Beginner trying to find info!!!!

Can anyone tell me about Nicklaus "The Bear" linear dynamics with offset? I bought them used for cheap and had them fitted to me @ 7 years ago. I changed jobs and never took up the game. Now i want to get serious about it, but wondering if i should keep these irons or go a different direction. Any advice is welcomed. Thank you in advance! God bless!

Haven't a clue about the clubs you reference but if you bought them 7 years ago, used, I think you should go in a different direction, like buy a used set off ebay if you don't have the cash, great deals there.

You may have a tough time coming up with someone that has experience with those irons. Jack was the best golfer but his clubs aren't widely available. If it had offset one could guess that it was a game improvement club, if so then in the last 7 years there have been big jumps in what's available in the SGI and GI irons.

Ping, Callaway, Cobra and Taylormade, to name a few all make great clubs that should easily fit your needs.

You'll really need to go to a big box store, such as Golf Galaxy, Golfsmith, Dicks. to name a few and ask to see some SGI/GI irons and see what you like, plus you'll be able to hit some and you can see what you like the best.

Nicklaus Clubs were more popular in the late 90's- early 00's.

We do not know your level play or what may suit you. If you are starting again, the tech has advanced, even for irons, in the last 6 years.

I looked your clubs up on Ebay, $33.00 for a full set, 3-PW, doesn't look like they are in high demand. They look more like a players iron not for someone who is starting out. As recommended above, seek out a good set of Super Game Improvement (SGI) or Game Improvement (GI) irons. Cobra Baffler irons with three hybrids can be had on Ebay for less then $300, more like $260. But go to a big box store and see what you like first.
