Well thought I would drop in and say hi. I am from Fargo, ND, and I just recently got back into golfing after about a 4 year hiatus. I went golfing on vacation in Texas, and the bug bit me. I am an extremely high handicapper, lefty, and am golfing with a cheap set of clubs I bought probably 6 years ago. I am not consistent at all with my irons, and I don't know whether to blame it on my cheap (less than 200 for the whole set, driver, 3 wood, 3 and 4 hybrid, and 5 through PW irons, "ProTech" brand) clubs, or my swing. I went to Austads golf here in fargo and swung some Ping g20s, and Taylormade Rocketballz irons, and I got to say, both of them I seemed to hit well. Fairly consistent at 160 yards with a 7 iron with the g20s, and with the RBZ 7 iron, i was usually around 170, with a few bombs past 200. I am 6' 4", so the longer RBZ's seem more comfortable to me, and the price is more comfortable to me as well. I would really like to get a set of game improvement irons, as my cheapy set seem to be knockoffs of some blades of some sort, not forgiving at all. My main questions is, do I get a set of irons now, or should I hold out and get a few lessons and see how I hit my cheap clubs? I can get 3 sessions for 90 bucks at the local sports bubble. I hit my driver fairly well, slight fade, but fairly consistent. After hitting a set of good clubs, its so hard not to want to buy a set of new irons. Thanks for reading and so far I am really enjoying this site.
