Set of clubs for returning golfer

[seahorse]

Hi OZgolfers

I am just getting back into playing after about 12 year hiatus from the game and am looking for an updated set of clubs.

I used to play with a set of cobra baffler blades and really liked them.
I was shooting mid 80's when I stopped playing and have played two 9-hole rounds lately and managed about half dozen par's and even a birdie.
Both rounds were about 10-12 over par.

I will be playing about once a week and am looking for a set of clubs.

I have been looking around the forums, ebay and online shops and am a bit stumped about what would be suitable for my level of play, as there is so much out there, and also something that i can improve with for the next couple of years.

I guess I am looking for something that will assist in improving my consistency, apart from lots of practice.

A friend, who is a single figure handicapper, suggested I go for something with stiff shafts as i have quite a quick swing.

Any and all suggestions, comments, advice (and clubs for sale) will be welcome and considered.

My budget for full set up (irons + driver + wedge/s) is about $600
or just Irons about $400
Willing to consider any offer

I am in West suburbs of Melbourne

Thanks in advance
Julian
