  You seem to be doing pretty well with what you have. Those R9's are a similar speed to your irons but how you can catch that meter with those balls I have no idea.

  The SLDR is a great driver and if you matched it with a similar 3 wood you'd get a bit more distance but it would cost you a fair amount and then your irons would be faster than your woods.

  With wedges when you decide to upgrade them I'd go for the top rated ATV's but most people seem to prefer the Clevelands. Personally I find the ATV's easier to use and to calculate distances.

  As for putters I think you'd like the Versa as it has similar increments to the Spiders.

  As Courtney said, you are doing very well with what you have. The sldr driver at lvl 89 seems to be a really good driver. I have not personally used it but many who have say it keeps up with all but the rl at lvl 98. Also the g20 3 wood at (i think) lvl 81 is very good. I used it for a long time with great results. The cleveland wedges are excellent but it takes a little while to figure them out. Whatever you decide to do just enjoy the game.

  Good advice!

  I recommend to exchange the wedges first. At first, get a top notch 100 yds ATV or Cleveland (to your liking) and enjoy dart throwing and back-zipping from 100 yds out. I suppose that the lvl 42 Ping shows as much roll as my aged Z-Satin of lvl 38. Second, replace the mid wedge if you want. It may not be as urgent but it may be big fun. Concerning the short wedge, make your own decision - I'm gonna stick with my trusty Satin.

  Thanks for the help, I appreciate it.  I went ahead and upgraded my 3 wood, mainly because of the cost.  I'm ok with the wedges I have now, but was thinking of upgrading the iron set but need to move up another level where the G20's are available.
