My clubs are Knight Virage. A cheap set that only cost me $100 on sale at Canadian Tire. I've got no complaints with the irons since they seem to be pretty good quality and work as well as some of my friends expensive irons. I only have two concerns with cheap clubs. The first is how they fit. Standard length works well for me but some may need to have them fitted. Second concern is the driver. In my experience, the drivers from cheap sets don't stack up with the "name brands" in either quality or performance. I've bought a few cheap department store drivers and also tried out a few from other golfers. I've found they just don't hit like the quality drivers that you have to pay more money for. Technology in good drivers and the quality of material is so far advanced IMHO that you probably would be better off investing in a Cleveland, Nike, Calloway, etc. driver especially if you play more then 3 or 4 rounds a year. You can find high quality drivers at very good prices on Ebay as long as you know what you are looking for. Also, end of season sales or start of season sales at golf shops is a good place to pick up "last years model" really high quality driver with good savings off the original price.
