is golf hard to learn

jhon boy

was thinking of starting playing .............. how much would a starter set cost

Sir Arthur Daley

Argos do great starter sets, some assembly required.

Get a starter set on adverts, far cheaper second hand.

Its hard to play well but easy to enjoy it if that makes sense.

If your young then it a lot easier to learn simply because of flexibility.
There is no better game and the Handicap system is a great way of equalling out all standards.
It's about the only physical game that you can take all the way to the Grave.
played Slade valley a couple year ago when an 84 yr old got a hole in one.

Go for it you won't regret it.

Dayor Knight

Easy. After about 35 years I'm starting to figure a few things out. Make sure to get a few lessons to start.

If you're a Corkman I've the makings of a set you can have as a starter set. Anywhere north of Cashel will cost (joking).

Have never heard of anyone give up golf permanently other than through injury. As someone else said, go for it.
