Rule 1. Find golf clubs that match your level of play.

If you are a beginner, check out "game-improvement" clubs.
The object of the game is to hit straighter and farther.

The primary characteristics of game improvement clubs are perimeter weighting, large sweet spot and low center of gravity design.

The best advice that I can give you is to go to a reputable golf shop in your area and ask for a "golf fitting".

The golf fitter will suggest clubs based on your swing speed and your ability.

Make sure that they credit part or all of the cost for the fitting towards the cost of the clubs if you buy from them afterwards.
If they don't credit the cost of the fitting towards your purchase of clubs go to a different shop.

Here's a great article (and site) geared towards women golfers and club fitting: http://www.golfdigest.com/gfw/gfwequip/index.ssf?/gfw/gfwequip/gfw200603makeovermybag1.html

Here are a list of 8 sets that you might consider:

1. Wilson's oversize Staff Di5 iron is designed for the traditionalist golfer who is looking for forgiveness and feel. The Hope Scoring System is an excellent option for beginners: The eight-club flow set has everything you need--a driver, fairway wood, hybrid, long, middle and short irons, and two wedges--for only $300.

2. Callaway's Big Bertha Fusion iron will cost you--but it's worth every penny. A titanium face and synthetic back insert create an incredibly sweet-feeling club that guarantees distance and is forgiving on mis-hits. $190 per club. The stainless-steel X-18 is a sleeker version of the X-16--and even more forgiving than its predecessor. $140 per club.

3. Cobra's new Inertia Series irons come in two models for women. The 3400I/XH features a hollow head and is designed to launch very high for slower swing speeds. $110 per club. The 3100I/H launches a little lower and has a cavity-back design for the better player. $80 per club.

4. Taylormade's Miscela is hugely popular--and for good reason. A 10-club women's flow set that transitions from woods to hybrids to short irons, it's ideal for the beginner to intermediate player. $1,200 for 10 clubs. The rac OS is oversize, a little heavier and has a more advanced design to allow creative shot-making for the lower handicapper. Comes in a traditional set makeup. $120 per club.

5. Nike's NDS iron is perimeter-weighted and easy for better players to shape shots with; it's also a bargain at $75 per club. The Slingshot features lots of technology to help slower-swing-speed players launch the ball in the air. The wide sole helps create more solid contact. $113 per club.

6. Ping's i3+ is a serious player's iron designed to provide lots of feel and workability, and it has a multitude of custom-fitting options. $135 per club. For the intermediate golfer, the G2L set is more forgiving and includes high-launch hybrid long irons. $135 per club.

7. Nancylopezgolf designs its Albany 250 ST for players who want a full set of irons with easy-to-play cavity-back heads and soft shafts. $70 per club. Beginners should opt for the Ashley SE flow set, which comes with four woods, two hybrids, six irons and a cheaper price tag. $550 for 12 clubs.

8. Cleveland Golf's ta6 W iron features perimeter-weighting for forgiveness and stability, and is excellent for average players. $80 per club. The W-Series Launcher iron has a wide sole and a very low center of gravity to give slower-swing-speed players more launch and distance. $100 per club.

Good luck.

Best Value Golf Clubs

I normally wouldn't suggest a particular brand...( I play Ping or Cleveland woods, callaway irons, Cleveland wedges...all over the place) but it all really depends on what you like to hit, and you wont know that until you demo, shop, and compare...so I suggest that you go to a golf shop and have your swing analyzed, then hit different clubs...demo them on a golf course, play a practice round with them...then you can compare shop for what you want vs what you are willing to spend...if youre a beginner or a high handicapper I would suggest a game improvement iron such as a callaway big bertha, or a taylor made rac OS...there are of course many others...I am currently hitting callaway fusion wide soles and they are far too pricey for me to recommend knowing you could buy a whole quality set including woods and a bag for what those irons alone cost...so shop around, have your swing checked, compare and most importantly hit them on a course before you buy...good luck!

The easiest way to learn golf like a pro is by following "The Simple Golf Swing" program. It's primarily a 31 page eBook that teaches golfers how to make solid contact with the ball, how to avoid hitting fat, how to avoid slicing, how get more power, accuracy, and consistency in your swing. Consistency being the number 1 golf skill.

You not only get the eBook though, you also receive a ton of extra material including video, lessons on putting, driving, chipping, sand play etc. Here is their official site: http://www.golfswingguru.net

If you are a begginer, the best value clubs are anything made by Tour Edge. The Bazooka's are always on Golf Digest's hotlist. But they are clubs for begginers.

look on pre owned web sites for the irons there sell new for much lower prices. then get a nice putter like a scotty cam or the new muzzno. there about 300 then u should have some money for woods. i got a great driver at a local sports store for 150

i would invest in a great set of irons and putter

dont get a super expensive driver
cuz its the hardest club to hit
and it wont help as much


mizuno irons are pretty nice with a nice odysey putter should put you around 800

You might try Lynx or Wison Staff.

Yeah sure people snicker when they see my Wilson's, but then I kick their butts all over the course.
