New... Looking for probably the obvious

[goreje]

Hello from Katy Tx. New to the forum and initially looking for input on whether club upgrade would possibly improve my scores. Currently playing with the below set. I purchased these in 1996 from K-Mart while in high school while deciding if I really wanted to take up the game and have stuck with them ever since: Northwestern Pro Bilt Plus D- 12Deg (smaller than a 460cc head) 3W, 5W, 7W 3i thru PW Looking to get fitting by Ping at Massengale Academy and play the Ping brand. Would I see better scores or better control/distance from upgrading to newer technology? Normally in the low to mid 90's have had a couple mid 80's.

Welcome.  It's impossible to say if you would get better with new equipment.  Ping is a pretty great brand though. :)

If you're committed to the game and can afford it, I say go for it.  But I wouldn't guarantee any improvement.  No real way to know that.

Good luck!
