need a new club

[Newbie Collection Agency]

Hi im 16 years old and Im fairly new to playing the game of golf seriously but I have always gone to courses with my dad and hit a ball here and there but this year I have really gotten serious about it and now play full rounds of golf with my dad. I am looking for a club that would be good for about 170-200 yrds. Just to let you know how far I can hit my other clubs so you can get a better idea of what I need to get, I hit a sw 75yrds, pw 100-115yrds, 9 iron 120, 8 iron 135, 7 iron 140-150, and 6 iron 150-160, then my 3 wood which im not too sure how far but its over 200. These are the clubs I am consistent with, my driver and long irons I dont use because im usually all over with them. I am thinking about a 5 wood or maybe even a hybrid club. So again what would you reccomend me using to get between 170-200 yrds?

go to a golf store with one of the computer simulators and try out some different clubs, that shoud give you an idea what to buy. club and shaft

Yea, I agree with Dan. That's probably the easiest and you'd be able to try out all different things.

I hit my Ping G2 7 wood around 175-200, which falls in perfect with your distances. I hit the clubs you mentioned the exact same distance, so try out a ping 7 wood.

But, like the other guys said, try out the golf stores, and their computer programs.

I went to test out some clubs at the store on the computerized screen thing. I really liked the Cleveland halo 22* 3i hybrid. I was hitting it about 170-180yrds. Is this a pretty descent club? Are they good for hitting out of the fairway rough and fairway bunkers? Do you think this will make a good long approach club for me?

thanks,
steve
