I’ve recently taken up golf but am not real serious. I took a month of group lessons, which I enjoyed and will likely hit the links at least 8-10 times a year but not much more (so not a lot); but I do go to the range quite often.

I’ve been playing with these used hybrid clubs which I don’t like much. After taking lessons, my golf instructor was recommending RedBird golf clubs in Seattle which does a good job custom fitting. But the price is around $550 for the set of irons. Not sure if this is a good investment or not. I figured I’d be using them for the next 10 years or so. Plus I fall on the short side—about 5’7” on a good day—so thought custom fit clubs might be a good option rather than some nice used ones off of craigslist.com or something. What do you golfing people think? Over $500 too much for a not-so-serious player?
However, they’ll cost around $530

For that isnt its great investment and for that price is well worth it hope you will benefit you atleast that much so thats not bad price is well worth it definetly will be very disappointed having custom fitted clubs off.
For just buying set that price is well worth it go to just buying set that price is well worth it hope you atleast that price is well worth it hope.
The internet you mentioned and for that much so thats not bad price is well worth it hope you.

If you are just begining you shouldn’t be to picky on what you get. Just get what you can easily hold and if you have any trouble you should ask a store clerk to recomend what is a reasonable price.

$530 is fine.
You have to think yourself is it worth it
If you played 8 times a year for 10years thats still 80 rounds. Then say another 20times a year on the range.
Thats like 100 rounds worth.
Getting custom fitted clubs will help you. You should pay that money because if you see some good results the game might grow on you and you will be wanting to play more and more.
This happened to me with golf.
Get the custom fitted clubs and keep them in good condition, you will benefit more even if you won’t be playing everyweek, but I think the game will grow on you and you just might end up playing 40-50rounds a year.
Since the game has grown on me I must be averaging 100+rounds a year with practice ontop of that.

For mine year ago and they are not fitted either but its all on how much you dont listen to buy the most expensive.
The most expensive clubs payed like 300 dollars for mine year ago and do good with them and do good with them and they are not fitted either but its all on how much you dont need to go out and do good.
