honestly you need to go a place and get some golf lessons. You dont have to spend a ton. Just go to like an indoor golf range. they have them there. You can pay for them by the session or get a package of like 5 or 10 or more. Then you can work on specific things like swing ... handeling..positioning. ect. good luck

umm are we supposed to guess or are you asking for recommendations.  I have Wilson Fat shafts, and a big bertha 12 degree driver and a NIke hybrid club.  read up on clubs on the internet and try some.  most golf courses you can rent or try things.  and if you dont golf yet buy a semi-cheap set and take lessons and you can always buy better clubs once you learn how you play and what you like.

The best answer that I can give you is DO NOT BUY CLUBS as a gift.!!!!\n\nI know thats not the answer you want but I promise it is the best.\nBuying clubs without knowing the golfer's abilities or preferences is like buying clothes for a teenager. It would be a guess if you got the right set.\n\nThe best advice is to get a GIFT card or to buy a golf-fitting session so a pro can determine the best set for that specific golfer. \n\nYou can spend up to $1500 for a good set of clubs but that does not mean you spent your money wisely.\n\nYou might be better off buying a $500 set and $1000 in lessons!

If I were you, I'd shop the used clubs in your local golf shop.  You can find clubs that are like new for half-price or less.  Also, keep an eye on the clearance racks.  There's a lot of good equipment there, too.

Try Golf Demension's or Dicks Sporting Goods. Some websites that looked pretty good were: \n\nhttp://www.allkidsgolfclubs.com/  \nhttp://www.jrgolfwarehouse.com/\nhttp://www.theworldofgolf.com/juniors.asp\n\nHope I could help :)

I WOULD LOOK AT HYBRID IRONS AND FAIRWAY WOODS, ADAMS GOLF I WOULD RECOMMEND THEY ARE DAM GOOD MANUFACTURES OF GOLF CLUBS, GET FITTED FOR THEM. LENGTH, LIE, GRIP SIZE, FLEX. BAD BACK OR NOT YOU NEED THE TOOLS TO GET YOU AROUND THE COURSE, HAVE YOUR NEXT SET BUILT TO YOUR GAME, NOT OFF THE RACK. ON YOUR BACK PROBLEM I DONT KNOW THE NAME OF THE COMPANY THAT MAKES THE MAGNETS BUT YAHOO SEARCH, JIM COLBERT ON THE CHAMPIONS TOUR SWEARS BY THEM, GRIP IT AN RIP IT

Since he's still a beginner, I'd suggest that you find him a [brand new] set within the US$300-500 range and you'll have a handful of choices off the rack, including the bag. [Note: it's okay to buy USED 'name brand' sets from pro shops, but a NEW set always gives extra encouragement to beginners.]\n\nAnd since you were able to save him the $$ difference from his original budget, also suggest that you take him to a few of your favorite courses or even the ones that you've been wanting to!\n\nIt's a win-win situation...

The clubs are fine the most important thing is making sure you have the correct one.  Trying out several and being fit is the key.  You have to find the club that looks good, feels good and does the job with your regular swing.  You can always sign up for a free golf lesson with one of your local PGA pros at www.playgolfamerica.com if your having trouble hitting them.  My first option would be have the checked out and switched out if it's not to late.

The best thing to do is go to www.playgolfamerica.com and sign up for a program called Link Up 2 Golf.  You can also sign up for a free golf lesson.  There is a improve your game section on www.pga.com that can help.  I have a golf group with a lot of information in the files part that can help you.

Best thing is for you to hit the local sports shop and get some assistance from the golf department associate. They are usually knowledgeable about the brands they sell and can handpick the best few for beginners. They usually have a small area where you can take a few practice swings...I know a Sports Authority near me that has an actual locked cage so you can take real shots into a net. There is no "best" brand out there because every person has a different body type, different stance/swing, and different comfort zone. Some like metal shafts, others don't. The set you "like" the most will be the "best" for you.

Your game is going to change a lot, it sounds like your going to be playing a lot.  May is free golf lesson month you can sign up at www.playgolfamerica.com to get a lesson with a local PGA pro.  I think a good 3 wood and maybe a Hybird would be the best things for you.  Even if you purchased the right driver for you now, it may not be the one for you by the end of the season.  Once you get down to the 90's you can start looking for a good driver.

Go to yahoo or google and type in "custom golf clone"\nYou can get clone clubs that are just as good as their counterparts for 1/4 of the price. Plus you get it custom fitted.

That is not a bad price at all as long as the clubs are in good shape.  As a beginner, you will get an excellent set of clubs for a fraction of the new price.
