well I just picked up a Ben hogan set of woods and I really like them.  I hope you have a store you can go to and hit the clubs before you buy them.  I went in to get a much more expensive Nike set but after hitting both I liked the ones I got alot better and saved some cash!

No, they are not held to the same strict tolerances as OEM clubs. You might have 5 clubs out of your set that do not have consistent lofts and lie....you might notice over a period of time that you always hit your 8 and 9 iron good and your 7 and 6 iron bad...\n\nJust for my piece of mind, I would spend the extra couple hundred and not have to worry about equipment being the culprit behind bad shots. \n\nGood Luck!

Every player hits their clubs differently and with a little practice you learn how far each one will go.  Sometimes the conditions on the course, or obstacles, will cause you to use different clubs from the same distance.  For example, if I'm hitting into a headwind, the ball won't go as far so I might hit a club that normally would travel farther than the current distance I am from the hole (the opposite is true when you have a tailwind).  Also, if the course is wet, or if there's a tree in your way, you might want to hit the ball lower or higher also changing your club selection.  Pro golfers can usually hit the same distance with a number of different clubs (it takes a lot of practice!).

I would suggest the Taylormade R7 460cc.  You may want to demo a couple of different shafts to see which one has the best flex for you.  It is an excellent club, and this comes from die hard Big Bertha man.  Once I tried the R7 there was no going back.  Demo one and then go buy it on Ebay and save the money.

Hey there.\n\nBefore you buy anything off of eBay, you might want to demo some clubs at the range.\n\nWhat I like, you might not. Trust me....my friend likes the Nike Ignite and I think it is garbage. Everyone is unique, so spend some time at the range. Most pro shops will let you play with a specific driver if they have a demo in house.\n\nIMHO the easiest club to hit is the Cleveland Comp 460, 9.5\nIt just goes!!! Nice and high and long. The secret with most clubs is the shaft. You can get that club on eBay for $150 2nd hand.

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.

I would recommend going to a sporting good store like      D ick's  or to a gold store like NY Golf to hit various clubs, and see whcih one is right for you. Then I would look to purchase the clubs or equipment on Ebay. I have saved 25-30% off of the cheapest prices I have seen in a brick and mortar shop, and I have hit the clubs so I know they are right for me.\n\nOther equipment is available at good prices as well

The typical lofts for irons range from 16 to 48 degrees. Modern day irons have lower lofts than their contemporaries from the old days, caused by the desire of the average golfer to hit the ball as far as the professionals. This was a difference in skill, but the equipment manufacturers were happy to comply. This resulted in the modern day pitching wedge to have a loft similar to an old 8 iron. Nowadays pitching wedges may have lofts up to 45 degrees, though the difference in distance between the professionals and average golfers remains.\nConsistent loft angles will give you more consistent distance, all things being equal. Your clubmaker can check those for you.\n\nWoods    Old Standard Loft Angle  Modern Avg.

I am a golf pro and I have the pleasure of trying alot of equipment.\n\nTrust me when I say this, the Nike SQ 3 wood off the deck is the straightest 3 wood on the market.  Comes out a little low and HOT.  The 5 wood is only 3 degrees different if you want something higher, almost the same distance.  \n\nThose rescues are not the best off the deck, but you will find them better than a 3 wood out of the junk or a fairway bunker.\n\nLets have a game sometime at Bushwood with Doctor Beeper!

Try Ebay...search for the types of clubs you have and see if you can find something comparable....

There are, unfortunately, probably a half-dozen ways to measure a golf club. One of the most accepted methods, though, is to place the club in playing position with the sole squarely grounded. Then place a metal ruler behind the shaft, down behind the heel of the clubhead. The length is indicated to the end of the grip cap. \n\nalso u may wanna check out this site for the appropriate golf shaft size u need... good luck.. :o)\nhttp://www.course-critics.com/

"YOUR" club will depend on your skill level, height, speed of swing, and preferred type of golf ball.\n\nIf you improve, and your swing changes, then you have to start all over again.  This is the premise behind the PING clubs.  It will never become perfected as everyone will blame their clubs, balls, or something.\n\nIgnore reviews.  It is like asking what type of aluminum can do you prefer(ignoring contents).  Whatever works for you is best! \n\nYou MUST TRY THEM OUT FIRST though.  Variations in shaft material will alter dpending on your swing strength etc.  \n\nREMEMBER, it is ONLY MARKETING, and therefore Dollars $$$$$$$$.  If you could buy the "right set" for $1,000,000, you'd be a billionaire in a week.  Some like Pepsi....others swear on Coke.  \n\nYOU MUST CHOOSE !

Great question in today's market you can only answer that question on the driving range.  I suggest you go to several demo days hit all clubs you can and have them fit you.  That is the only way to find the best for you.  I have several of the websites on my blog roll http://360.yahoo.com/pgamoffett each website has a place you can find local demo days in your area.  You can also go to www.playgolfamerica.com to sign up for a free golf lesson this month with a local PGA pro.  Last month was free club fitting.  I'm sure if you ask the pro they will help give you some recommendations on finding a driver and with demo day information.  \nGood Luck \n\nYou can also check out www.pga.com improve your game sections for more advise about finding the right club.

It all depends on what kind of golfer you are. Nike is a good caompany. Also taylormade and Callaway

Most average players hit a six or seven iron 150 yards. Add 15 yards for each extra club, (if that makes sense).  6 iron for 150 yards, 7 iron 135 yds, 8 iron 120 yards etc.\nIf you can hit a driver 220 yards, a three wood should be about 190, a five wood 180, seven wood 165.   Most golfers will say they hit everything further than I suggest.  Try to determine what club you need for 150 yards and work from there.   What Tiger woods does with his clubs is unbelievable.  He can hit a six iron about 220 yards and a Driver 360.
