In this video we look at golf starter sets, box sets, or beginner sets and discuss if beginner golfers should buy them. Topics will include what is included in these sets, why are they less expensive, are they a good value, and are they good options for recreational golfers.

I play 1 or 2 rounds of golf a year. I bought a box set from Dick's and love it.
get a beginners set and you too can lose your golf balls all day long, they will promise you control and all kinds of stuff, but they will all suck, and you will be frustrated you will not enjoy the game lol
I'm getting back into golf after a 10 year break. Went with a full set of Callaways that ran me $1500
I’m debating between the TaylorMade RBZ set and the Callaway XR set…any recommendations? Greatly appreciated!
4 mins in you are boring
When you’re a beginner, you could go one of three ways: your new hobby could fizzle out, you might be an occasional player and you might be a fanatic. In the small chance you become a fanatic, you can always upgrade.
My 1st set of clubs was made up of 3 different branded wedges, a set of ram irons, a 5 wood, 3 wood, and a 7 hybrid. I had to go buy a putter and I played without a driver for a year.
Bottom line question is whether these PLAY significantly different than, say, a $1,000 set? Nothing said here suggested that how they play is any different – just finish, some features, and maybe longevity. Is this correct?
I got the Callaway Edge set and love ‘em!
Isn’t Strata owned by Callaway?
Very useful and comprehensive review!
Thank you so much for your video. I was so confused and stressed out to look for starter set. I did research and read Strata is one of the best starter set. So, I bought a complete set! It makes sense not spending tons of money for a fancy expensive golf clubs while I am learning to play! Thank you again for your video!
4:45 finally makes a point.
My starter set was a Arnold Palmer set. I miss those clubs because the face of the irons felt like the size of a hand compared to my new set. So much more forgiving!!!!
i enjoy listening to this guy.
Callaway to embarrassed to put their name on box clubs etc ?
My kid just started playing and gotta set like these on sale for $300. I had only played 1 year my senior year of high school and he wanted me to play with him, so I went to Goodwill and picked a used golf bag in town. Out and playing again for $50, with two drivers, P and S wedges, a full set of irons (a little mismatched), and a putter. Picked some cheap balls and tees, but pretty much live off the balls I find looking for mine because see above. Is a good time, fun, and not that expensive. Still looking for a 1 iron though…used to hit my grandfather’s a mile where I wanted. Actual drivers, still cannot correct the distance…
i just started to learn how to swing yesterday from the driving range. the next day i bought a club from the thrift store. do you recommend the thrift store for the beginners?, also what kind of club should i get if im just going to the driving range, and do you thik i should get a set or just a one or two club if im just going to the range?. sorry for many qustions im just really intrested and i wanna get in to playing golf :).
