Look it, if you don't want to spend a lot of money on set of expensive clubs were you pay 20% just for the name on the side that matches your favorite golfer on TV using those clubs,(of course they are using those clubs because they are being paid to use them)and you want a good quality set where your not wasting your money later regretting the purchase, these are simply the clubs for you!

I have used the hell out of these clubs for the past three weeks. I have gone to the driving range 4 days a week plus time most every night in the back yard. If you are inquiring about these clubs then your obviously not a scratch golfer and like most, want something to improve your game and also have a quality set to depend on. Now that sounded like a lot to me when I researched these clubs because of the price. If it sounds too good to be true...

I can say without hesitation after receiving these clubs and just holding them in my hands, I had got a steal. I could not and still can not believe the quality of these clubs. The irons are awesome. A beautiful stainless steel jacket on the head that has excellent balance and weight, not to mention they are quite striking to look at.(though you will soon be roughing them up on the course hopefully!)They look a lot like Taylor Made Burner irons.

The two Hybrids are beautiful and well made. These clubs I am still getting used to. The driver is out of this world. I mean again, for the price, I just can't believe they offer these awesome irons, two hybrids and then you get to the two woods. The 460cc titanium driver rocks! End of story. It added 20 to 30 yards to the distance of my drive but more importantly gave me a bigger sweet spot and a lot of my drives now go straight where before they would hook and slice. You also get a 3 wood as well. Just as nice. Of course you get an equally awesome wedge that I love using along with a really nice well made putter. The head covers come with the bag

The bag is really nice. Again, I can not stress enough the quality of the combination of irons, woods, hybrids, putter and bag for the ridiculous low price! The bag is full of pockets, you will not need more room and has great looks. If I have any complaints at all they are minuscule. The only thing I could say, and again who cares cause you are essentially getting a garage sale price would be tiny flaws that you have to squint to see were the forging is done and maybe some microscopic swirl marks on the black finish of the woods and hybrids but again, you really have to stick it up to your eyeball to see it.

In summary, this set is a freaking steal! Great quality, has improved my game 500%. Beautiful to look at, great feel, great quality and overall the best deal I've been involved with in quite some time. If your name is not on the 500 golfers in the world, then I recommend this set highly!

Ok, so first of all, let me first tell you that I don't know much about golf now, and knew even less when I bought this set of clubs. What I did know is that I needed taller clubs since I am 6'5" tall and I knew that I didn't want to spend a lot of money since I was literally just buying these to try it out. Well here is what I can tell you after using these both at the driving range and on various courses in the Houston area for the past 2 months. First of all, the irons and the fairway woods are very strong and durable. The driver, well between my inexperience and the poor quality, that had to be replaced with an upgrade after about a month because the head was badly dented. The putter, not only do I not like the design, weight and shape of it, but it is also very poorly made and after using just two months most of the black paint has chipped away leaving a very ugly metal surface underneath which is starting to pit. The grips on all the clubs are holding up quite well though, however all of the white lettering on them was gone after an hour at the driving range. The bag itself is well designed and honestly quite nice considering the price of the set. Plenty of pockets for your gloves, tees, balls, divot tool, and also has a little sliding hoop that holds onto a towel very well. The bag I received looked nothing like the one pictured, but was still nice, strong, and I have not had any issues with it at all.

All in all I would have to say that these clubs are a good investment if you are just starting out, however if you plan on getting serious in the sport or have friends who are, you will probably be let down with the long term quality and durability of these clubs. The irons are great and perform well. But the rest, well... could use some work.

To sum it up, if you're looking for a set of beginner clubs especially for someone who is not sure they will like golf, this is a solid choice. But if you think you're going to quickly regret going so cheap on the clubs, I would look for something used or new of a better quality. My grandfather always said, "Buy once, and buy right". And that holds true with this purchase. No regrets though, live and learn.

I will have to agree with all the other positive reviews. I'm 6'6" and was looking to get into golf (after playing one round which definitely convinced me...I was worried that I'd hate the game after 5 holes and never play again, thus I waited to buy a set. LOL). Being tall, I realized that I needed longer clubs (especially after that round using a standard set). After tons of research, I found these which were extended one inch. Many of the sets I saw at Dicks, Target, or other stores were "standard" length and it would be approximately ten bucks per club to extend them - which ends up being one to one-fifty for a set just to get them extended (and regripped)!!! For these to already be extended, include a full set, and include a nice bag all for about a hundred and fifty (with free shipping!) is a bonafide steal. I received them about a week later and they look EXACTLY like the picture. I couldn't be happier with the purchase. Anyone new to golf and wants a good starter set will not be disappointed with these Prosimmons!

UPDATE (7/9/11): Played a round with these, and they worked great! I don't use the driver (other than at the driving range) as I won a nice one in a raffle, but the irons are solid and give a much better feel being extended than the first set I played on. Would still definitely recommend these to anyone looking to get in the game!

I didn't actually buy these clubs, but I borrowed them from a friend of mine who had purchased them for his 2nd home. I used them on a long 18 hole course and was for the most part very pleased. I read another review on these that stated that the drivers were plenty long and that the irons were to short for someone who is 6'6" - I'm 6'5" and the irons were great length in my opinion. Obviously, there is a lot of personal preference that goes into golf clubs, and I do have a tendency to stand over the ball, so I may not notice short irons as much as others.

I would have given this set of clubs 5 stars, but the drivers were just not even comparable to the feel and accuracy of the irons. As a taller guy, I've had tons of problems with long clubs (drivers and woods), and these were no exception to that. I think I'm stuck having to purchase seperate clubs to use as my driver/fairway woods. I have found 2 drivers that I absolutely love, however, they are definitely more pricey. On is the Nike SQ Machspeed Tour Driver - http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004FV6BIU/?tag=dogknesurinf-20 - You definitely get what you pay for with this club. It is simply amazing. The other drivers I've had great success with are the Taylor Made R series (specifically the R7) - http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000VEQN0G/?tag=dogknesurinf-20 - If you're a "power golfer" like myself, swing hard now - figure it out later, then I'd recommend this Prosimmon set of clubs with the stipulation that you'll likely need to replace the drivers/woods.

Awesome set of clubs and bag. Greath height for me and I am 6"4. What a way to save money and not have to get your clubs extended, these are my first set!

I'm 6'3" tall, and am finally taking private lessons after 11 years of "playing" about once or twice a year. My instructor said I could use an extra 1/2" of club for my height. After my first lesson using these clubs, I played 18 holes and shot an 87, which was only the second time in my life that I've broken 100, and my best round ever by 10 strokes! The clubs have a great feel, and I'm astounded at the quality offered for this price!! I would believe it if I saw just the BAG offered for this price!!! (By the way, through Amazon.com, I got FREE SHIPPING!)

Purchased these clubs based mainly on price but also on the positive reviews. Was a bit skeptical about the quality but since playing a few rounds these clubs, I am more than pleased with my purchase. These clubs are a steal for around $150-160, especially for taller person since I am 6"4' tall. The irons are great, the putter is good, but what I was most surprised about was the woods. I have used my brother in laws driver which tended to vibrate a lot on ball contact. But the included driver hardly vibrates at all. Plus it's added about another 30-50 yards to my drives. If you are worried about wasting your money on these clubs then don't.

Im new to golfing and have only went twice prior to buying these clubs.. Wanted to pick up a set for cheap so i can go along with my friends who play. Did some research and found these clubs. Im 6"6' so the added length is really nice. These clubs are solid and a great value for the money. You get all the clubs you will ever need. The bag is good and comes with plenty of room and pockets for balls and tees and everything you need. I took these clubs to the range last week and also played 18. Clubs worked out great. My buddies all wanted to try out the hybrids! I recomed these clubs to anyone who is new or just getting into golf. For the price and the free shipping you cant beat it.. not even used! Espicall for the taller golfer!

I'm a little taller than most at 6'8", so extended clubs are a must. These are pretty comfortable in length and swing nicely. The irons are accurate and feel good in the hand. The grips are round with no flat spot to force you to hold it where you don't want to. The bag is decent, with good storage and a good strap.

I just started golfing. I am 6'5'' tall I would use a friends clubs and the clubs didnt feel right. He told me to get +1 set of clubs. I went golfing tonight and what a difference. The clubs feel good, more natural of a stance. The driver was great, I was crushing the ball. Everything about the set is great. The bag is a good quality large bag. Highly recommend this set.
