My advice is to buy a good quality USED set of last years model. Every year the mfgs come out with the latest and greatest that is gong to make you better than Tiger used to be. Those clubs in a year will be worth about HALFFFF..In the end one suspects that after a number of years last years model will once again be the newest, latest and greatest. On a set of used last years model you can easily spend 500. Also buy a NAME BRAND like Ping, Callaway, Titleist, Hogan etc. they will hold value after the initial depreciation.

I would probably find a Golf Store in your Hood and go and hit the demos in the store to get some idear of what you like. Check his USED clubs section and hit with them. Ebay is another good source of clubs..

I have a preference for the Ping EYE Irons, Callaway or Titelsit Drivers and Titleist Putters. Not that I was ever any good at the game. Ping has a colour coded system on their Irons in which each colour is designed for a persons specific height. I also had aqquired a set of Eye 2's in BECU..
