  graphite or steel shaft doesn't makes the differences between good and not so good set.. its more how balance and how it suits the way it plays that will determine how good a set of clubs are.. for me, i can't play well on a graphite set, steel does suit my game better.. opinion defers thou..

  its a shop. but they dont have fixed stock, if have means have, dont have means dont have.
  
  since u bought already, play until you feel that its time for you to upgrade la.
  Get some advice from friends around you who are golfers too.

  set of golf clubs at exactly $200. its the brand maxfli. though its not a very
  
  famous brand, but i'm practicing hard with it, and when i'm ready, i'll be
  
  purchasing the graphite type

  the steel shaft is harder to play than the graphite shaft ...

  there are always some nice discounted set ard if you look hard enough, place like golfer's network at times sell their Taylormade iron 6 pcs (5-9 & PW plus bag) set at pretty reasonable pricing.. or you can go at ebay or yahoo auctions too..

  graphite is pretty nice to play but for me and my game its just alittle bit on the softer side but then again it might allow better feel for the club head.. try both if you have kakis playing and feel for yourself whats better for you.. anyway, 1 set is never enough

  graphite gives you the whip but steel provides accuracy

  I believe there are also cheap clubs with graphite shafts but what the heck, get a set of clubs and start practising. Just get your swing in order before moving on to a better set. I sometimes marvel at how beginners spend heaps of money to buy a set of 5-star Honma clubs and cannot execute a decent swing.
