Question:

Buying Quality Golf Clubs?

by  |  earlier

0 LIKES UnLike

I'm a beginner at golf, but basically I have the idea of the fundamentals. However, when it comes to buying golf clubs, I'm a sucker at that. I specifically want to find your own opinion on one of these golf club brand names:

Wilson

Dunlap

Acuity

NIKE

Taylor Made

Callaway

Mizuno

What I want to buy is a half set, but I want something that's durable and affordable at the same time.

*Additional: I'm 12 years old, and I'm 5'1". The length between my wrist and the floor is 27".

  1. acuity is a good starter brand. but if you want them to last you like 5 years i sugest eather nike, callaway or taylor made.


  2. Callaway because they only foucus on golf , Wheras Nike , dunlop,and mizuno concentrate on random other thing . Dunlop even makes car TYRES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  4. My motto, In Nike I trust.  I play Nike products driver to ball.  However, that doesn't mean that there are not other quality products out there.  I've played Mizuno irons and they are nice.  The same goes for TaylorMade and Callaway.  Of the others mentioned, Wilson is affordable and quality.  

  5. If you are 12 years old, you'll probably grow in the next couple of years. So ... don't spend a lot of money. I'd get a full set of used clubs before going for a half set of good clubs. Then, in a couple of years, you can move up if you still like it.

    Any of the brands mentioned probably would work.  

  6. Dunlop are not what they once were, I'd steer clear. f you go Wilson, get the Wilson Staff clubs, they are much better. Not heard of Acuity.

    The others are big brands in their own right and are good clubs, but if you're still growing, do as another poster suggested and buy used for now, as you'll eventually grow out of them unless you are golf's Gary Coleman.

    Also, it wouldnt hurt you to try some Cleveland, Ping, MacGregor, or Titleist clubs. tey are all good quality.

  7. I'd discard Dunlap and Acuity for starters...but I, like several others have mentioned, would look at used clubs from a quality brand before plunking down large dollars for new clubs.  If you end up liking golf you can play them for several yrs...if you don't....Than you can resell them and  recover at least part of your investment.
