B-Square: any good?
03-22-2006, 09:40 AM
A low budget supermarket (in Belgium) is selling golf equipment of B-SQUARE at very low prices.
A driver (titanium, 420cc, lift 10,5° or 11,5°) costs only 45 euro (54 US Dollars).
A whole set is only 229 euro (277 US Dollars) and includes:
- bag
- trolley
- 8 irons: 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, PW and SW
- 3 woods: 1, 3 and utility
- putter

Re: B-Square: any good?
What do you think? A decent bag and cart cost that much. A decent set of shafts for the whole set is at least 3 times that much. BUT if it's all you can afford, it's better than nothing. Advice - look for some used equipment on eBay if cost is a concern.

Re: B-Square: any good?
actually, money is not so much the problem
but I only started golf 3 months ago and maybe spending much money on a set is now overkill ??
or can a rookie notice the difference between a mediocre set and a top set ?
And on ebay in Belgium is not so much golf equipment.

Re: B-Square: any good?
Here's the set I just bought via EBAY - should be getting them in sometime next week. They're my first ever NEW set - was playing with some used (very worn down) Tommy Armour 845s before that I got for like 70 bucks at Golf Galaxy.

In a couple weeks I'll be expecting the F2 Series 56 degree wedge from the family since it was my Bday this past weekend

Re: B-Square: any good?
LIDL huh?
I just picked up a practice net, a pair of leather shoes and 24 balls for €75
the full set (bag clubs etc) was only €179 over here (Ireland)
To be honest from what I saw that set would a suit a beginner/occasional golfer just fine.
At that level the equipment is the least of your worries...
Go now before they are all gone!

It was indeed LIDL !
I bought the shoes and the driver.
My friend bought the whole set; mainly cause he only had 1 iron 6 ...
I have all the leftovers from my father and father-in-law, which is not to bad after all (includes 2 PING woods)

Re: B-Square: any good?
Hello I bought 3 years ago at LIDL Spain the whole set (200 €). In Spain I started to take lessons and afterwards in Austria. For the moment my handycap is PE (-56), my rounds are around low 100 to 110. An exceptional high 80 was my best up today.
All my teaching pros tried the set and all said: More than enough for the next years!
This year LIDL sold mens and ladies sets in Austria, but I was not able to get one for my wife, everthing sold out immediatly.
After three years of use the wear is noticable on the clubface, but nothing dramatic.
In comparison to the old Sam Snead Set from Wilson and the more older Maxfly Professional Set from Spalding both a gift of my brotherinlaw, my distance is better: 140 m with the iron 4 against the same distance with the iron 3 of the old sets. The B-Square is clearly more tolerant to my rookies foolness.
A Cobra set I tried once was more tolerant, but has less feel.
But as wedge I prefer the old Spalding (aluminium) Wedge.
Finally: Seems the Set is an older version of Browning products.
Best greetings
Walter
