I recommend that you get your clubs fitted by a professional rather than seeking advise of internet.  You need to go try out the clubs with a pro looking at your swing and your shot shapes to determine which set of clubs is best for you.

Don't take anyone's advise based purely on which club they like.

Obviously those are both great brands. But you really should at least see a fitter and hit both clubs with varying shafts/heads and see what comes out best for you. Like you said it’s not cheap so you want to have full confidence in your set.

If you live close enough to a Club Champion I highly recommend it (for a club fitting). Both me and my dad were fit there recently and the clubs I wanted to buy ended up not being a good fit for me at all. Plus, having the knowledge from the fitting makes me feel more confident (and less guilty) about the cost of new sticks.

    • Of course. I was just exaggerating for fun.  At the start of Hogan's era it is estimated that roughly half a million Americans played golf. By the end of his era, about 3.5 million.  During Tiger's era roughly 19 million at the start and nearly 30 million by the end of it.  To look at it another way during Hogan's era less than 0.5% of all high schools had a golf team. Compared to nearly half of all high schools during Tiger's era. If you really want to see a big difference more than 25 times as many Junior High Schools had golf teams during Tiger's era than did High Schools during Hogan's era.  And this says nothing of international competition. Up until 1974 the British used a different golf ball than did the Americans. It wasn't until 1990 that the Brits officially outlawed their "small ball". It wasn't until the 1960's that Americans really started to play in Europe at all. Very few Americans played The Open from the 1930's until the 1960's. The travel sucked and the prize money wasn't worth the trip. Remember air travel to Europe wasn't really a thing until at least the mid-1950's. Before that you would spend 2 weeks at sea.  It is simply not arguable that Hogan faced any where near as stiff of competition as did Tiger. In golf, yes, you play against the course, but the lowest score wins. It's much easier to win if far FAR fewer players are playing.  Personally, I'd suggest that the competition was way better vs Tiger than vs Jack. But at least that's a discussion. I'm sorry but arguing for Hogan's era it's no contest. Tiger definitively and definitely and by every measure faced tougher competition than did Hogan.
