in a while with. You might as well keep what you have. Just regrip the Old sticks.

    • It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…
    • I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
