Dont spend too much on your first clubs. A $300 set will do pretty much the same thing as a $1000 set for a high-medium handicapper.

My best advise would be to get a cheap, over sized heads (they have a bigger "sweet spot" set of clubs made by a decent name you have heard of. Expensive clubs are designed to give greater touch and control, but can hinder the game of someone just starting, you really need something cheap, solid, with the biggest sweet spot you can get.

You can worry about hitting the fades and deep spins and so on later on... if you are anything like me anyway, hitting the ball long and in a straight line is enough of a challenge when you start playing!

If you want to splash out, do it in a putter that feels really nice, or maybe a nice sand wedge. And dont spend too much on a driver either... or at least I didt. For the first couple of years I played I never even used to hit a wood... I can hit a 3 iron 200 yards and thats enough for me!
