Re: help with clubs to pick

  So i just hit level 26 and ranked up to pro.  Problem is, this is going to put me back a tee box and I still have the default starter clubs.  I'm currently sitting on 617 credits from surveys and rank up.  I believe I will have some more credits coming in from weekly tournament placements, but probably a very low amount.  

  So my question is, seeing as I'm pretty much a complete noob.  What clubs do you guys recommend I save up my survey credits for?  How many credits do you think I will need and should I just keep saving until i'm around the 2000 credits range (Will take a while via surveys but, doable)?  Is there a level I should hit before I even think about purchasing clubs as to not waste my credits?  I also have 12 Srixon Z-Star balls from inviting friends to the game that I'm saving for tournament use to try and boost my credits even more.

   

  Thanks ahead of time for the help.

  I'd wait a little longer and then get a couple of wedges and a driver. The 10 cent balls with a touch of spin will help in the mean time. When you reach the Master tier you'll need better clubs so whatever you buy now will probably need replacing then so you don't really want to spend too much.

  Thanks for the advice and club invite.  Any advice in specific clubs and @ what level I want to look at.  I was looking forward to building my personal set from IRL (taylor made 2008 tour burners I believe, maybe 2007) but I don't think those are in the shop.  Just don't want to waste what little credits I can manage to amass via surveys and videos.

  These will help greatly until level 32 (R11's) or level 59 (G20's)

  They are the only ones at this level with High trajectory and are worth every penny.

  Three of my club members used them to tier up to Tour Pro from Amateur; including myself.

  Thanks for the advice guys, I think I will look into those L32 R11's once I get to that level.  I figure by the time I'm high enough level to buy the good clubs I will have amassed another 2k creds.  Though, if i can keep making shots like these with default clubs and balls, who needs a new set? http://www.wgt.com/replay.aspx?ID=6bd097e8-cd9e-4b7d-832a-a23e0098eaec

  I always advise wedges first, then woods, then irons and lastly putter but it can vary depending on your level.

  One idea would be to get the L26 Rocketblade 3w or the level 30 R11 3w and use this as a driver.  I did this and used it until I reached master level.   It will do you until you can get a good driver - it then can be used as a 3wood.....
