Hi there, About a year ago, I bought a set of TM Burner Irons with graphite regular shafts. Back then I got fitted for them, and the fitter told me that I was right in the limit between regular and stiff. I was hitting my 8 iron around 130-135 yds then, and the shafts seemed to work for me at first. I liked the regular over the stiff ones pretty much because of the feel of the hit. I´ve been taking lessons lately, and my swing picked up a lot since that. I´m hitting my 8 iron about 150-155 yds now, but I´m starting to have a lot of problems with accuracy, probably because the regular graphite shafts won´t fit my swing anymore. I´m also having a lot higher trayectory, maybe a little more than i´d like. I read on this forum that steel shafts help a lot with accuracy compared to graphite, and I´m planning to buy a new set (AP1´s or JPX-800, haven´t decided yet...you could help with that too!! ). The question is: if I get steel regular shafts, would I get any improvement in accuracy compared to the graphite regular ones I own right now? Or should I go straight for the steel stiff shafts?...would stiff give me even more control?. Thanks for the advice.

I have had both Nike and FootJoy shoes, my advice is get the FJs (probably the superlites will fit your budget) and stay away from Nike, they don´t last much, and their "air chambers" will be blown in no time.

Just go for whatever bag you like!!. I used to have an old, ugly maroon Callaway stand bag, and decided to switch for a brand new 2.009 Cobra staff bag, which is really, really cool looking and I´m really happy with it. It is a little bit on the heavy side for the caddies, but since you use a cart most of the time it won´t be a problem.
