Thoughts on starter set?

It's a 12-piece set. You need 2 more clubs, looks like wedges. It's a good start for a beginner. How old? Any idea on yardages? If you're learning from a relatively young age, I'd rather irons over hybrids. Learning to hit a long iron, while difficult at first, will help in the long run.

Again, get more wedges. Short game is too important not to have them. Gap wedge at least. You may not want/need a Lob just yet so you could hold onto the 4 hybrid.

Don’t listen to ELL, hybrids are the shite.

I have a 3 hybrid instead of a 5 wood.

I just mean that stopping at 6 iron isn't ideal even for a beginner. Learning and improving with the 4 and 5 would be better imo. Unless he's older and not long. No reason to waste time struggling then.

i'm 31.

basically looking for a good set to get me started

mainly getting feels for club, working on contact, driving ranges - maybe even hitting into a net at the house
