Dunlop ddh Golf Club set for beginner?!?
I am (36 male, right hand/ standard) and satrting to play golf now and bought a complete set of Dunlop ddh - 17 pic (12 clubs + 3 covers + bag and bag cover head) for US $139.99 (was $250)+ Tax from Big 5 sports goods! so do you think is that a good golf club set for me? how about the price? do you know about the TEXAN or INFERNO brand which now you may find in: http://www.golfoutletsusa.com for $80 or even Wilson for $200 in Golf exchane stores. Please let me know which one is better?!
Of the four brands you listed, Wilson is the one I'd look most closely at. The Wilson/Staff brand is old and well respected. Dunlop also is a generally known quantity, but not nearly as much as Wilson. The other two I've never heard of and would steer away from.
However, in general, I caution people against buying department store and outlet "sets." They often are of inferior design and materials -- even when they come from a name brand. One way in which they cut costs so that the clubs can be offered as a discount set is by using a zinc-aluminum alloy instead of steel. These clubs will break; heads will fly off the shafts, etc. They often use second-quality shafts, etc.
Look at the box. See if it says that clubs are steel. Then test with a magnet. If it doesn't say steel and if a magnet doesn't stick to the face, take them back.
However, the answer to which is "better" really can't be answered without knowing so much more. There are so many variables involved in golf clubs: shaft flex (degree of "whipiness"; torque (degree to which the shaft twists at impact); clubhead loft (face angle of each clubhead); lie (angle of the shaft when the club sole lies flat on the ground); club length for each club (no these are not standardized); overall weight, swing weight, grip diameter, and so on. Each model from each manufacturer is different (indeed, due to manufacturing tolerances, each club is slightly different -- that's why some golfers will declare a particular club in their set as their "favorite" -- the variances in manufacture have "accidentally" made that one the perfect fit for them.
To find whether or not I got a good price on something, I comparison shop on the internet. I check http://www.golfsmith.com , http://www.golfgalaxy.com ; http://www.rockbottomgolf.com for retailers and then I check Ebay using http://www.stealgolf.com , which has the ebay lisings broken down by manufacturer.
All that said, if you're serious about golf and have some extra cash, my best advice would be to take the set back and go to a well-stocked pro shop or a reputable clubmaker-fitter and get fitted. The game is hard enough without playing with clubs that are ill fitted to your skill level, height, weight,personal flexibility, etc. A clubfitter will evaluate you and your game, have you try several clubhead-shaft-grip combinations, testing you against each one until he finds the one that is best. Be sure to let him know what price range you want to stick to before beginning.

Part of rat found in frozen veggies claims East Texan
Texan kills thieves: Hero or homicidal? News Headline!?
HOUSTON - The cha-chick of a shell entering a shotgun's chamber rattled through the 911 line just before Joe Horn stepped out his front door.
Horn, 61, had phoned police when he saw two men break into his neighbor's suburban Houston home through a window in broad daylight. Now they were getting away with a bag of loot.
"Don't go outside the house," the 911 operator pleaded. "You're going to get yourself shot if you go outside that house with a gun. I don't care what you think."
"You want to make a bet?" Horn answered. "I'm going to kill them." He did.
Admirers, including several of his neighbors, say Horn is a hero for killing the burglars, protecting his neighborhood and sending a message to would-be criminals. Critics call him a loose cannon. His attorney says Horn just feared for his life.

I wish he was my neighbor. Neighbors should look out for each other and their property. He gave them warning but they chose to break in and steal anyways. Also, he had called 911 already and couldn't get the help needed so i think he did the right thing.

If you are traveling within the USA, you can take any kind of food you want in a checked suitcase. There is no restriction on food or drinks at all. As to how much, the general rule is each bag should not weigh more than 50 lbs, and you are allowed 2 bags. The question is if your airline would charge you for checked baggage, some do and some don't.
