I should have elaborated futher..

Choosing the right grip size - A grip that is too small will cause the club face to close prematurely and lead to a hook. A grip that is too large can cause the club face to open at impact, resulting in a slice. Used sets are often regripped with the previous owners specs. Regripping a whole set can run anywhere from $40+

Choosing the right length isn't that big of an issue b/c most are standard. Although, "standard" men's length varies from manufacturer. Also some of the clubs selling on craiglist are often lengthened.

Stay away from something too light in flex b/c you will regret it later on. Can't really go wrong with regular flex for someone starting out.
