Hi,

I am planning to start Golf-ing, should I get a beginner clubs or not?

Or, is it better to get the pro kits? Rolling Eyes

first of all, I am of the view that there is no such clubs that will be able to serve one for the longest time.

so my take is that if you realli beginner....go for those which the manufacturer categorize as ' forgiving ' or max forgiving......then start fm there. Brand wise, is very individual...

that is not to say that one cannot go for ' pro' or 'tour' categorized equipment...just that be mindful, how much training investment are you going to invest in.

Sorry, but pardon me as I am really new to it.

What's the difference between beginner clubs and those pro ones?

They call it beginner's club but its really just.... golf clubs! They are suppose to assist you in your early days as a golfer to firm up your swing. One feature is that "beginner's" club has a wider sole and its suppose to help you launch the ball easier.

Again... there are no pro clubs... these are just clubs that the pros prefer or endorsed. They are usually look "smarter" and they use either CB or MB clubs to help them shape their shots. I know the explanation is short but I hope the simplicity helps.

Try getting a regular club to start with. There are plenty out there in the market. Good luck.

if u are able to borrow clubs from your friends, do so.... try out first then see if u wan to spend on a set...

I think when u talk abt beginner set you mean those complete sets... I would not go for such set because you may like other putter or driver. And if you want to sell, the whole set hv to go
