    Hello,

    I have around 3000 credits to spend. I will be Lvl 47 very soon, what upgrades would make the best improvement to my game? I currently play:

    R9 10.5 (l20+) Driver

    Burner 2.0 Superfast (L12+) 3 Wood

    WGT Starter hybrid 3 Wood

    Burner Irons (L10+)

    Z Satin 54 wedge (L14+)

    Spider Putter (L19+)

    WGT Starter Balls

    Everyone needs to do their own homework, but here are a few ideas that might help.   

    1.  Consider 3 wedges in your bag and dump the hybrid.  This can give you more full shots at the target.

    2.  Keep even gaps along your PW and wedges to cover more distance. 

    3.  Look for clubs with similar attributes (trajectory, precision, meter speed etc.).  Along with even distance gaps, this can help with consistency and rhythm.

    4.  Look at the bags of successful players and see what they use.

    5.  You can rent clubs to try them out.  But keep in mind it takes time to get used to them.

    Considering your current average I would suggest getting something with a slower meter and more forgiveness, i.e. either Raptures or the K15s. Also the 64 Satin wedge as it is a great club.

    Add some Tour-SD balls (or Tour-S) and you will fly through TP tier.

    Oh, and try getting the entire sets of the clubs to match meter etc.

    Agreed about the K15s, I use them and like them a lot.  That said, if he is going to reach Master tier any time soon, then the K15 driver (250yds) is difficult to make some fairways from those tees and he would perhaps be better to just get the Iron set of the K15s, and wait til level 58 for the G10 driver (270yds) or the R9 at lvl 62 (275yds).

    I'm having this particular driver dilemma myself right now, as I have posted elsewhere.

    I agree with everyone else, look for slower meters:

    I suggest this driver

    these irons  or the irons I use

     

    I think your 3wood is fine if you can hit it well as far as distance, but the Ping around lvl 47-48 has a slower meter and an extra 5 yards, but I wouldn't worry about that unless you are having trouble missing your mark a lot with it.

     

     

    this wedge is a MUST IMO.

     

    Best of luck and let us know what you decide on.

    I changed pretty much my whole bag when I moved up to Master tier. Partly because my driver and 3 wood made it difficult to reach many holes but also I leveled up quickly giving me more options available.

    My suggestions are:

    Drop the hybrid and pick up 3 wedges and try for an even gap between them (including the iron set wedge)

    Consistent meter speed...I've found this really helps, all except my putter have the same meter speed. You get used to 1 club and you can ding them all (well, thats the idea lol)

    Cheers
