Best set-up for beginner golfer (2 choices)?

Danny asked:


I am buying some clubs soon (off of craigslist/ebay to save money) and I have narrowed it down to two options. I am left handed if that matters, but I am trying to debate which is the best set-up to have. Both are selling for about the same price- but the clubs they come with are different. I used to play baseball so I know I will need to work on straightening my drives.

Set-up one:
Callaway Big Bertha War Bird Driver
Callaway Big Bertha War Bird Fairway Wood
Yonex A.D.X. 5 and 7 Woods
Lynx Irons 5-9
Lynx Pitching and Sand Wedges
Ping Zing 2 LS Lob Wedge
Ping Karstens Series Anser 2 Putter
Golf Bag

- My thoughts, sounds good has all I might need (might want a 3 or 5 iron?) Heard good things about big berthas and Ping.
(total set 13 clubs)

Second set-up
Nike NDS irons, 3,4,5,6,7,8,9,PW,SW with steel shafts. Nike CPR 18 degree hybrid. Nike 26 degree CPR hybrid. Nike Sasquatch 3+ 13 degree fairway wood.

- I would still need to buy a golf bag, I’ve heard great things about the hybrids and I could use the sasquatch in place of other woods? I don’t know if I need a driver since I am new but that might be something to keep in mind for the future.
Total set 12 clubs
Shape = Looks like they are in great shape

Since the prices are roughly the same (other than the golf bag) I am just curious as to which would be better in my situation, new, left handed, used to swinging a bat. I will buy whichever set is the best.

Thank you!!!
Thanks for the first reply! I just went to a pro shop and they said I didn’t really need to be fitted, I am normal body size (5′9 – 10) he said just standard clubs would work fine. But idk thanks for the suggestion. Still interested in peoples thoughts!

Terry asked:


I just got the Callaway GES club set that I bought on Ebay. It has three woods, three irons which are I think are hybrids but these are my first golf clubs so I’m a bit confused and a putter. There is no wedge, or at least nothing that says it is a wedge. The clubs are all labeled as driver, long fairway wood, mid fairway wood, long iron, mid iron, short iron and obviously putter. So I am curious if anyone knows which of these clubs I would use in sand? Right now I am just practicing driving but eventually I want to play on a course so will need to know which to use. Thanks to anyone who can help me out.
