On One Hand: Wilson Has a Wide RangeWilson manufactures several sets of irons ranging from cheaper sets for mostly beginners, to very expensive sets for a low handicap player or a professional. Wilson’s current top of the line irons, the DI9s, have received good reviews from respected publication Golf Digest.On the Other: Dunlop Not Known for ClubsDunlop is a well-respected sporting goods company around the world. In golf, they are known more for their production of high-end balls than they are for high-end golf irons. Dunlop makes decent irons for a beginner, but is not known for being high quality enough for an elite golfer.Bottom LineWilson produces some of the best and most durable irons in golf.
Hi all, So I’ve just recently got into golf, I got some cheap clubs off eBay as I wasn’t sure I would get into it, and because I’m not highly paid. Found a full set of Dunlop 65’s local on eBay and won them for £40. They looked in mint condition used once maybe twice max! I went with a friend to the range a few times late last year and played my first ever round in Jan. I’m now hooked! I’ve taken lessons and corrected most of my swing faults (which were plentiful!) As I got the impression my money would be best spent learning to play rather than buying expensive clubs. Now I knew my clubs were never going to be anything special but I thought they would be fine while learning to play and do me for at least 12 months however reading so much negativity towards Dunlop clubs I’m not so sure now? I’m striking the ball well with them, they seem to be quite forgiving but I have no comparisons as I’ve never used anything else. They are steel-shafted and no heads have flown off yet (fingers crossed) Will carrying on using these clubs be detrimental to my progression? I obviously would love a decent branded set and often browse golf bidder for second-hand stuff but funds are tight and I’m not sure it’s necessary for me to have better clubs yet? So are they really that bad? should I be looking to change them asap? I play once or twice a week just for fun. Here is the forum where you can read good articles on the golf team windtreegolf.com.
