Hello I need help choosing a new set of golf clubs. I am 20 in 2 months and have been playing golf since I was 10 and have been okay at it and I really enjoy it. My first set of clubs were a miss match of clubs and then my second set of clubs I bought were a set of Wilson clubs. Ever since I bought them I have been unhappy with them lucky I only payed $100 for them. I can't seem to find anything about them online all I know is they say Wilson County Tour on them and they look quite modern. The woods are to round with no loft they irons are graphite and are very hard to hit and the wedges are pretty bad to. The only thing good about this set is the hybrid. Has anyone heard anything about this set? I don't think that I am bad because I can hit good shots I just think that is the clubs.  I usually only play 9 holes and score around 40 on a par 32 at Safety Beach Golf Course in Melbourne Australia. I am looking to get a new set of clubs that will hopefully improve my game. I want to get a set of steel irons as I hate the Graphite. What should I buy? I am looking at getting a new driver woods hybrid irons and wedges and a putter preferably all the same brand my budget isn't to low but I don't want to spend to much a bit over a grand at tops. Thanks in advance to anyone that can help!

Welcome to the site @Billy66681

I would recommend going to a golf store and hitting a bunch of different irons and woods.  Tell the proprietor you are looking to buy a set and want to try a lot.  Most good stores will let you.  Then, I would recommend they fit you when you decide to buy.  If cost is an issue, I would look at used irons sets and woods as these can be great bargains.

It is hard for us to tell you what to buy because we are not you!  The clubs have to feel, sound and look good to you and meet your budget.

Best of luck.

      Looking for a Possible Equipment Switch

      By WUTiger · Posted

      You might also consider a tune-up lesson. Check and see if anything in your set-up or basic swing is holding you back. I have been playing for more than five decades, but on occasion I've had to make swing tweaks due to age, loss of flexibility, etc. You don't have to reinvent your swing. A couple of static set-up changes might really help out.

      Minimum Exercise for Strength and Muscle Growth

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Good advice. In general, you want to take whatever weight you are lifting to a couple of reps before failure, for muscle growth. There are other tactics for PT related stuff. I would trust your PT person.  For muscle growth, you can go like 30 reps to failure. It is tougher to gauge. Also, it takes 2x as long to do the same number of working sets per week if you are doing 15 instead. It is way less efficient, but your case is special because of the injury/aggravation to the hip.

      Ever Get Paired up With a Twosome Including a 2 Year Old?

      By WUTiger · Posted

      Several years ago I got paired with a twosome of golfers, one of which had a maybe 5-year-old son with him. The kid had a putter and a 7i with him, and on some holes he would drop a ball near the green, chip on, and putt. If the kid started to get distracted, the dad would ask, "Do you need to rest?" The kid would nod yes, and then take his dad's seat riding in the cart for a couple of holes. It was a slow day, and the kid was polite and friendly. We got through 18 just fine. (If it had been a crowded course day, I'm sure it would have been less pleasant.)

      Minimum Exercise for Strength and Muscle Growth

      Caution for the seniors on weight training: Listen to your body. (I'm 75) I got a recent session with an orthopedist after a training-related injury. I put too much weight on a new resistance machine at the gym and ended up with bursitis in my left hip. Of course, it's the hip I dislocated back in 2023. I have my first physical therapy session tomorrow. I remarked that some days I can do 45 lbs. chest press - two sets - without much effort. But other days it drops down to 30 (😩) with just one set. (Complicating factor: I had digestive problems in this fall and lost about 20 lbs., with slip in muscle tone.) Orthopedist said that I want to feel some resistence, but that I should go with lots of reps with manageable weights rather than trying to set some sort of lift-pound record. I'm sure I'll get some refinements on lifting during tomorrow's PT.
