About this deal
We’re happy to see this as more loft = more backspin (higher launch) and less sidespin (tighter dispersion). We were also hugely impressed with the putter - generous head size and soft grip gave a fantastic sense of feel. Designed for right-handed players and made from graphite (except for the steel putter) the clubs will give you three irons, one driver, one fairway wood, one hybrid, and a putter.
If you’re wondering, the extra “pieces” are not clubs, they’re the stand bag (in all cases), and head covers (in varying numbers). Which should give you the confidence that you’ll be able to get it up in the air from the short stuff. The irons are designed with a large cavity and a low centre of gravity that get the ball up into the air with ease. If you would like more of a complete set and want to max out your driving distance, then consider checking out the Strata Plus golf set below. The hybrids were decent to hit off the tee, but we struggled out of the fairway or rough due to the lack of flex.To be honest, we’d like to have seen this at maybe 16 degrees, but the large head and forgiveness should balance out the lower loft a bit. You’ll also get a lightweight and spacious stand bag, which we rated very highly, and two head covers. The driver, 3-wood and irons are ideal for the golfer in mind and should last for a number of years comfortably. The wedges are not overly workable, so you won’t feel as though you can get spin and a lot of control, but you will get forgiveness. These clubs will open up beginner and average players' games and start to shape them into higher-level handicap golfers.

I can’t speak to how good they are, because I really don’t know enough and don’t have much to compare them to. Beginner golfers often want more clubs, but from my experience, you’ll not see too much difference in distance between your irons and hybrids until you reach a 24-20 handicap stage and can strike 8/10 shots well. A golf package set is an affordable and effective way those new to the game to quickly get out on course with all the gear.
This is a great set for beginners or, as in my case, getting back into the game after a long time away (not that I was ever very good ;-). First up, you’re getting a 460cc head, which is the large driver head size you’ll see in most modern clubs. This is obviously another cost saving measure and, while it doesn't hinder the experience as much as the putter, it's not ideal. They’re great alternatives to long irons, so you can play with more confidence on a variety of shots.Also of concern was the poor quality finish on the putter head which, with no headcover included in the set, could result in the putter getting damaged. Again with this set the bag was a highlight - lightweight and good quality, with plenty of pockets and enough club storage. The putter is less than desirable because there's no milling or insert on the face so, no matter what ball you use, putts have a tendency to slide off the face left or right. But we can balance that out really with the fact that this is a ridiculously affordable set of golf clubs. As a golf pro, who has taught many beginner golfers, I will happily tell you that you don’t need a full set of golf clubs, to begin with.
