To those that are considering the "cheap sets".. I highly suggest puting together a set from Craiglist or even the RS buy/sell. For about the same price as a new complete starter set, you can get a used set of higher end clubs that you wont have to upgrade much once you get more into the game. When i first started out, i wasted hundreds of dollars buying crap golfing gear b/c i thought i was just starting out.

Older Callaway/TM drivers can be had for about $40, older TM, Callaway, Cleveland iron sets for about $100-$150 and older Odyssey putters i've seen for about $20-30. Though its older gear, i would play with that stuff b/c of the better shafts, clubheads, grips, etc. over anything from Sportsmart or Sportschek any day
