Clone Golf Irons
Any tips for a beginner regarding golf clubs?
I used to play golf before, played with a bladed Spalding set, which didn't turn out well, and never really hit the ball well. Now 10 years later, I find myself wanting to learn the game again.
I'm torn between 3 decisions:
Plan A is to buy a cavity back 7 iron and a wood, and learn from those 2 clubs. Once I re-learn, invest in a good set of used irons.
Plan B is to buy a cheap 2nd hand set, but the 2nd-tiered ones like Dunlop, Spalding, Wilson. Not exactly brand name from what my friend told me, but good enough.
Plan C was what a shop suggested, buy a whole set of clones, learn from them, and when I'm ready, buy the real deal.
Which of these would actually help me re-learn the game? Plan A seems to be a good investment just in case I find out that golf isn't my game. Plan B sounds like a good idea since after a few weeks, I can use these clubs to "practice" a round too. Plan C sounds nice since I'm playing a full set close to brand names.
What do you guys think?
I'm a re-beginner as well. I bought a $200 set of Wilson's from Target and haven't looked back. They are a great learning set, and you get every club you need and a bag (you may have to purchase a putter separately). As I have a progressed in my game, I purchased a better driver, putter, and wedges and I am now ready to start upgrading my irons.
With clones you still have to piece them together (you have to buy irons, woods, driver, wedges, putter, and bag separately). It’s costly for the beginning golfer who has to constantly replace lost balls.
Don’t just buy two clubs to re-learn the game, either. To get a true feel of the game you need options in your bag. I love the game because of those every once in a while shots I make with a wedge or low iron. It’s a great feeling to put a pitching wedge ten feet from the pin. If you only have two clubs in your bag, you limit those every-once in a while shots.
PLEASE DON’T BUY EXPENSIVE CLUBS (PINGS) LIKE THE ONE GENTLEMEN SAID. IT’S DUMB. IF YOU DO THAT YOU RUN THE RISK OF WAISTING MONEY ON SOMETHING YOU ARE NOT COMMITTED TO YET.
I hope I have helped. Let me know how your game progresses!

Williams Golf Gold Series FW32 Qualifier Irons 3-PW $2999.95 Williams Golf Gold Series FW32 Qualifier Irons The Qualifier iron series also feature design elements that originated from the Williams team of engineers.

The Gold Series from Williams Sports will target the golfer that is looking for something outside the traditional realm of golf club styling. This series will share the same technological and aerodynamic advancements that are the core foundation of the entire Williams Sports line. The Gold Series will separate itself from the other series by modifications to the cosmetics and finish of each product. The most noticeable and recognized difference will the exquisite 24 karat gold plating on all exposed metal surfaces. To compliment this finish, we have chosen a rich metallic color to bring out the luster of the gold plating. The Gold Series will be the perfect choice for the golfer that is looking for the combination of luxurious styling in a ultra-high performance product designed to perform at the high level. Features INCONEL Inconel is a nickel based material that is used by the Williams F1 team of engineers in their production of exhaust parts for the FW32 race car. Inconel is effective because of its ability to withstand extreme temperatures while maintaining its structural integrity. The key benefit that steams from this material is the fact it has a higher tensile strength than stainless steel, but due to its nickel base provides for a softer feel. This material is typically used in a machine or forging application which works well for golf equipment. All of these key attributes combined provide the reasoning for Williams Sports use of Inconel as its baseline material for the entire Qualifier series of irons. DENSIMET Densimet is a unique metal that is new to the golf industry and a by product of the Williams F1 technology. Densimet is the second heaviest metal in the world and is used in the FW32 race car to bring the car up to the minimum race weight, while also being used to provide additional traction based on the drivers style of driving.
