Hi Ricky

Its not always the case that the most expensive club is the best for you, especially when you are learning.

You really need to look at a beginners set to start with. There is absolutely no point in spending £300 on the latest driver, when you wont be able to make the most of it.

If it was me learning I would look at something like a wilson set of irons, and pick up a 3 wood and a putter. Get some lessons and learn the basics of the game, then after a couple of years or so when you feel like you have progressed enough then go and look at the more expensive clubs aimed at intermediates.

There is always the risk that a club will get a good review because they have already spend ££££ in advertising in the same mag. Check out some online sites that review the clubs.

You wouldnt go and buy a ferrari when you had just past your driving test as you wouldnt be able to control the car or get the most out of it. You would learn on something more forgiving and less difficult to control. Same applies with golf clubs.
