There are stats on each equipment you buy,.. including a meter speed indicator.
There are Balls available with FEEL rating. These SLOW your meter speed.
The gold Putter is really not much more dynamic than the Starter Putter.
Your wedges are mixed - 1 beginner and 1 starter, you have 2 starters in your bag. Equip both.
For you right now, your best upgrade is a Driver and then Wedges and then Balls then Irons - Putter is the last thing you need to upgrade - Many Legends still play with Beginner putter.
ALL club upgrades will end up with faster meters. You should be able to handle them better as you progress.
May I suggest - in order of required most:
Driver: 2010 Rapture V2 9.5° Driver (L47+) - nice slow meter. Get your closer to the green!!
& Woods at this type - RAPTURES again.
Wedges: Ping Tour W (L42+) 64/ 60 & 58 (3 wedges)
Irons: 2010 Rapture V2 Iron Set (Graphite) (L48+) - Slow Meter again.
Then you would need balls.
GI - Game Improvement balls by WGT have a FEEL rating (Slows the meter)
Try the GI2-S or the GI3-S
The 'S" balls are for Spin
the 'D' Balls are for distance. (but the extra distance isnt indicated in the caddy club length)
IMO the 'S' balls give you far better control until you start moving up into the NIKES at Legend tier.
Srixons are great value.
Do some surveys or some of the offers. Persist, they DO pay off, get your credits up.
