Package sets are some of the best and cheapest ways to get into golf. With an array of brands producing sets that, price-wise, range from the £300 MacGregor CG3000 Package Set (opens in new tab), all the way up to the £1000 TaylorMade RBZ SpeedLite Package Set (opens in new tab).
Featuring a driver, fairway wood, hybrid, 6-9 iron, pitching wedge, sand wedge, putter and golf bag, the Wilson Prostaff SGI Golf Package Set is one of the best package sets (opens in new tab)on the market, offering superb value for money at around £350.
What’s more, with there being 10 clubs provided in the set, it opens up the possibility for you to expand your bag. Perhaps you could add a lob wedge and longer iron to really sharpen up the gaps in distance.
In this review, I tested the ‘Standard, Right-Handed, Steel shaft’ version of the package set, but neatly, Wilson also offers a variation of the same package sets, depending on your height and whether you are left or right-handed.

Beginning with the positives, I found the lower end of the bag to be fantastic, with the irons and putter the best performers among the setup.
Fitted with a sturdy men’s regular flex shaft, the irons and wedges feel really strong whilst swinging, with the thick top line and large sweet spot making the ball feel huge when you are setup. On top of that, the ball flies very well and the clubs provide unbelievable forgiveness on off-centre strikes.

Moving onto the putter, I found it to be very good; it was just a shame that a headcover was not provided. I was particularly impressed with the look of the club at address. It gives you major confidence in your stroke thanks to a small dot and alignment line on the traditional blade design.
Although it felt a little longer than perhaps your average length putter, there is plenty of grip available to adjust to a good comfort level. However, a putter is a very personal thing, so you could always visit your local professional and get it readjusted.
