  My opinion only:

  Level up to 59.

  Buy:

  G20 Full Set (L59+) 3,995 Credits

  Daytona Putter 2011 (L55+) 725 Credits

  TaylorMade ATV 54° Wedge (L38+) 495 Credits

  TaylorMade ATV 60° Wedge (L39+) 495 Credits

  TaylorMade ATV 64° Wedge (L39+) 495 Credits

  3 Pack of Nike 20XI-X Balls (L48+) 400 Credits (as many as you want)

  Get these clubs, take the time to learn them (especially punch shots and spin differences on wedges) and you'll improve no end. These will get you to Legend and maybe beyond if your putting is good.

  The putter is not what I use but many Tour Legends use it.

  +10 on the clubs!

  Good balls, too!

  Alas, for practice purposes, cheaper balls may do:

  - WGT Tour-SD 65 crs

  - Srixon 150(?) crs

  - Callaway level 33, 250 crs

  I would wait till level 59 and get the G20 set. Then buy 3 evenly spaced wedges, maybe the ping 105 or 95yrd, the 75yrd and the 60yrd, they cost 200 each. You can upgrade these later though to the CG's or ATV's. You will need to drop the hybrid club to make space for all 3 wedges. There really wont be too much use for this club as it's only 5 yrds longer than your 3i and I think an extra wedge will more useful. Sell it back to the pro shop if you like.

  Then finally I would get the Rossa putter, it's not only a good putter but  definitely the best value for money. You can also look at the Max putters, the level 51 Nike, 35 Spider & even the new level 33 Odyssey. Either of these are going to be better than than the starter and you will be able to use them forever if you like. Just take a look at the increments and see what you prefer.

  Hope this helps.

  Good Luck!

  P.S While going back and forth to the pro shop, I see the same suggestions have been made. :-)

  I'd prefer the Nike +51 putter, is much forgiving and the speed is slower.

  Don't ask me.  I waste all my money on hookers and blow.
