  As a Pro, your scores below 40 are impressive - you'll soon be promoted to Tour Pro (same tees, faster greens)!

  The budget way is to continue until level 41 and make some decisions then to buy two short wedges (ATV or Ping) and a 3WD replacing the driver. Read the tips about putting and chip/pitch in the "Help" forum.

  You may also buy some wedges now but you'd have to change them quite soon.

  For woods and irons, the level 30+ R11 may be a good early buy. Be aware though that this will accelerate your Master promotion, feeding the need for better clubs on longer tracks!

  Simple advce, keep ur money in ur pocket and level up before u tier up, then buy good clubs for the Master/ tour master tier.

  Below master u r wasting ur money.

  Yep, some of these clubs have faster meters than the Starters. Cure 1 is practicing, cure 2 are custom balls which will cause regular costs due to wearing and getting lost. IF you want to follow #2, start with the cheapest balls - they help, too. A good budget choice are the Tour-SD balls.

  Edit: You may want to drop one of the drivers and add a custom 3WD.

  I'm going to answer honestly but less politely than necessary for other players' sake. Please excuse me in advance for this piece of my mind. No offence intended.

  While your buys gave you better clubs than the Starters are, I'm sorry to see that you bought without asking in detail and deviated from our hints.

  R11 driver: not much use beside the L0 MAX driver - a 3WD would have been better and cheaper. Please unequip one of them.

  No custom 3WD - this leaves a big gap in your game, and the Starter 3WD is crap IIRC.

  R11 irons: o.k. but not really necessary - there have been hints to better clubs at lvl 48(?).

  Cleveland wedges (lvl 22): I'm guessing, lower quality than the lvl41 Pings or lvl39 ATV which I proposed. At least they are cheap and replace the crappy Starter wedges.

  Spider putter: In my personal opinion, also too early. If you had asked, I'd have told you, "no putter below 500 crs". Three reasons in short: good quality of the Starter putter + player's learning curve + quality of higher level equipment.

  Heads up - have fun!

  Happy to see you want to get better.  My Country Club has a nice free for all, website that is full of tips from players on WGT.  They are Golf tips that have helped me so much.
