Ok, I have been away from golf for several years for various reasons.  Little League, hunting, fishing, etc.  BUT my whole family is now wanting to play so of course I am excited to get back in.  I know I need to upgrade my Driver and fairway woods, and probably need a Rescue club as well as my woods are older Callaway Hawkeye.  My irons are Top-Flite Tour cavity back irons.  I don't have any complaints about them, but I am wondering if new ones would/could be an improvement.  Any thoughts or perspective?  Thanks.

If you have the money, new clubs could be beneficial as they will have new technology, however if there is nothing "wrong" with the ones you have I'd wait until the off season and buy clubs on sale.

The older TFT was similar to the 845s and are decent clubs. When I came back to golf in 2012 after not playing since the 90's I played older iron sets until the scores starting getting somewhat consistent. I'd gut it out with the TFT until you're convinced you've made enough progress to make spending the money worthwhile. I noticed the biggest differences in woods and putters so it made playing the older irons bearable.

I did pick up a little distance all things being equal, same loft and length etc. I couldn't care less about that. But I do care about how much more forgiving the new clubs are. That is a massive difference.

    • I’m not sure I agree. It’s just what the majority find more entertaining. Most people prefer women’s gymnastics over men in the Olympics. How much hype is there with the men’s compared to the women’s? I bet you can rattle off several big names in women’s gymnastics and only a handful of men. Women’s tennis …same thing. And sure enough, their purses are the same. However, WNBA, awful…LPGA, not near as much interest than PGA. Don’t think it’s really that complicated IMO.

    • Hence your Avatar!😜 I drink a lot of water during the day if I’m playing or exercising. I get cramps otherwise.
    • If you walk up to a food/drink kiosk at Magic Kingdom and ask the person for a cup of "magic water" they will give you a small cup of Sprite for free. About 3 fingers worth. They don't sell alcohol at MK anymore so I go over to one of the courses while she hangs out there. 
    • This isn't some kind of natural fact. It's a lot more complicated than this implies.
