The sales assistant told me that Nike clubs and Taylor Made clubs and other "big brands" are expensive because you are basically paying for the advertising and sponsoring of players. Nike pay Tiger Woods a fortune so thay have to get their money in somehow.

There are some good sets on Ebay at the moment. £290 for a set Of Taylor Made RACs LTs. American Golf they are £499! Only thing that worries me buying off Ebay is the authenticity of the clubs, plus not having chance to have a bat with them.

for £290 you could have set of irons that fit you perfectly.
if your serious about your game then i think this is your best.
i used to think my mizuno's were the dogs but my apex irons wipe the floor with them.
