Unless you’re worried about others opinions, the bag and extra clubs alone probably worth it. You’re not gonna find a new bag for much cheaper than 100-120$. If you’re lucky you might find a used one/used set that comes with one, but that alone eats into a chunk of your funds. You’re basically left with 100$ to fill the rest of your kit out vs what you’d get with the set.\r\n\r\nThis gets you out there and let’s you keep an eye on the used market to slowly replace clubs in the bag. Then you sell those off on Facebook for like 75$-125$ and you’ve given yourself the luxury of having a set to play immediately and allowed yourself time to make good used purchases. Just my opinion\r\n\r\nOh: or get something like this strata set which is Callaway’s budget set if not sold on top flite Callaway Golf Men's Strata Complete Set https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07H2HQJR5/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glc_fabc_XQq8FbT4HNV74?_encoding=UTF8\u0026amp;psc=1","subreddit_name":"golf","author":"omariousmaximus"},{"body":"Welcome to golfing 🏌️‍♂️! As someone who started golfing during the pandemic I also had to get myself a setup for somewhere in that price range and I’m more than happy to share my experience. \r\n\r\nThe fastest most convenient set that’s gonna check all your boxes and have you golfing by Friday is the Strata by Callaway set found on Amazon. \r\nhttps://www.amazon.com/Callaway-Strata-Complete-Piece-Package/dp/B07H2HQJR5/ref=mp_s_a_1_1_sspa?crid=763LE7HUKUVV\u0026amp;keywords=strata+golf+club+set\u0026amp;qid=1654523884\u0026amp;sprefix=strata%2Caps%2C202\u0026amp;sr=8-1-spons\u0026amp;psc=1\u0026amp;spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUEzVlMwRE1WRVUyNlNOJmVuY3J5cHRlZElkPUEwOTMxNzYzMjE3SDNCSTNVMFQyJmVuY3J5cHRlZEFkSWQ9QTA2NDExMjUzSzhNWkRLQVlGREZZJndpZGdldE5hbWU9c3BfcGhvbmVfc2VhcmNoX2F0ZiZhY3Rpb249Y2xpY2tSZWRpcmVjdCZkb05vdExvZ0NsaWNrPXRydWU=\r\nIt has everything your looking for including the bag and if you search your local OfferUp you can find it for like half the price . \r\n\r\n2nd set I would recommend is the Callaway Edge set found at Costco only. It’s out of stock right now on there website but depending on where you live your local store might have it stock. The quality on this is great but it is $500 and does not include a bag . \r\n\r\nLast recommendation is to build your own set or buy one on offer up. Look for irons are cavity backed (game improvement )that are no older than 8 years old and Drivers and woods no older than 5 . From what I’ve been told the iron tech doesn’t progress as fast as the Driver / woods tech does.","subreddit_name":"golfclassifieds","author":"bgpnla"},{"body":"Way too high! \r\n\r\nHonestly, any new introductory full set is going to be better due to tech advances and probably cheaper.\r\n\r\n[For instance](https://www.amazon.com/Callaway-Strata-Complete-Piece-Package/dp/B07H2HQJR5/ref=sr_1_3?crid=ZWK3QF4SGOPF\u0026amp;keywords=golf+clubs\u0026amp;qid=1648053040\u0026amp;sprefix=golf+clubs%2Caps%2C132\u0026amp;sr=8-3)","subreddit_name":"golf","author":"HayseedJunky"},{"body":"https://www.amazon.com/Callaway-Strata-Complete-Piece-Package/dp/B07H2HQJR5/ref=mp_s_a_1_4?adgrpid=58612371320\u0026amp;dchild=1\u0026amp;gclid=Cj0KCQjwppSEBhCGARIsANIs4p77VAg8O9XWVnuf_cqq9rlt8uX-3snrPgZwctqkBy99iXjTtwcU2D4aAkpAEALw_wcB\u0026amp;hvadid=274712723489\u0026amp;hvdev=m\u0026amp;hvlocphy=9019732\u0026amp;hvnetw=g\u0026amp;hvqmt=e\u0026amp;hvrand=16463698092539315942\u0026amp;hvtargid=kwd-296392465134\u0026amp;hydadcr=23476_9915765\u0026amp;keywords=tour+edge+golf+clubs\u0026amp;qid=1619400161\u0026amp;s=sporting-goods\u0026amp;sr=1-4","subreddit_name":"golf","author":"HundredTen"},{"body":"[This](https://www.amazon.com/Callaway-Strata-Complete-Piece-Package/dp/B07H2HQJR5/ref=asc_df_B07H2HQJR5/?tag=hyprod-20\u0026amp;linkCode=df0\u0026amp;hvadid=312123655163\u0026amp;hvpos=\u0026amp;hvnetw=g\u0026amp;hvrand=17036218173093995579\u0026amp;hvpone=\u0026amp;hvptwo=\u0026amp;hvqmt=\u0026amp;hvdev=m\u0026amp;hvdvcmdl=\u0026amp;hvlocint=\u0026amp;hvlocphy=1027744\u0026amp;hvtargid=pla-554934891561\u0026amp;psc=1\u0026amp;tag=\u0026amp;ref=\u0026amp;adgrpid=67808974971\u0026amp;hvpone=\u0026amp;hvptwo=\u0026amp;hvadid=312123655163\u0026amp;hvpos=\u0026amp;hvnetw=g\u0026amp;hvrand=17036218173093995579\u0026amp;hvqmt=\u0026amp;hvdev=m\u0026amp;hvdvcmdl=\u0026amp;hvlocint=\u0026amp;hvlocphy=1027744\u0026amp;hvtargid=pla-554934891561)","subreddit_name":"golf","author":"IndicaPDX"},{"body":"I think Charlie Yates loans out clubs.

Get the driver, fairway wood, hybrid, irons, etc. for $250. Hybrids are replacements for long irons that are more forgiving. Biggest differences would be the driver tech now with a 460cc head (massive), offsets and adjustable weights so it’s just much easier to hit.\r\n\r\nEDIT: Link Callaway Men's Strata Complete Golf Set (12 Piece) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07H2HQJR5/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_DsDUEbKZPCWGW","subreddit_name":"golf","author":"rmcalhou2"},{"body":"Sounds good, I will go ahead and order those.
