  Welcome to the game Paul,

  Personally I would hold off purchases until the mid 30 levels as any clubs you buy now will not last as your progresss through the tiers (which does not take long and you are doing well).

  Then it comes down to budget. If you have money to burn, by all means upgrade as the starters clubs are neither precise or forgiving.

  I agree except I would hold off to level 49 & get a complete set of Raptures with 3 wedges at 60,  80,  & 100 yards approx. Ditch the hybrid. This can take you up to TM if you choose. Good luck.

  Yep the raptures are very good. I  would work out what clubs you would ideally want to buy - then when you can afford them (and the level), get the three wedges. With the wedges work your way back from the sets PW and have evenly spaces wedges.

  Obviously a ball that offers spin woukd be an advantage with the wedges too. Wedges will save several shots per round.so if you did wait till level 49 you could still scramble a good score.

  Yes the Raptures are good but the slower meter speed could hurt him in the long run. As most of the better clubs have much faster meter speeds and they can be hard to get used to if you had the slower raptures for a long time. It took me almost 6 months to get used to the faster meter speeds after using the Raptures for almost a year.
