Well this year I've spent a ton and had a blast doing it.

New set of Ping G5 irons = $700
New Launcher Comp = $300
New Ping G5 driver = $300
Used Tour Edge Exotics driver = $175
Shafts for some of these = $300
New Ping Rapture driver = $450
New Odyssey putter = $170
New Mizuno wedge = $62
New Datrek bag = $139
New hybrids = $260
Total = $2,856

I got some of that back selling stuff but don't know what

Geez, I'm scaring myself. Luckily this was all cash and didn't show on any credit card

I'm happy that ST raises your spirits.

I have spent about 500.00 on clubs in the last year, pretty much just trying different types. I can say that I'm narrowing it down.

WBL how did you like the TEE?

I LOVED the club except I found (after playing on a launch monitor) I needed a low loft for my swing (or I balloon it) and that was 10.5º. Only reason I didn't keep it. I also never found the shaft I really liked in it. Now I have some more positive ideas on what shaft I'd put in it, like a NVS 65 or Evolution. I bought an Evo Lite for it and really needed the regular Evo.

I've been good this year. A new driver and an additional hybrid and that's it. Under $300.00 for the year.

That can only mean bad things for next year.

It's been a big help for me over the last year. Back at home at 29 lots of spare time so being a member on here, making new friends & keeping me entertained has been great for me.

My Titleist irons are ten years old.

Two years ago, I bought my Sonartec 14* and 19*

A year ago I bought my TaylorMade 22* Rescue Mid.

Six months ago, I bought my Two-Ball putter and my TM r425 driver with the Pro-Launch Blue shaft.

Total amount spent in the past ten years is approximately $700.

That's pretty tight.

That's where I see myself. I think I found my happy place with my current set. But I always feel the need to upgrade drivers.
