Need advice for buying first set of Golf Clubs?
I’m in my early 20’s and wanted to start getting more serious about playing golf. I’ve played 5 or 6 times in the past couple of years and I’m tired of paying to rent clubs. I’m looking to buy a pretty nice set but don’t know where to start, what brand, sizes, and how to get a good deal. I’m a lefty so it is a little more challenging. Thanks for your help
I’m six feet tall or so and wondered if club lengths and sizes were pretty standard unless you are really tall or really short?
I disagree with a little of the answering… If you are planning on golfing seriously, and want “a pretty nice set”, go and see a pro to be properly fitted. If you have clubs that fit you and your swing, golf will be less frustrating and more enjoyable for you.
Play around with different clubs, find something you like and are comfortable swinging, be it in a box set (of which I am not a fan) or other, and take your time.
Proshops and major retailers will have sets of all levels, as well as demo clubs which may have only been hit in the comfort of a driving range, and which you can get a great deal on.
Good luck!
