| I bought my knock-offs at Pin-Hi. The owner, Ken Pollen (sp?) used
to work at DEC SHR. I know several people who have purchased from
Ken, and all have been very happy -- myself included. He turns
the clubs around pretty quickly (a day, or two). He will fit you
for proper length, lie, grips, etc.
He stands behind his work as far as I've heard. Good prices too.
I figured being a beginner and all that a good set of knock-offs
would last me until I found out whether, or not, I could play the
game. After a year, I'm still happy with them...can't play that
great, but I like the clubs a lot. Gonna go one more year before
I invest in a "name" brand. Have to get a bit more consistent as
I am currently going around anywhere between 82 (easy courses like
St. Marks) and 104 (harder courses like Juniper Hill and Wachusett).

| As mentioned elsewhere,
If you like the clubs... why consider giving them up???
Being properly fit is very important especially if you're physically
of a different size then the "average". ie. height, arm length, size
of hands etc.
How you address and swing is important as well... myself for example...
I am 5'11" and 180 and play to an 8 handicap. I use irons that are
2 degress flat because I have longer arms and crouch at the Knees
somewhat during my swing (think of a smaller George Archer). I use
a Grafalloy VHM90 lite regular flex shaft in my driver (very low
torque) eventhough I average over 250 yards on my drives.
Bottom line.... get a forgiving set of clubs (perimeter weighted) and a
proper fit for your ability and swing. You likely won't want to trade
them in.
