Seeking advice on where is the best place in The Villages or surrounding area to purchase a set of golf clubs and what type would you suggest purchasing?

Thanks for your serious input.
I'd recommend that you purchase a used set of clubs as a starter 9ASSUMING THAT YOU ARE BRAND NEW TO THE GAME). Should you decide that golf is not your "thing", you would not have laid out a larger investment. You can always upgrade to a new set.

You also might want to look into going to a "demo day" (if you are thinking of purchasing new clubs) where you can usually try out different brands of golf clubs for free. I tried different iron sets at a demo day and Cleveland seemed to feel/work best for me, whereas another name brand felt like I was swinging a cement block on the end of a stick. Each manufacturer may have different iron sets available and they usually identify which type of player would benefit from a particular set (low to high handicappers).

Good luck and welcome to the game!
