COREYAN143 Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 Hi, I have been visiting this web site often and I decide to write post. Because I could not decide what should I do. I just started golf about a month ago. I had tried before, but this time I am serious. I went to range about 7-8 times and I hit the ball and It goes about 80-100 yard almost straight with 7 iron. I am about 180cm and 100Kg(I gain a lot of weight recently), 35 years old asian guy. Even I am tall and heavy, my strenth is too weak. No power...My friend suggest to use graphite iron.. And I live in Los Angeles now. I was going to buy USA version of Mizno JPX 800 HD($630 here) but since I am going to have business golf later, I want to get bit more nice Japanese irons for the future. However, the basic Honma and other brand is so expensive(around $1800 to $2000) even it is base model... And I want to buy some nice golf stand bag also. Since here in USA does not have caddy most people prefer stand bag. Can someone recommend some iron sets and stand golf bag? My budget is around us $1000. If there is good deal I will stretch to $1500... I saw couple website selling japanese iron sets with resonable price. Please recommend iron set deal and bag. My E-mail address is [email protected]. Thank you... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EdGolf Posted October 24, 2012 Report Share Posted October 24, 2012 On Off is another easy iron set for beginners.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lousifers Posted October 24, 2012 Report Share Posted October 24, 2012 XXIO7. I've either owned or hit the most forgiveness model of many brands: Callaway Razr, OnOff RED, TM, Epon AF702, PRGR, that Mizuno JPX800, Miura, etc. It's obvious that XXIO7 is the most forgiving (easiest) to hit. With its stock shafts, you won't bother thinking about getting modifying your set. The stock shafts already give you the distance you want. Lastly, I like the sound at impact. Good feeling for its category. Good luck Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duffer19 Posted October 24, 2012 Report Share Posted October 24, 2012 Agree with Supo and Mark than XXIO is simply point and shot plus distance due to strong loft. While OnOff Red is also easy but just not XXIO easy. It is great for beginners due to large head and offset. Unfortunately new XXIO is not cheap so you might want to look for a used set.
