I gotta buy golf clubs...

With any clubs I recommend hitting them before you buy them. Go to a local golfsmith or similar store and see if they have the set you are buying and try them out. One set may feel great to someone, while the exact same set will be terrible for you.

Christos, unless one was giving me some sort of electrical shock and the other not, I'd not know a difference. I have no frame of reference.

Another option may be to see if you have a local club builder. My last two sets have been from one of these shops. I would recommend a good fitting over any brand name. Plus these guys are usually cheap. For my last set I got 5-GW and fitting for $275. I'm a 6'2 so my irons are +1 inch and 2degrees upright. It made a huge difference.
I would recommend hybrids for anything under a 5 iron. eBay is your friend when it comes to golf equipment too.
Good luck and hit em strait.

I wish they made ones with great big rubber heads so you just gotta make contact with the ball and it goes the right direction. What I oughta do is put a baseball bat in my bag. That'd bring my game along by leaps and bounds. All I'd really need is one bat, a putter and a cart.
