Steven bought $100 golf clubs at Play It Again Sports and wonders if he made a mistake. David breaks down his "restart plan" for new golfers - and spoiler alert, it's not about expensive equipment.
What we discuss:
- Steven's Play It Again Sports shopping experience and the "fattest clubs" advice
- David's three priorities for beginners: lessons, expectations, and etiquette
- Why a $500 driver won't fix your swing (but a $120/hour lesson might)
- The brutal truth about virtual golf lessons vs. in-person instruction
- Course etiquette essentials - from divot repair to reading the room
- Steven's revelation about needing golf clothes (and his Caddyshack fashion goals)
- Realistic expectations: why Oak Hill 2027 might not be in the cards
Key takeaway: "Clubs don't make the player, the player makes the clubs" - focus on fundamentals first, gear second.
