Hello everyone.  

I was contemplating purchasing new clubs at the end of the season for next year.  I know it is early but I have started putting money aside so i had some more options and not really limited by price.  Planning on getting a full set of irons, driver, 3wood, maybe a few wedges.

i haven't swung any of these clubs yet. I went to the pga superstore with my ole lady today and was window shopping.  I looked and kind of practice swung a few clubs.  Didn't hit any balls because I didn't want to bore her or make her sit there for a few hours picking something out. (She actually wanted me to go there). 

 

But anyways.  I was looking at a few sets and the callaway black Apex, the cobra f1 irons, Nike vapors, and the mizuno mp 25.  

I really like the weight of the apex and Cobras. The nikes felt good in my hands along with the mp25. 

Rigt now I shoot a set of cobra baffler xl. I like the clubs had them for a few years  taking golf more serious and wanted to up my clubs.  Now I shoot roughly 80-90 ish I'm gettin better from when I started this year.  For driver I got a tour edge hot launch. It is ok I recently started hitting straight so that is a co fidance builder. Not even going into a driver discussion right now I will swing one before even thinking about one.

just wondering if anyone shoots any of these clubs and had any insight of what Is a good idea what isn't.  Not worried that much about price but want to keep it reasonable.    

Sorry for the long posts. 

Thanks everyone

I got custom-fitted for Nike Vapor Speeds last summer. They arrived in early July, I played 10 rounds, and then reloaded my Calla X20 Tours.

For Nike VS, 7i - 9i was good, wedges really good. Irons 4-6 were a disaster - went whichever direction. Probable cause: I'm only 5-foot-8, and the irons are 3/4" to 1" longer than most irons. If you're over 6-foot, may be OK: some tall HS kids seem to do well with them.

What you've done so far: You have a short list of clubs you like. From there, get on a launch monitor and see which ones give you the best numbers. You'll end up with two or three finalists - go with the one which makes you feel most confident.

Of course: you want to make sure you have the right shaft flex, shaft length and lie angle, and grip thickness.

For Apex irons lots of people really like the first-generation Apex; if you can find a used set that fits you, try them out. 

Focus, connect and follow through!
