So my parents told me that i can either get, a)xbox360 with halo3 b)Electric guitar with amp or c)new irons for my golf set.


So A) is obviously something that i would like to get, i currently have a original xbox and halo 2 and i would love to get halo 3.Alot of money about $400

b) electric guitar, one of my favorite insturments and i would love to learn how to play. i have an acoustic i suck on it but i have some sort of "craving" for an electric.probably around 350 including an amp idk.

c) Im a golfer, and for the past 2 years i have been using an okay set with some extra callaway woods and a 2ball putter. I would like to get some irons.I need these new irons for my golf team this coming spring, because my current ones are a little short. Nike Ignites 4-AW for $399.

Like i said I can probably only get one for now and get the other ones later over a span of time, but which would you get, if you were in my shoes?

In my Warbird Bag,
I have
Burner Driver 460cc 9.5* Stiff
Three and Five Woods
Precise- 21* and 24* hybridsCCi Cast Irons-4-AW 52* and 56*/14 Vokey 60*/8and i play TP Black or ProV1

what callaway irons are they? The Nike ignites aren't very good irons, i would advise you to get the electric guitar.

Get some irons. If you want to play on the golf team, your clubs have to fit you.

Well, with my experience, I'm going to suggest skipping (a) entirely. I wasted too much time at your age in front of a computer. Get out and do something that is at least mentally stimulating. This leaves (b) and (c). If your current irons don't fit you, and you intend to play on the golf team, I'd suggest getting irons. I won't suggest the Nike Ignites; I would suggest asking a pro -- or at least your coach -- for a suggestion on the brand. If you get a chance, get the pro to fit you, unless you're expecting to continue growing.

Option A is very tempting.

Anyway, like others said Nike Ignites is not a good irons set. There are a lot of good irons out there for $400 (either new or used). I don't know how good are you with irons, but if you're good enough then look for something that is still playable between mid-low handicap irons. But I think you should wait a little bit longer, because winter season is coming. Hopefully, you'll get more better deals. Edit: Here for good deals visit this site . Try the Fusion irons, I've got one and they're amazing.
What's in the bag:

I play guitar and I play golf (not very well). If you are looking to make the golf team, I'd go for irons. You can learn to be a great guitar player on an acoustic and a crappy one at that too. Golf seems to require better equipment in order to hit a new level of play. I don't like video games and I'd suggest getting something that will either get you outside or utilizing your creative juices.

Good luck and happy strumming/swinging.

What's in my bag:
and Spalding...Old clubs...probably from the 70's
Go Gators!
I play music too: http://www.myspace.com/therecycledcitizen

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
