How often do you get new clubs?

I think drivers are good for about 4-5 years and irons 6-8 years. Iron technology doesn't change as much as with drivers.

Driver it kind of depends. When something comes out that's a lot better I try to scoop one up if I can. Would have liked to get the Epic, but I bought an M2 just last year.

Irons, use 'em until they are just worn out. Some of the best players I know use 20 year old irons, some use the brand new stuff. Irons don't really change.

I played with a set of King Cobra irons with graphite shafts for 20 years. Only quit when I broke my 7 iron and got some Taylor made 3 years ago.

Those irons lasted a few thousand rounds.

Drivers are a different story. About every 5 years or so for them.

I am on year 4 of my current irons - hate em

My previous irons were over 10 years old - miss them

How often should you replace irons and driver on average?

I'm still on my first set of irons that aren't truly "starters". Just 2 years though. I'm on my second driver. Bought one early on without really understanding what exactly I needed. Got an Epic this year.

Just bought the new Ping G irons a few months ago. I previously had a set of Ping ISI irons. So, every 20yr or so.

Driver, every 3yr.
Fairway, every 5yr.

I get a new driver every two or three years but always ended up putting the old Taylormade R9 back in the bag. Only had two sets of iron since I started playing golf and have yet to notice a wear pattern on the face. Wedges seem to wear the fastest. New addition this year was DJs spider putter.
