BreakingBadly

I'm new to this forum and golf. I've been playing golf for roughly a year now and just started taking the game seriously mainly because I've been an athlete my whole life and do not like sucking at anything sports related. However, I'm finding out the golf will take time and patience and I'm ok with that. I've always been a fast leaner when it comes to sports but after a year of pretty consistently playing i'm barley breaking 100. I'm really hoping to shoot in the low 90's or high 80's by the end of this year.

That's what I'm realizing. I was at Dick's yesterday and now that all the new models are coming in the old one's are being discounted dramatically. But I think I'm going to stick with the ping eye 2 irons since everyone seems to be at a consensus that they are fine to be starting out with. However, I may be in the market for a driver because some of these drivers are so inexpensive right now. I'm considering the callaway xr or x2 because it's like 129 bucks or something. Right now I play a nike ignite 450cc. I paid 20 bucks for it and it's been great the only thing is, I'm hearing some noise down by the hosel which i suspect isn't the best thing but the face isn't cracked or anything. It sounds like there is sand in it. Anyways, I appreciate all the feed back I'm new to site but really like the community of golfers and the fact I can get on here and really express any concerns or ask questions.

Thanks guys I really appreciate the feed back. The clubs are blue dot with zz lite shafts. I'm 5'll so I think they're fine and I don't really notice anything off when I hit them. I actually really love the pitching wedge from 80-95 yards out. I'm going to schedule my first lesson soon and I'll make sure to bring a recording device.

Just started playing golf a year ago and I'm now getting to a point were I'm taking my game seriously, even though I suck, and was wondering what would be a good set of clubs to go with. Right now I play Ping Eye 2. Should I get a more up to date club or just take some lessons. Right now I'm barely breaking 100. I plan on sticking with game improvement clubs just not sure which brand. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. I have an average swing speed of around 85,
