Anyone try out any of the new drivers this winter? I know the new ping I-20 and the 2 taylormades are getting great reviews so far. I'm still sporting a ping G-5 so I'm probably do for a new one

Yup that's probably the same route I'd go just for the hundred dollars

New iron's going in the bag this year.. Haven't decided 100% yet but it's looking like TaylorMade Burner 2.0 5-PW.

Staying with my Cleveland Launher Driver and 3w, and Launcher Hybird 2i and 4i.

Also Staying with my CG15's 56 and 60


ProV1x will also stay the ball of choice this year as well.

I actually like the ProV1 better than the X.. How long do you guys keep a set of clubs? mine are about 4 years old??

[reggie21]

staying with the same old this year. i look into upgrading every 2 or 3 years, but only if i've been playing well... otherwise it seems like a waste.

ive been playing for probably 20 years and have had only 3 sets.. as long as i dont ding them up or there isnt a major technology change, i guess it seemed like every 7-8 years wuold probably be ok??

I don't think it's the same for woods and irons. Iron technology doesn't change as fast. Maybe ten years for irons, 4-6 for woods.

The iron's have now that I'm replacing are about 10 years old. They are TaylorMade RAC O/S. I honestly have no reason to replace them beside "want". I hit them great and score well. I think I'm giving in to the peer pressure from my buddies.

As for my woods every 2-3 years. But again I hit the ones I have well so it becomes need vs. want.

I'm a 8-9 Handicap with the hopes of getting that to a 7 this year... I guess it comes down to.... Will new clubs get me over the hump.
