    Hi everyone,

    just reluctantly made Master,

    I dont think i'm good enough, i am still using the starter irons so how have i made Master?

    i was going to get the G20 irons at level 83 anyway,but now looks like i will have to,

    have a look at my stats and tell me what needs to be done,

    and any tips.

    thanks all.

    I would lose the hybrid, and get the 56 degree cleveland wedge in its place. Then I would go with the rocket bladze irons or the G20's. You should be set.

    The first stat I look at when someone says this is the Sand% and the Scramble%. Your's aren't too good at the moment but you have good wedges. This tells me you can't get up and down from the sand or the rough most of the time. It's easy to say don't hit there but everybody does. Knowing how to get up and down is key.

    IMO, I would wait for your G20s and learn those 2 wedges first. You can add a 3rd like suggested above ( a good move) but what you really need to do is learn how to punch, pitch, chip and flop with them. This is the part of your game that will help you the most. Your putts will be shorter, you'll save pars and your scores will drop, just by learning what you already have

    If you do decide to get a new iron set and decide to go with a third wedge, match up your 3rd wedge based on the distance of the pitching wedge in the iron set you get. If you go with the G20 iron set then the 56 degree Cleveland would be a good choice as it would give you a gap of 15 yards between the PW and your third wedge which is a good gap. But if you go with the Rocket Bladez then you would need either a 110 yard wedge or a 115 yard wedge to give you a good gap between the 125 yard wedge in the Bladez set and your 3rd wedge. The 52 degree Cleveland at 115 or the 54 degree Taylor Made ATV at 110 yards would be a better match than the 56 degree 100 yard Cleveland. The 25 yard gap between the Bladez PW and the 56 Degree Cleveland is just too big IMO.
