    For now you are fine as you wont move back another tee until you reach Legend tier . Now what you can do is go play a few practice stroke play rounds from the tips . This will give you an idea of how well the clubs that you now have will play from the tips . This way you can plan your next upgrades and get an idea of what you will need .

    I will suggest that all of your future club upgrades driver through wedges are high trajectory clubs . You will most definitely need them as they are the better clubs . The best clubs will begin around L83+ so those are the ones that you start eye balling . Start working on building up your credits and planning for those upgrades .Most players once they reach Master / Tour Master will upgrade in the following manner;

    Driver high trajectory

    3 Wood high trajectory

    3 Wedges high trajectory

    irons high trajectory

    Also when upgrading your clubs try to match your meter speed as much as possible . This allows for a more consistant meter speed and also a smoother meter as well . If you go take a look at my clubs or other higher tiered players you will get a better understanding of what I mean . Theres a thread titled "Advice to New Players ">>>>>> use the search box and look it up its a very good read with great tips to help you out . Hope this helps and good luck with your game .

    Very good advice. The driver you have will carry you to Legend very nicely. It did for me.

    I went with the 85 Nike Vapor  driver after the level 48. Driver, Irons and 3WD of the vapor is solid for legend.

    Thanks guys. Just looking ahead. Is there a driver that stands out like the level 48 though? I am not seeing anything that looks far and away better.

    I think I am leaning towards the L79 Taylor Made. I should be getting close to Legend by then and I will have the credits.

    Can confirm the L79 TM is fantastic. 282 yds, high trajectory, meter is good and the forgiveness is there if you don't ding.

    You need to consider what Irons you will be looking at by then.  The L79 SLDR and the Nike Vapor L85 drivers are both very good.  I have used both.  The Nike Vapors  are a 4.0 meter speed.  The L79 SLDR is 3.5 meter speed.  You might want to keep that difference in mind.

    Thanks guys, the level 48 I am now using is the same swing meter as the level 79. That is one reason I like it too.

    Went I changed to the level 59 irons it took me quite a while to get used to them. I actually had to start using the 250 credit balls I am using now to get them to work to my liking. I will keep these for a bit anyways. Better wedges might be in my future to.
