I just started golfing with a friend’s fiancé this year and we have been out about 5 times. He is at a similar skill level to me (shooting in the 100 – 120 range), and he is in desperate need of new clubs. He is currently using a set that was apparently inherited by his grandfather, and until our last round, he thought there would be limited gain in using a new set of clubs. On out last round the shaft on his 3 iron snapped off just above the head mid swing sending the head about 50 yards down the fairway. After this, he admitted he could really need a new set.
His fiancé is asking me to recommend a set of irons that she can buy online for his birthday that is coming up next month. He is just starting to get serious about golf this year, intends to keep playing quite a bit, and thus is not interested in a cheap beginner set (such as a $300 club and bag combo set). Although, buying a something that is a couple years old at a significant discount rather than the “latest and greatest” would be a great option. I thought a great present would be a full iron set (4 or 5 to SW) and leaving him to upgrade his putter, driver, hybrids, etc over time. His fiancé has a budget that would max out at $500.
Although I spend a lot of my time on the forum, I don’t think I know enough to make an educated recommendation for him. I am hoping I could get some input from you guys on what would be a good recommendation. The best thing that I have found so far is a Burner 2.0 (4-PW with AW) set for $399 at Golfsmith:

Any suggestions?
