Answer 1

Fifty will get you back into the swing of things but  the third set sounds good with a golf cart thrown in. You have the start of enjoyment ( and frustration) right at your fingertips. Go for it!

Answer 2

Golf clubs have two major features that directly influence how far and how high the ball will go when hit correctly with each club. What you are looking at in the illustration is a full set of golf clubs, including the woods and the irons. Beginning on the left are the wood clubs (larger heads) numbered from 1 wood, 3 wood, 5 wood and 7 wood. Progressing the irons (smaller heads), starting from the left, are the 3 iron, 4 iron, 5 iron, 6 iron, 7 iron, 8 iron, 9 iron, 10 iron, and 11 iron (also known as the sand wedge). Note that there is a difference in length of one-half inch between each club in the set.

Remember from your high school physiccs class that the longer lever, the greater the force? It's OK if you do not remember, because I am reminding you now. With a longer club, applying the same amount of power, you will be able to generate more club head speed. The result will be a longer shot. Going back to high school physics again, the loft of the club face will determine the angle at which the ball bounces off the club face. Picture the extension of the magnet on the club face as representing the initial flight of the ball.

To gain a graphic perspective of the loft, or slant, of club faces, set a tee on the face of the club, with the flat end of the tee on the face. For the purpose of illustration we have placed a magnet on the club faces of a 10 iron and 4 iron.

In most sets there will be a difference of four degrees of loft between clubs progressively through the set.

Answer 3

Be a man. Use blades. Whatever they turn out to be.

Answer 4

They are all c**p. You will not be happy with any of these sets...

Answer 5

I wouldn't recommend any of those, you need to be playing equipment made in the last 2-3 years.  And don't listen to the dude that says play blades, even a good percentage of pros don't use blades any more.

Answer 6

I would go with the 50dollar clubs as none a new wait to you can play again maybe replace the driver at a later date as I did.  But it is personal if you like the look then buy it because if it feels and looks good then why not use it?

Answer 7

powerbuilts for 50 are the best deal , of all the sets these should have highest price . very good investment . great price . pick up asap . yhey wont last long .
