My question for yall, what else do I need? I have a putter and just need time and practice with it, but what else do I need to fill in the gaps? Can yall recommend a new driver that may be better for me? Do I need a 5 wood? Do yall prefer woods over hybrids?



A 56* wedge would be helpful.

as for drivers it really is personal preference. You would probably do well going and getting a good driver thats a model or two old. Like getting an R11 or so.

woods and hybrids are different clubs. Woods will go farther hybrids are suppose to be easy to hit. Think of it has a 3iron that is easy to hit.


Santa Maria is the only course that comes to mind for a driving range right now


if you have any other questions ask. Im procrastinating school work so I will be here hahah



ETA:

thats great that you are getting back in the game. Its an amazing game. Ive taken a couple months off

Was one of the only Nike irons that I could use well. I will get another one as I do not want to break up that set, just in case.

Need to get fitted for this or just pick one up online?

I understand that they are different, but thats it really. Just not sure which people prefer or for what applications.
