Best Senior Golf Clubs 2021

Cleveland Men’s Launcher XL Halo Iron Set

Review

We had high hopes for this set because we are big Cleveland golf club fans. For these tests, we used the graphite shafts with senior flex configuration. This set comes with 7 clubs: 4 through 9 and PW. While a hybrid club is a cross between a fairway wood and an iron, these clubs were more of a cross between a hybrid and an iron. And we really liked them. These clubs were very forgiving and provided great distance. Hitting straight shots with great loft was an absolute breeze.

The clubs are very light and swung nice and smooth across the board. These clubs were really good quality – typical from Cleveland. We were blown away by the feel of these clubs. You can certainly buy standard irons that have better feel. But with the amount of forgiveness these clubs provide, it is amazing how much feel they deliver. For those of you who don’t mind spending a bit more for the best complete hybrid set, we fully endorse these clubs and can’t recommend them enough for seniors (I literally bought some for my dad for his 70th birthday).

Cobra is a brand well-known for its high-quality clubs, and this set falls right in line with Cobra’s quality standards. The Cobra golf clubs for seniors were impressive and innovative. This set includes 7 clubs: 5 through 9 irons, PW and GW. The thing that sets this iron set apart from all others is that all of the clubs are the same length. Yes, the length of the 5 iron is the same as the length of the pitching wedge. While this may seem strange because it’s so uncommon, it actually makes a lot of sense. One of the biggest struggles we hear about from golfers is regarding their stance and setup.

How far away from the ball should they stand? How wide should their feet be? How much bend should there be in their knees and waste? The answers to these questions change, depending on which club they are using, which only adds to the confusion and struggle. With this iron set, your stance can remain the exact same, regardless of the club. These irons had a nice amount of forgiveness, while also maintaining good distance. In fact, because the length of the 9 iron and PW are a little longer than usual, we were hitting farther distances with these than we were with 9 iron and PWs from other sets. The clubs also offered decent feel through contact with the ball. If you struggle with consistency, or just want to improve your consistency with irons, these are absolutely the clubs for you.

Our favorite set of golf clubs for seniors. Wilson is known for solid quality at affordable prices. This describes this set perfectly. This set includes 10 clubs: driver, 5-wood, 5-hybrid, 6 through 9 irons, pitching wedge, sand wedge, and putter. Also included is a cart bag and 3 head covers. The woods and the irons are all graphite shafts, which really helped give a boost in distance with slower swings. We also found that the combination of the flex and the club head design provided really good forgiveness. We really like that a sand wedge is included, making it a truly complete set (many of these more affordable complete sets stop at a pw). The putter was decent – not great, but not terrible either. This set is perfect for the casual golfer with a slower swing speed. Solid construction and consistent feel make this our top pick for best value complete club set.

We were excited to test a higher end complete set, this one by Cobra. The clubs we tested were the graphite senior flex shaft configuration. Included in this set are 12 clubs: driver, 3-wood, 5-wood, 4-hybrid, 5-hybrid, 6 through 9 irons, pitching wedge, sand wedge, and putter. Also included is a quality cart bag. We often find that regardless of the configuration, when we venture into the higher end clubs, they tend to leave beginner to intermediate players and seniors in the dust. This set was not that way at all. We found the weight, flex, and feel very favorable to senior players or players with slower swings. We really liked the driver and woods.

They hit consistently long and really had nice, large sweet spots and very nice forgiveness. The irons were excellent. Hitting the ball fat didn’t put any strain on the hands, arms, or joints. They also provided nice height and distance. We really liked the putter in this set – maybe more than any other putter we’ve tried in a complete set. It had a really soft touch through contact with the ball and naturally swung very smoothly. Of all the complete sets we tested, this is hands down the best set for seniors in our opinion. They are a little more expensive, but the quality of this set far surpasses most of the other complete sets. These are the type of clubs that will help you get better, without making you work too hard to get there. All things considered, this is actually a really value for a very high quality complete set.
