  Without boring you with complete details, I shoot right around par, have a good long driver (285) play 10 credit ES balls, good iron set,  one premium 105 yd wedge and a cheap putter. What one club would you buy or is improvement at this point all about balls, course maps and 95% dings ? a ding is an accident for me as I am 66 with peripheral neuropathy and multiple myeloma otherwise I'd be playing real golf instead. Thanks for all responses/insults !

  You need to get a good high flight set of irons so you can play the harder courses.  Try to wait for L92 Nike irons.  3 iron will stick like the pw you have now.

  +1.  The Lvl 92 Nike irons will make a hugh difference in your game.  If you can't get there by the end of the month consider the Lvl 80 Nike Irons.  Either set is much better than your current Irons.  Good Luck.

  +1!

  If some credits are left, replace the Snake Eyes wedge by a 64° ATV or Cleveland (L39 and up). This will bring more reliability to your bunker shots and more precision close around the greens.

  And consider the Tour-SD balls...

  I have to agree with the irons, but the snake eye wedge and putter will also cost you shots.

  Even consider the G25's (lvl 83), faster meter speed but not lightening fast and a lot cheaper than the 92 clubs....so room to get a new wedge and/or putter.

  But you play for fun, so only upgrade if you really want to see an improvement in your scoring.....but with that comes tier promotion....so caveat emptor.
