Good morning folks,
I am VERY new to the game of golf, other than driving some friends crazy at the driving range. I apparently swing a golf club like a baseball bat and outdrive them pretty easily and typically its a very straight shot. Otherwise I have ZERO golf experience. In my job; sales, I get asked to play quite a lot and make up excuses as to why I can't (really its because I never have and i'm not trying to look like an idiot in front of clients).
Anyways, I am looking for a good set of irons to start with (used is fine and actually preferred) that I can learn and "grow" with. I don't have a super strict budget but if I could be in the irons in the mid 200ish range or so i'd be happy. I've been looking on a few sites like globalgolf and ebay but with so many options, its very daunting for a novice.
If its relevant I am 6' tall, read a few things about club length etc. The local golf shops have been sadly ZERO help other than trying to shill $1000+ iron sets.
Any suggestions for an errant noob?
TLDR: Completely new guy, mid $200ish range for a good starter set of irons that I can play with for years until I get better.
