So ive been researching for about a week now - my old set of clubs is 10 years old -
Im 33 years old - play about once or twice a month.
5'8" - 180 lbs - male
semi-athletic
My old clubs are the burner bubbles - and stiff steel irons. tour. (mistake i know) i top and slice alot and dont get off the tee very well.
I usually shoot around 110-125 - short game is good - driving is terrible, usually dont hit 3-4 irons.
So im looking at some game improvement clubs. Ive always liked taylor made clubs so will be sticking with them.
DRIVERS
r7 CGB Max driver vs R9 460 driver
leaning the 10.5 degree r9 460 driver...
FAIRWAY WOODS
r9 fairway woods - 3 and 5 wood
HYBRID
i have a burner rescue 3 hybrid now at 19 degrees.
probably add a 4 hybrid at 22 degrees
IRONS
burner superlaunch
2009 r7 cgb max
burner plus irons
r9 irons
Tough one here... Ive tried to find what the difference between all the burner series are - and whether or not i need the r7 CGB max irons from 2009 that look like they offer the most forgiveness.
I top and slice often - so would like a little oversize iron with help getting airborne.
The burner superlaunch series seems like they are for older people? from what ive read - probably not the best fit for me.
probably wont use the r9's they seem liek they are for lower handicappers.
any ideas?
WEDGES
probably pick up a cleveland cg series gap wedge to fill int he gap between PW and SW. maybe a 50 and a 60 degree.
so most of my decisions have been foocused on narrowing the subtle differences of irons -
i like the idea of maximum forgiveness that both the burner superlaunch and r7 cgb max irons offer. Question is whether that is too much forgiveness - or if i would be better suited with teh r9's?
thanks all for the help.
