Hi all,
I'm almost afraid to ask this question, as with many forums I assume the typical "beginner" questions accrues regularly, but I'm still gone give it a try, as you all seem very nice.
I'm 29 from Germany and started the great game of golf about 2 month ago by taking my first lessons and getting my "golf license".
Afterwards I got pretty hocked and try to play 2-3 times a week or more if time lets me.
As part of the beginner membership in my club they give you a few used clubs as rentals. In my case a i7 Cobra S2 Max, i9 & SW Silverline TC-41 (also a Utility Wood 24° which I don't really use) and of course a putter.
With those three irons and putter I play around a 125, with the i7 being my favorite, which I hit around 130 yards.
Generally I'm happy with all that, but of course with all those shiny clubs around, I can't help but question myself if some good second hand irons would improve my game and help me get better.
On the other side I keep hearing to wait before buying new clubs, to prevent spending money twice, since in one year from now I might need something different.
Therefore I would like to hear from your experience and seek for your advice.
Would you just get some cheaper second hand clubs now to have a bit more variety or wait longer?
Also I'm currently sticking to Irons since I was told to stay away from Hybrids and Drivers, since they might worsen my swing.
Is that good advice?
Looking forward to any feedback.
