  1. Ended up just going with this wedge. I was already over budget so though I'd go with something cheaper that matched the irons I picked up a couple weeks ago.
  2. I ended up just going with the 11.5. I'm going to work on hitting the 15 degree 3w and eventually try to move up to the driver. I felt like there wouldn't be a big enough difference between my driver and 3w if I got a 13 degree loft on my driver. I also got this 4 hybrid to help me on long par 4 and 5's since I'm never able to hit a wood or driver off the fairway. Thanks for the help everyone.
  3. So I should probably go with at least a 11.5 degree loft then? Do you guys recommend going all the way to a 13? I don't have access to a launch monitor so I won't be able to figure out what loft I need. Like I said though, I usually can't even hit the ball of the tee.
  4. Thanks for the help everybody. Here is what I'm now looking at getting now. It's a little over what I was wanting to spend but it's not too much. Driver Fairway Wood with a loft of 11.5 Wedge They also have a used driver of the same type that's about 15 dollars cheaper but the loft is 10.5. Would I benefit from the loft being 11.5 vs 10.5? And I could also get a driver with a loft of 13. Would that be too high? Like I said, I'm pretty strong but having trouble even getting the ball of the tee and am not really worried about an extra ten or fifteen yards, I'm just trying to get it 200 plus and into play. What do you guys think? And should I be worried that the fairway wood is only in "good" condition?
  5. I saw that same deal but the loft on it was 10.5. They offer that club in lofts of 10.5 11.5 and 13? Would I benifit a whole lot more from a loft of 11.5 or 13 as opposed to a 10.5 if I'm having trouble even getting the ball off the tee? And I'm looking at the same type of club for my fairway wood and it has a loft of 15. Would that be a good forgiving fairway wood?
  6. Also, I might be able to go all the way up to $150 or $175 for the rest of my clubs. My parents said they'd help me out if the clubs were substantially better for a little bit more.
  7. Thanks for the help everyone, and I'm not spamming. I don't have any big-box golf stores near me, as I just have a bunch of pro shops around where I live. Bullitt5399, I will look into those clubs and see if I can find them for those prices. Are there any other clubs that people can suggest that are extremely forgiving and easy to hit for a beginner? And what all websites would you guys recommend? I've never bought clubs online before, but it looks like I'm going to have to do that. Thanks again. edit: I'm looking at some of the drivers from Global Golf, and what loft and flex should I get? Like I said, I'm pretty bad and have trouble getting the ball in the air off the tee, but I'm pretty strong.
  8. ? I'm not spamming all. I'm seriously asking about these clubs...
  9. Last semester in college, I got all golf clubs stolen. They weren't great clubs, but they were a decent complete set ( Link to old clubs) So instead of going the complete set route again, I decided to build up my set by buying everything individually. For Chirstmas, my parents got me a set of used taylormade rac cgb ( Link to irons ) from a pro shop for $200 dollars, and I found a great deal for a new Odyssey white putter for $60 dollars ( Putter Link ). So now I still need a driver, some fairway woods, and a sand wedge. The problem is, I only have around $100 dollars to get the rest of these clubs. I went on amazon and was able to find all of these clubs for under a $100 total, and they all got pretty good reviews. I'm really an awful golfer and have trouble even getting off the tee box on most holes, and have to end up hitting irons most of the time. I broke the last driver I had, because I constantly hit the ground with it while I was at the driving range. I shoot around 115, so you can picture the type of golfer that I am. I'm reluctant to spend a lot of money on a driver especially because I'm afraid I'll break it again. The following are the clubs that I am looking at getting to complete my set: Driver 3 Wood sand wedge chipper (I'm especially awful right around the green and a friend of mine had one of these and it really helped me so I'm wanting to get one) What are you guys thoughts on the clubs that I have listed? Will I just be throwing away a $100 by getting these? I'm a super casual player, but I will be taking a golf class next semester in college where we play once a week since I've been able to finish up all my other electives. The reviews from amazon are legit for these clubs, as I've looked at the history of the reviewers and they're not just getting paid by the companies to positively endorse their products. So what do you guys think? For an awful golfer like myself, will these clubs be alright?
