    Default Any golfers here? I got questions

    So I'm looking at getting into golf since I've got some friends who golf brother dad etc. I'm pretty terrible at driving always seem to slice it but still enjoy it and want to actually practice and get better.

    So my question is what would be a good set of irons, woods and driver for someone like me. Little to no exp.

    I bought a Ram set that I still have from Sports Authority. It is a good starter set.

    If you like the sports, just buy clubs you love/fits. It is like firearm. Good to buy one that you like.


    Depends on your age, swing speed, angle, height, etc, it can determine what type(s) of club you need.
    I started with PING system long time ago, because they have (OR use to have) color dot system for semi-custom fitting.
    It will most likely tell you what kinda club you need based on your height, torso size, hand etc.
    Swing speed will determine which shaft you need the most.

    My dad was a golf pro at a country club before I was born. He has had 3 sets of clubs in 40 years. It really has nothing to do with the clubs as long as they arent 15+ years old. There are really good brands at really good prices on this website. Stick with brands you have heard of, ie... Titleist, Ping, Callaway, Taylormade.

    Then go out and talk to Jason at the Links, assuming your location is correct on your avatar. He is awesome. Its a challenging course for being an executive course. Id go out with you and give you pointers, I dont play as often as I would like but I can at least give you some things to think about.
    My EDC: Handcuffs, Bandana, and Ball Gag.

    If I'm ever at a party and the cops come to arrest people. Ill blindfold myself, throw the ball gag in, handcuff my hands, and hide in a closet. Police never arrest hostages!

    I have a set in the trading post. Turn key operation ready to go. Better than the sets you can buy at the big box stores for $350.

    I know nothing about clubs but I cured my slice. I played a par 3 course in the Philippines and could NOT hit the fairway. I googled it and found an extreme grip. My caddie told me it was all wrong and to not use that grip. I told her to step back and I arrowed it straight down the fairway. My advice is to do what works for you.

    I would rather skydive and go in than golf.

    A golf club is a waste of a rifle range.

    Golf sucks.

    I could go on and on, but I wont.

    I like irons with a serrated rear, fiber optic front. I prefer walnut stocks. Driver...I like to drive myself so I never saw a need for a driver.
    Good Shooting, MarkCO

    I would say start cheap. I have a set of irons you can have. Nothing fancy, but you'll decide fairly quickly if it's a sport for you. Pm me if you are interested.
