Hi Toyo, welcome to the forum, and your girlfriend too!

Buying your first set can be a scary experience, but it doesn't have to be. Good used clubs are available from a lot of places that you can actually walk into and try, stores, not just ebay or internet locations. The staff in the national chain stores may vary by location as to their expertise in fitting you, but generally, they can help you find something that will be comfortable as you develop a sound swing.

I would suggest someplace like Edwin Watts, Golfsmith, Golf Galaxy, or whatever local shops of the same sort might be in your part of Canada. I know a lot of people start with a set that only includes something like a 3 wood, maybe a high loft hybrid and a 5-9 iron, plus a sand wedge and a putter. Some beginner sets by companies like Adams are good quality, but a more full set of clubs.

It's enough to learn whether you are actually as hooked on the game as the rest of us crazy people and THEN you spend some bucks and find a full set.
