fmagnets:Absolute junk. Throw them in the nearest pond.
Agreed. But get the value out of them first. They offer one less thing to think about when you are beginning. Play with them for a little while and get used to what happens around the green. Try different shot options with them (pitch, chip, flop, full, punch) to get the feel of each shot. Once you have done that (and it should only take a few rounds) throw them in the nearest pond (but not Saint Andrew's #1, because that is where I throw all my old clubs and it is starting to fill up now :))
