Hi Simon, I snagged a second hand set of lightly used Ping G400 5-U, Driver 4 hybrid and Glide 3.0 54° eye sole sw from a guy that “wasn’t trusting” the equipment because it was all Regular flex shafts he bought it off the rack. I was able to buy everything for $500 USD - nippon R flex shafts in irons and ping stock graphite in the rest. I’m a high handicapper and this setup is not only easy to hit its light years beyond the secondhand junk I was buying on eBay.
All my clubs are second hand, with the exception of my wedges (Kirkland Signature, which I love). Actually, I do have one other bought new. I picked up a Wilson D5 fairway wood as an end-of-stock special with a view to giving it to my son. Then I hit it, and thought "nope, he's not having it, it's mine!" 😏⛳
Play to confidence. Use clubs that give you confidence when looking down on them no matter what people say. I'm using old dci oversize black triangle from 25 years ago because I feel like I can hit them and that feeling is worth more than anything
I love this video so much. I was a brand new golfer a little over a year ago and where I got it right was I bought an inexpensive set of blades that were beyond my skill level. I don’t have a distance ego so any driver pretty much suited me and my wedge and putting game have always been mysteriously strong. Now that I have practiced a ton, hitting something on the newer side seems a breeze and I’m really enjoying my time on the golf course. First round I shot was 132 and now shooting high 80s. I plan to keep at it and get that down while really having a lot of fun :)
My first clubs were from Sports Direct at £60 for a full set. As soon as I got serious I was told I needed a 1/2 inch extra shaft length. I bought a set of Taylormade TP Muscle Cavity irons. Learned to hit those but they were hard so bought a set of second hand Mizuno 919 hot metal pros in the same specs off ebay and completely changed my game. Still got a hand-me-down ping G25, set of second hand Vokey wedges off eBay and a white hot Rossie from eBay I bought when I was drunk. Entire bag is £600 and each club is better than I can become.
Good advice as always Simon👍. As a new golfer I bought a cheap package set and the desire to buy “better” to fix my problems is strong…but then I realize after hitting a good shot 1/5 that the equipment is better than I am lol
Keep working at it. That 1 in 5 will become 3 in 10, then 2 or 3 out of 5 before you know it. It's almost certainly not the clubs at the beginner golfer level.
Wanted to upgrade my sons irons from cleveland cg4 tour irons to cobra forged tec irons ..He stopped me said it would ruin his progress...was dumbstruck because I think I wanted soemthing new and shiny for me more than him...I think he was right...thanks Simon
Wow very truthful and honest !!!! one point is yes learn the basics of how you manage your game first then worry about club adjustments !!! Newly subscribed wish I found you 20 years ago lol
Love your videos mate. I just bought a PXG 0211 driver based on your video you posted recently. I haven't hit it before buying 🙃 Wish I had watched this video first 😅
A good rule of thumb is to play the lightest, most flexible shaft that creates your desired ball flight. Park your ego, just because Scottie Scheffler can swing hard enough to flex a Ventus Black X-stiff shaft, doesn't mean you can. I played a pickup round at a local club. One of the guys the starter grouped with me was 55 and had been talked into buying some titanium shafts in his woods. I watched him hit low, weak pushes off the tee all day. I was late 20s and tried smoked his 3 wood 75 yards past him. He was not exactly pleased when I told him what the problem was.
Ive just brought a package set from decathlon but with graphite shafts as its been months and the steel shaft version is still out of stock and i just wana start my golf journey.
I have my Titleist Dci 762 and got fitted for them when I was 17 handicap and still have them never felt the need to change them. Don't play as much as I used to these days due to work but I am a 9 handicap golfer now. My tip is always get fitted around 1 and half hours will save you loads of money. Plus it a free service
I just purchased 3 Callaway big Bertha gold....... With ladies graphite shafts.... Lets just say. There beasts smaller shaft on the lower lofted clubs seems to work for me
I took tip 3 to heart this year... last year I bought a 50 and 56 MP-T4 off Facebook for very good rates (the 56 had never been hit and was £30...). I'd got tired of my old wedges and just couldn't hit the set SW from the fairway... However, spin forward a year I now carry the MP-T4 56 for fairway use and the set SW to hit out of the bunkers, love it and can't get rid of it - it may feel like a shovel from the fairway but I can always put it close out of a bunker. Definteiyl no need to take useful clubs out of the bag, even if carrying a 56 and SW seems a bit overkill!
My tips for 25+ hcp: - buy second hand, get clubs that have a shaft, installed preferraby as well as a club head and a grip, installed also to make a club. - buy refurb balls. Get the ones that are white, clean and round. - Driver optional. - Play with said equipment for 2-3 seasons.
Great advice Simon I only buy pre-owned clubs. I bought a mixed set of Cobra irons F9 forged TEC an muscle backs for 300 U.S and I love them. That way when I sell them I'll make some money on the deal.
I have not long took the game back up, I went 2nd on a full set of Nike slingshot 4d irons including 2 hybrids a covert driver and method putter for a great price hoping they serve me well
Been using my dad cheap Prodrive club set for years and have been unable to break 105.. just got myself some secondhand ping s57's and instantly down and almost breaking 90. (Half the club head size and slightly longer) hit them straight every time! Now to fix the putting haha
Simon, you should do a video on refurbished golf balls vs. New balls, similar to your lake ball video. Reason why is I just bought a 24 pack of refurbished "ProV1s" for $24 in the states and upon further inspection I could see that under the repainted top layer the ball was actually a taylormade, and printed as a Titleist ProV1. Scammers!!
Nice nice tips. Apologies this might be long lol.... To #5 I am mid-high handicapper and have only ever bought 2 sets of irons new....1 was when I got back into the game and did find a great deal on a new set of rogue x irons online. This was at the start of Covid so prices were down but here in the states we could still golf. Now I played 10-15 rounds with them and didn't like the overall feel. Once shops opened fully I took them in and got on a sim and was told some tweaks that they could make to them without too much $$$$. Change lie angle and shorten them by 1/2in. I contemplating it for a while and continued to play them but I really just didn't like them. By then the markets started opening back up so I listed them for sale with thoughts of getting something else maybe to the specs I was recommended. As Covid opened prices went up and the market for lefties was and still is in full swing. Ended up selling them for a $150 profit and purchased the set I am still using Maltby STi2 irons which I love. Since that I always kept my eyes open for deals I can land and try out and if I don't get along with the purchase I try flipping for profit or to at least gain back what was spent. So far been pretty successful. Would you recommend anything like this to a newer golfer?? It does patience as you full well know.
I was handed used Irons, 30 years old from Kmart basically. Given a nice driver and putter. Driver had a light regular shaft and my swing speed made it hard to control the face. Upgraded to a used one and had a stiff shaft installed. Found a cheap putter that feels good and fits. Bought a used iron set and trying to get used to them. I don't blame my clubs when they are not the problem. Which now they are not. I have good clubs now, it's up to me. Taylormade SLDR driver with 65 gram stiff, 97 mph swing speed Callaway x2hot 4-pw steel stiff shaft Ping 410 3 wood, 65 gram stiff Warrior 5 wood Epic 7 wood Warrior 60 degree Integra 52 degree. I may drop my 4 iron and get a 56 degree. I am 49 and in shape but I don't really use my 4 iron. Golf is fun and gapping clubs changes. I bought the 3 and 7 woods used and waiting for them to arrive. I want to see if the 7 wood is better for me than the 4 iron and fits the gapping. Then I can put another wedge in the bag. The 52 is too much and the 60 is not enough when it comes to certain shots for me as a beginner. Good tips!
Wish i had this insight and more patience last summer. Bought rogue x irons off rack. Good clubs but light high spinning shafts aren't suited for my swing speed so bought again this summer. Also guilty of blindly ordering long clubs online based on what i believe i need. Been lucky on that end though as my choices of lofts and stock shafts have worked out.
Heya mate, just wanted to say loving the content. I found your channel just over a year ago when I was starting out in gilf and found your videos very helpful. I now have a full bag of secondhand clubs which I absolutely love, thank you for all of the shared wisdom and keep up the great work, all the best 👍
I just tested a few irons with my coach, im fairly green but i hit long. I noticed you said shafts werent that important and i dont fully agree. Of the maybe 5 shafts we tested with a bunch of irons there was one that i did significantly better with. So i think a shaft could greatly impact performance
Simon, weeks ago you said you were going to do a Hogan video. There are frankly offensively low priced Hogan iron sets out there, they are so unfashionable! You should spread the gospel.
Love the videos Simon, never really played much golf but myself and a few friends have all taken it up recently with hand me down clubs. Such a great way to have a fun day when everyone is free. Shot 62 on a par 34 today 😂
biggest thing I've learned is the new clubs and technology won't fix your issues.. I spent a lot of money on clubs when I first started and honestly wish I had started with an older "pro" style of irons and learned how to truly find the center and flush it.. I had chunky monkey clubs and got away with a lot of bad shots because.. I got to a point were I thought I had earned the right for more player irons and I couldn't hit them.. ended up selling them at a loss. fitting has helped a bunch for me too I'm tall and need some longer clubs with different lie angles. end of rant, but great video bro. I really love this channel it's amazing cheers from the US!
Simon, fell for the beginner trick and went for the muscle back type irons about a year ago. In my 20s, my swing speed has improved significantly aswell as distance but as you said control is a problem! Would you have any recommendations on iron sets I could bag for a few years?
Mizuno Forged, Callaway Apex DCB, Titleist T300 are the clubs that I was looking at in the same bracket of, workable forgiving Irons. I ended up going with the Mizuno and I'm loving them
How are things coming together with your second hand fitting? Sanford springs giving you the space and freedom to start it up and get the players down (saying down solely because I’m from the north/Glasgow)
So I’ve been playing for three years and I’m a former rugby player. I’ve been using regular flex but just checked my swing speed and it’s 110 mph (still don’t have a consistent straight drive)… what benefits would I get from changing the stiffness?
What irons would you suggest for a beginner looking to spend around the 100 to 150 mark. I can hit it far but more often than not its well off to the right. When I was playing last Sunday one of the guys said the clubs I have (old and given to me for free) were almost blades and if I got a set of cavity backs I'd be a lot better
I made the mistake of buying a set of irons off eBay without ever seeing them. They were almost exactly as advertised, but they listed the flex as a stiff flex. After receiving them, I found out they are x-stiff. I lost some distance and hit about 15 yards right of line consistently. I’ve considered reshafting them, but it would cost as much as I payed for them to do. Would you recommend going to a shop and trading for a different set of second hand clubs, or re shaft the ones I have now?
I'm pretty new to golf, playing only 3 years, and i'm a 4.7 handicap on a 144 slope course. The biggest issue i see in the game is ego. I disagree about control with cavity clubs, i play with G410's have done since being a 21 handicap 2 years ago and they play consistent meaning more enjoyment and less time at the range. The problem is people get fitted over one day and are hitting shots with no repercussion, get 99% of golfers on a course in a comp and see if they nut the 7 iron 190. Ignore the number on the bottom and make sure lofts are gapped properly. Pick a shaft to grow into, not the club.
Maybe the wrong wording but for once I didn't watch this video , just listened while eating my burritos . Very interesting listen, class mate ... ps I'm that 55year old bloke that's still trying to smash it haha
What irons would you recommend me at a handicap for 14.1 I currently have taylormade burners in the bag but the 5 iron has no cavity back in it was broken when I received the clubs
Great advice as always, I buy second hand clubs, it’s cheaper and easier! People say get fitted, but where? AG isn’t proper fitting!! Small pro shops try and sell you clubs from their own limited range usually Ping ,Titleist or Taylormade.
But what if it looks pretty....... LoL If been using the same irons now since they came out. Wilson D100. At the moment wouldn't change them for anything. I do have a set of Ping i3+ 4 to SW in Great condition and new grips I don't use if anyone's interested. Great vid as always....👍
I only got to the 1st tip. You mentioned that in an earlier video. It was the worst tip ever, then, and it is the worst tip now. Goodness help your students. Using your logic I should buy my 12 month old child Adult size eight shoes to learn to walk. He'll struggle to learn to walk, but he will grow into them. #Madness
Using your logic Bri… you wouldn’t buy your 12 month year old a pair of shoes that fits him perfectly that in two weeks won’t fit…. But instead something he can comfortably grow into over the next 3 months (or a golfer 2 years) #logic
Thanks for watching guys! Just saying fourth day in a row 😎

Letsgooo!!
Heads up mate, your thumbnail says “begginers” sort that spelling out ! 😝
It's your job , just sayin
All my clubs are second hand, with the exception of my wedges (Kirkland Signature, which I love).
Actually, I do have one other bought new. I picked up a Wilson D5 fairway wood as an end-of-stock special with a view to giving it to my son. Then I hit it, and thought "nope, he's not having it, it's mine!" 😏⛳

Thanks Simon, was tempted by the pxg £205 driver but nothing wrong with my BenRoss tbh. Will definitely hold back
Love the honesty !! Great advice

On the shaft topic, I hit my bladed 7 iron 165 and still use a regular shaft, I prefer that softer feel when I swing with my irons personally
Good advice as always Simon👍. As a new golfer I bought a cheap package set and the desire to buy “better” to fix my problems is strong…but then I realize after hitting a good shot 1/5 that the equipment is better than I am lol
Keep working at it. That 1 in 5 will become 3 in 10, then 2 or 3 out of 5 before you know it. It's almost certainly not the clubs at the beginner golfer level.
been playing golf for little over 2months now and ur videos are a great help man
Wanted to upgrade my sons irons from cleveland cg4 tour irons to cobra forged tec irons ..He stopped me said it would ruin his progress...was dumbstruck because I think I wanted soemthing new and shiny for me more than him...I think he was right...thanks Simon
Following step 5 is hard as a lefty, but great advice all around!
Wow very truthful and honest !!!! one point is yes learn the basics of how you manage your game first then worry about club adjustments !!! Newly subscribed wish I found you 20 years ago lol
Bloody good points. Lessons and techniques will bet new clubs all day long. Imagine how many lessons u get for £400
Love your videos mate. I just bought a PXG 0211 driver based on your video you posted recently. I haven't hit it before buying 🙃 Wish I had watched this video first 😅
Agreed! I will never change my box set putter. I feel so comfy and confident with it!
A good rule of thumb is to play the lightest, most flexible shaft that creates your desired ball flight.

So I’ve been playing for three years and I’m a former rugby player. I’ve been using regular flex but just checked my swing speed and it’s 110 mph (still don’t have a consistent straight drive)… what benefits would I get from changing the stiffness?
Simon the tip , Don’t buy without hitting it. Does that apply to the PXG driver. Or is the deal to good to miss?
i buy all my clubs used
I learned early on that I care more about my wedges then I do my 3 wood and hybrid. I carry certain wedges for different reasons.
What irons would you suggest for a beginner looking to spend around the 100 to 150 mark. I can hit it far but more often than not its well off to the right.

Great tips mate, and great to see so many vids 👍
Thank you mate! Appreciate that boss 😎
Great summing up Simon, thank you
Maybe the wrong wording but for once I didn't watch this video , just listened while eating my burritos .
Very interesting listen, class mate ... ps I'm that 55year old bloke that's still trying to smash it haha
Loving the videos and this one is great timing as started playing golf last month. Super useful 👍
Thanks for watching jacob and glad I can help mate!
Great. Video , some really good advice
What do you think about Arccos?
Worth it to see the bad side of your game? Or do I need to be a low hdc player for that?
What irons would you recommend me at a handicap for 14.1 I currently have taylormade burners in the bag but the 5 iron has no cavity back in it was broken when I received the clubs
I made the first mistake, my first set of cobra f9 7 iron were going 185 carry, just not useable
Great advice as always,
I buy second hand clubs, it’s cheaper and easier!
People say get fitted, but where? AG isn’t proper fitting!!
Small pro shops try and sell you clubs from their own limited range usually Ping ,Titleist or Taylormade.
Dude .customer of myn gave me a titleist 915 d3 for £20 . Beat that 😂👊🏴
Hi Simon, I have this gap from 200+
But what if it looks pretty....... LoL
If been using the same irons now since they came out. Wilson D100. At the moment wouldn't change them for anything. I do have a set of Ping i3+ 4 to SW in Great condition and new grips I don't use if anyone's interested.
Great vid as always....👍
Bringing back some Vintage B Roll
What are your hats Simon?
When are you going to start your fitting business?
number 1 BEGINNER GOLFERS mistakes is buying name brand golf gears 😄 I used walmart golf gears and I'm a 7 handicap
So no to the pxg fairways on offer at the mo , off the shelf ?
Not sure mate haven’t checked recently pal, imagine the would go quick though.
Orca golf will disagree with this. I play of 14 and I’ve played stiff and reg and not much difference for me.
Great advice
Human nature is what it is
All true just a shame the big boys don’t want u to stick.
👍👍
The audio quality is so bad
