  I need help in picking the right stuff at my current lvl27 or lvl 30 wiich is when a fairway driver is avaliable. I like to have clubs with spin and forgivness but just can't make up my mind and I have read alot of post on all the stuff I have now except on my wedges and fairway driver thats where I fall short I just bought the cheaper wedges for the spin. Plus I'm still getting use to the new iron set.  I  have Big Bertha driver.....        Irons Taylor made rocket ballz.....     Putter is Spider by Taylor made.... Wedges are just a step up from the starters with just a little spin.    Need help for sure on what wedges to get and fairway driver. I have been looking at the big bertha3 or wait until lvl 30 to get Taylor made R11. but don't know what 1 to get PLZ help. ty for your time.

  The BB is more expensive, has a lower trajectory, and has less precision than the R11. Only thing going for it is its meter speed, 3 more yards, and spin (though all just .5 better in both categories). The R11 is much better of a choice, and a whopping 600 credits cheaper. And with that, you can buy 2 PING Gorges when you get to L41/42.

  I looked at what you had in your bag and you have the Big Bertha and not the R11.Why?

  Was that to me or the first post? I'm at a totally different level (97), so it's apples to oranges then. I do though have both, I just like the BB (L89)'s slower meter, as the R11 (the L84 version) is faster (plus it's not as long).

  I'd wait for the L52 Nike irons (not really that far away i you get the consecutive days played bonus every day), the L48 R1 driver, L33 Callaway 3w and L40-ish wedges (90, 75 and 60y). You could easily play from the tips with that set. The next upgrade worth coughing up credits for will come in the late 70s (level), with the 3 CG wedges and either Speed bladez, or wait for the L85 Nikes. And then the late 80s are the time to upgrade the driver and 3w, I like both Berthas very much.

  Edit: Like I wrote in another thread, the trajectory of those irons you currently own is much to low and they don't have enough spin, so you won't be able to stop the ball on any elevated green.

  P.S.: As for the putter, the L35 Ghost was the first club I bought and will probably never part from it. I'm an off ding putter and I couldn't putt with any putter that has more forgiveness than this 1 (totally changes the clicking spot). I love it and I think it's the best value for money on this site, but that's just my opinion.

  If I were yoiu the first thing I would do is get rid of that Spider putter and get the level 22+  Odyssey Versa #7 putter it may only be 3 levels higher than the Spider it is light years ahead in performance. The Spiders performance in my opinion is no where close to what its attributes show. When I had it I found in only marginally better than either the starter or beginner. In fact I feel the starter might actually out perform it. Grant it the Versa is over 1000 credits higher than the spider but it could be worth it by cutting off many strokes from your game.

  my humble advice to you is dont buy anything or if you must just rent those clubs that you like and quickly level up ..to level 45 or 48....thats where ..you need to buy stuff.....this will save you tons of credits....or better still wait for free rentals period...:)...

  for pros levelling up to  masters ..the best clubs there is are the max irons at level 45 .

  they are the most accurate irons ..pair it with a 3.1/2 spin dot balls and they are deadly ..buy it  only if you can handle the meter speed..why not wait for free rentals period and try it.....the cheapest putter and value for money is the rossa at level 55....the rest are not worth buying ....keep your spider till you can get the rossa putter...gd luck man
