You might save on a starter set since the bag and all clubs will be included. But quality will not hold off for extended play.

Go witha reputable brand that is preowned. Make sureit is a forgiving game improvement set. Also, go to a golf storr and grt a quick and free wristt to floor meadurement and aaskhow much they think you should extend a standard set. Old but good drivers can be found iin used golf stores for cheap, like $40. Good iron sets can range from $100 to$200. Wedges and putters can be found for cheap too.

I wore out my strata set in 7 weeks. Cheap quality.

I did this with basketball too in college. Used a huge basketball on a regular hoop. No room for error. 9nce you go to a regular ball everything seems to go in course in golf, just like in basketball, most of the practice would be with what you use at gametime.

Interesting thread. Was wondering the same. If I practiced with blades, would my ball striking improve even though I am only a beginner? Of course I would play with GI irons. The blades would only be a training tool.

Glad you took the initiative to improve your health. Not enough people do that, no matyer how surprisingly easy it can be.

The stratas didnt last 7 weeks for me. Although I did use them 3 or 4 times a week hitting hundreds of balls eacj day. Im also pretty strong with a fast swing speed. THey are probably as good as any set for yhe price. Like some9ne told me, you get what you pay for. Adams seems like a much better set. Even better would be building a set, but you may have to buy used for some of yhe clubs.

I picked up a titleist 983k. Its heavy and awesome. Best part is that it was $45. Keeping the superfast too. Really liking the old 983k though.

Good idea. If I can find a used one for 50, great. if not, will use the one I have. Thanks

ITs stiff, so should be the right flex.

Thats a good suggestion that my teacher mentioned (new shaft). Because its so light though, my wife lioes it and I will probably shorten it for her. Your second suggestion is good too. My teacher just said I shouldnt even practice with it because it will feel so much different than the "right" club, so looking to pick up a cheap and decent one this week.

Ps - the 75 grams refers to the shaft I believe. I am a tall guy with long arms, so I think that is part of the reason the driver I have might be too light.

Hi, new golfer here. Have been practicing several times a week for 8 weeks. bought a taylormade superfast burner 2.0 because it was the cheapest decent club I found ($100 new). My teacher told me it was too light for me, and that I should go with something 75 grams for someone that is strong with a fast swing speed (I dont know what mine is). I'd appreciatr any suggestions for a decent driver at a decent price that would be a good fit for me. Will also be checking out used clubs in the meantime. Thanks.

I recently bought a $200 beginner strata set which had great reviews. lasted me 6 to 7 weeks. The irons were starting to bend at the hosel, and I ended up replacing the whole set, well, im in the process of that. So, if you arr planning to use them often, and or you swing pretty fast, 0

By the way, thanks for all the feedback. I got a lot of helpful feedback.
