Looking for new clubs?

I've got a full set of Hippo clubs and I love them. They are actually much bigger in Europe and on the European tour than they are over here right now. They've got a great sweet spot and I usually can mishit mine and still come up with a playable shot. They are definitely not knock-offs, and they play very well. That's a steal for a set of clubs I think you'd be happy with.

I don't know anything about those clubs (the blue shafts are kind of Thumpish if you know what I mean :p), but are they going to be fitted properly for you? You might want to think about getting them someplace where you can get clubs that are tuned for your height and the way you swing (shitty doesn't count :p). I thought mine were until I golfed with DA in the sample golf outing this year. He told me that I need at least another 1/2 inch on my irons. I know this site is a little more expensive, but they make good clubs to order. I've been happy with everything that I've bought from them from drivers to my putter. http://pinemeadowgolf.com

You can also check their preowned selection to see if someone returned what you want in your size. I bought my dad's driver from there and it only had 1 mark on the top from a mis-hit. http://pinemeadowgolf.com/cgibin/ecart/ecart.pl?command=lltocoflinks

You can always buy a bag at Wal-Mart for $40 if you need one.

Buying new clubs isn't going improve your game enough to justify the price of the clubs (BTW whcih looks like a good price) I would invest that money into lessons that would show much more improvement.

I wasn't looking at them for that reason... I just think my clubs suck. I'm waiting on another one to break.

I think it was a defect in the 5 wood that broke though.

How am I supposed to know what type of swing I have Hawg? I do know that I swing a mighty fine rep stick if you know what I mean :biggrin:
Last time I bought a set they brought out the giant Ping (I already knew I wanted Pings) cart with about 30 different 6 irons in it. They had me take a couple swings with my old club, then pulled out 3 different 6's and had me swing them all on some kind of board that showed what kind of divot I was taking or some such thing. They looked at the tape on the club (oh yeah, they taped them before I started swinging them) and told me "you need these."
I gave them money, they gave me a set of clubs.
At any rate, you should be able to find a golf store or pro-shop where they can do something similar, and tell you what type of club best suits your swing.
