A little background...I played golf for fun in middle school and high school but upon getting to college gave it up for other "activities" haha. I was never particularly good so I am probably back at square one at this point. I am now looking to get back into it since I am graduating this spring and am in the process of building a bag.

Trying to keep it under $1000 and build a bag I can grow into. What I have picked out so far...not purchased but pretty sure this is what I want.

Rocketballz Irons 2012 4-PW & AW: $450

R-11s TP Driver: $260

Rocketballz 3 Wood 15*: $160

What do you guys think and what do you think I should add to complete the bag? Obviously need a putter but anything else?

56 degree sand wedge(I am a big fan of mine below) and a 5 wood. Or you could go with a 3 Hybrid, but probably the 5W.

i would recommend a hybrid/utility wood in the 19-21 degree range. something that you can hit around 200-220 if your irons are not there. also another wedge (depending upon what degree your 'AW' is)

as far as putters go, i think its crucial to get a style/type that you are comfortable and put well with. there is basically no technology in putters so get something you put well with. you can go to Dicks or Sports authority and putt around all day sampling the different styles.

Think I am going to end up going with...a lot of Rocketballz. Hope I don't look too much like a tool.

Rocketballz Driver 10.5*

Rocketballz 3W 15*

Rocketballz Iron Combo 3H, 4H, 5-PW

Odyssey White Ice #3 Putter

I will fill in the wedges when I get the PW down.

Thanks for the responses! I think I will be glad I switched to the 3H, 4H

I don't know if I want to give advice to a knicks fan... Go WARRIORS! But since you are around a 20 handicap I would not reccomend a 3wd. Try a 4wd, it will be a lot easier to get it up in the air and will most likely go further for you. The rocketballz 3wd was already low launching and a 4wd would just help a little. Other than that all I would add would be a sandwedge. If you like the feel of the rocketballz you can get a rocketballz sandwedge also. Good luck getting back into the game.

Thanks for the advice...even though I'm a knicks fan haha. Injuries are killing us this year so you don't have much to worry about!

I will look into the 4 wood. Placing my order now. The handicap was just a number I put in to get past the page. I really have no idea what it is but I am sure it is up there haha.

Great choice of irons, and the RBZ 3 wood is awesome, but I'm not sure someone of a 20 handicap needs a TP driver...

But anyway, the setup I would go for (and the one I use)  is,  driver, 3 wood, 3 hybrid, 4-aw irons, 54 degree wedge, 58 degree wedge, and putter.
