OK, thanks! I'll settle down for the Adams set then. Now, I need to choose between those two options I described in the thread-starting post. Any advice?

Oh, that's good :) That's the exact same set except it's stripped down (7 clubs instead of 14 clubs), I've considered this one, too. However, you can get it for 400-450$ so 200$ more is not that much for twice as many clubs. Would you recommend the A7OS set or would you choose something else if you had the chance? She's already had a 2-month test-period and she's pretty sure she's going to stick with it, that's why we decided to buy a more expensive set. Thanks for the suggestion, though. @ET-Taylor, delav - the reason why I chose Adams is because they won women's hybrids and super game improvement irons Golf Digest Hot Lists 4 or 5 times in a row. Is the Hot List trustworthy? I mean, Callaway and TaylorMade are definitely big. I have a TaylorMade set myself. But in this case, are they better than A7OS?

I'm looking for ladies' super game improvement sets. Adams Idea a7OS sets seem to have good reviews. What do you think about this set (650$) EDIT: you have to click 'specs' to see the detailed info Or do you think this set would be better (same price). I'm leaning toward the first option, although I'm a bit worried about the 44*PW-54*SW gap - but I guess I could just get a 50* gap wedge. The second set seems to have way too many woods and the gap still remains. Or do you think it's just not a good idea to buy integrated sets (although I like the idea of skipping the hassle of days of choosing, searching, placing multiple orders and, in the end, paying a higher price )

By very rarely I meant I'm on a real golf course 4-5 times a year, although I go to the driving range at least twice a week. Oh, and I completely forgot, I had the distance professionally measured last year on a longest-shot contest. I wasn't very comfortable with drivers back then, so I decided to use my $20 *5 wood. I won with a score of 234.6 yards as far as I remember.

Great, thanks a lot for helping me out! I've just ordered a lob wedge.

I bought a TaylorMade R7 set on eBay a while ago because of the great price. Unfortunatly, the set includes 4-9 irons and a 50* approach wedge + a 55* sand wedge (9 iron - 40*). I don't seem to have any problems with long shots. I can hit the approach wedge 90-110 yards and my 9 iron 125-145 yards. I mostly want to improve my game around the green - by this I mean 10-40 yard with a lot of backward spin. The approach wedge is almost like a pitching wedge. The sand wedge is almost like a gap wedge. Now, should I look for a used 45* R7 pitching wedge on eBay, shell out $130 ( ) for a 46* Cleveland wedge or something similar, get an unused Cleveland CG12 for 50$ (great price, but the loft is 48* - 2* loft difference doesn't seem much), buy a 60* lob wedge, or save $$$ and stick to the current configuration?

I think I have a problem with my shots being too long. My handicap is so high because I very rarely play on a real golf course (nearest golf course... 100 miles away + no free time), but I visit my local driving range fairly often. Believe me or not, call me a liar, whatever, I don't care, but when I take my 10.5* driver out of the bag, the ball usually hits the back net (275 yards). I sometimes hit my 9 iron at 155 yards (140-145 on average). I'm starting to suspect that the someone must have gotten the yardage wrong on the driving range.

I think I hit 300+ yard drives (letting the ball roll :), but that's only a guess - the ball usually hits the back net @ 275 yards on my local driving range.

I'm 18 and I've been playing since I was 10 or so. But I hadn't been serious about golf before 2007.
