  I think I told you already to buy the G20 3wood. 2x240 yds quality shots on any long hole.

  Sound & solid advice. 

  Get the L58    G/20  3W  its 495 credits. Well within your current budget.

  Also. As Alosso stated. It can be used as a driver.

  It should carry you to Level 81. By that time. you should have the 1495 credits saved for the G20 Driver.

   Wow, that very nice of you to welcome a gift, or you can do what most of us do, watch videos, take surveys, or everything else we can come up to earn free credits and then hig our wallet if we have it. Most of the time I dont, so i watch the videos, take the surveys and build up a credit pool. I am sorry not trying to be harsh, but I in the small length of time in WGT have never asked any members for a gift of a club or even gifts of balls. There are ways to earn them if you put the time in. Have a great day in WGT land though.

  I too agree - get yourself the G20 3W - at 495 credits and 235yd its great value. Also remember the punch shot using the 3W can be a very useful club. You have a driver rated at 247 yards - most greens should be gettable in regulation.

  Quite simply you do not have enough credits to get a decent driver that will give you the extra distance and precision.

  With the money you have saved, buy a 3rd Ping tour wedge - the 56 degree is rated at 90 yards and fits in well. This will save you more shots than getting just a few more yards off a drive with a driver that you will outgrow.

  For the record I find it a bit off saying you would accept a gift. Sometimes in life we have to work hard for our rewards!

  Coming back every month or two with the same story is way easier.
