Im a beginner and have been reading a lot and searching for clubs....i have $200-300 to spend and just found this deal on used clubs in excellent condition for $285

The irons are TaylorMade R7 CGB Max and have Dynamic Gold S300 shafts. Includes 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, Pitching Wedge. Sand Wedge is the Nike SV Tour 56 degree loft.

Driver is Nike SQ 460 10.5 degree loft and 3 Wood is Nike SQ 15 degree loft. Hybrid is the Cleveland Golf Halo 22 degree loft. Woods and hybrid have stiff graphite shafts.

Putter is the TaylorMade Rossa Sebring Sport-1.

Any input would be greatly appreciated!

Welp, the irons are worth about $150.00, if in really good cond. tops. I would be a bit concerned about the S300 shafts, as they are stiff, and may not be suited to your needs. Not sure about the other clubs. I can say that my Son had the R7 irons, and were easy to hit, but his swing speed required them.

If your able to try them out, I'd suggest doing so. Also, the iron's should last you for 2 to 3 years. As a new golfer, most likely the driver, and 3 wood are going to be the most challenging clubs to hit properly, so keep that in mind. That's about all I can offer.

Let us know what you decide.

I've bought from Global a few times, and was happy. I suggest looking at these TM R7 clubs.   http://www.globalgolf.com/golf-clubs/1004132-taylormade-r7-iron-set/used/ You don't have to buy a complete set, you can buy clubs individually, and get the best deals.

    • I have an update… I don't have much of a response, because the fact that they would ADD the numbers for the lead and trail shoulder together… I mean, wow. I was giving them too much credit. Nobody would think to assume they were doing THAT. That's beyond comical. One of the biomechanists I talked to put it this way: "So if I squatted down and went from 180 to 90 deg knee angle, then I would say 180 deg range of motion because I have two knees?" I'd type more (maybe), but honestly, I'm laughing a bit too hard. 🤣 Update: Mini Manavian blocked me on Instagram, so I cannot see his post showing Bryson with about 50° of range of motion (with a driver) from P4 to P7, and 75° only if you go out to the mid-follow-through. What a terrible loss for me. 😉 
    • Thanks, interesting to read. The swing is definitely very timing dependent. I hit it consistently I guess but consistently bad.    
    • I've shot 91-74 on the same day before. Couple of years ago played a two round tournament on Bethpage Black. I shot 72 in the first round and 90 in the second. First round I played very well. Second round I played okay, but had about 5 shots that hit the lips of bunkers and bounced down into them. A couple of those wound up in footprints - I was unamused - and I failed to get them out. Anyway - lots of bunkers and my bunker play isn't great and then add a couple of footprints and me getting pretty tired and it added up to a lot.  Only you can really tell though what's causing the variance. It might be that your swing is very timing dependent and when it's timed well you play well and when it's not then it goes all over the place. In that case, some lessons and working on your swing could be the key. If it's more that you tend to feel like you hit it fairly consistently, but you have days where the shots come off and days where they don't, then that's more likely a course management issue. If that's what you need to work on, then you could read Lowest Score Wins and build a plan of attack based on that.  Rest assured though that a pretty big range from high to low is fairly common. Even PGA Tour players often have 18-20 shot spreads from best to worst rounds in a season. It's a common affliction among golfers.
