Hello I need help choosing a new set of golf clubs. I am 20 in 2 months and have been playing golf since I was 10 and have been okay at it and I really enjoy it. My first set of clubs were a miss match of clubs and then my second set of clubs I bought were a set of Wilson clubs. Ever since I bought them I have been unhappy with them lucky I only payed $100 for them. I can't seem to find anything about them online all I know is they say Wilson County Tour on them and they look quite modern. The woods are to round with no loft they irons are graphite and are very hard to hit and the wedges are pretty bad to. The only thing good about this set is the hybrid. Has anyone heard anything about this set? I don't think that I am bad because I can hit good shots I just think that is the clubs.  I usually only play 9 holes and score around 40 on a par 32 at Safety Beach Golf Course in Melbourne Australia. I am looking to get a new set of clubs that will hopefully improve my game. I want to get a set of steel irons as I hate the Graphite. What should I buy? I am looking at getting a new driver woods hybrid irons and wedges and a putter preferably all the same brand my budget isn't to low but I don't want to spend to much a bit over a grand at tops. Thanks in advance to anyone that can help!

Welcome to the site @Billy66681

I would recommend going to a golf store and hitting a bunch of different irons and woods.  Tell the proprietor you are looking to buy a set and want to try a lot.  Most good stores will let you.  Then, I would recommend they fit you when you decide to buy.  If cost is an issue, I would look at used irons sets and woods as these can be great bargains.

It is hard for us to tell you what to buy because we are not you!  The clubs have to feel, sound and look good to you and meet your budget.

Best of luck.

    • Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.
    • As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
