  • Good golf set?

    What is a better set of golf clubs,

    1) Adams Uc-10 (priced around 150-170 dollars)
    2) Slingshot clones/v-91/t/v2 (priced from 130-160)
    3)Cleveland Ta-5 (From 210-240)
    4)Nike Cpr (from 200-240)

    After I sell the titelist clubs i purchased i am looking to buy new clubs in a month or so. Id appreciate your opinions.

    Thanks,

    Clevelands are great, but the CPR hybrids are great for a beginner.

    I'm not a fan of Adams clubs, and stay away from clones like the plague!

      Ive heard good things about the adams and cleveland, i havent heard much about the nike ones, and i have also seen pretty good reviews on the slingshot clones. Its really hard deciding.

        I am with Ben - stay away from clones. If you are looking for a cheaper alternative to OEM, checkinto component clubs. Snake Eyes and Dynacraft are the leaders in this area for North America. Seeing you are a fellow Canuck, Dynacraft has a Canadian site www.golfquip.com that allows you to order Dynacraft components with Canadian prices and no duty coming over the border.

          Well the Cleves are the best of that lot of bats. Golfsmiths stuff is top quality though their Viper and Python Ranges are great looking clubs and about $120 for a set of iron heads. You can get a decent set of shafts for $50 and grips for $30 so theres a set of good clubs for $200 and just the assembly to pay for (not a lot of money I wouldnt think)

          Check ebay for ready assembled Snake Eyes gear as its usually quite reasonably priced on there.

          Good hunting,

          D.

              Well, are you looking new or used? That plays a big part in the acceptable price.

              It's not so much about price, as it is about quality.

              Personally, I'd go component first, then OEM.

              I still wouldn't go with clones (knowingly). (I know, I know, I've got 2 in my bag, but they're on the chopping block! Yes, my iron heads are clones, too, but they're more to see if I like a combo set. Once they do their duty, it's time for CER 701+3C's!)

                A good set of component clubs are just as good of quality, if not better, than an OEM set with similar specs. The difference in price is first and foremost advertising recovery. OEM companies pay a fortune for advertising, sponsoring players and numerous other costs. Second, you are getting an assembled set from the OEM manufacturers, which may or may not suit your specific needs.

                    Snake Eyes without a question. I believe they are a Golfsmith company.

                        For irons
                        Dynacraft or Snake Eyes
                        The Dynacraft distributor in Canada is www.golfquip.com and
                        the Snake Eyes manufacturer is GolfSmith - www.golfsmith.com

                        As for woods, I would suggest (in this order):

                        Ashton Golf - www.ashtongolf.com - a Canadian company as well!
                        SMT - www.smtgolf.com
                        Alpha - www.alphaclubs.com
                        Snake Eyes (as above)
                        Bang - www.banggolf.com

                        Make sure you find a Canadian distributor (if possible) or you will end up paying extra shipping, get ripped off on exchange and pay duty.
