Hi everyone, I'm new to this site. I've played about 30 rounds a year for the past 3 or 4 years and shoot around a 50 for 9 holes, so I'm a beginner and can't say I'm any good. I started out with a hodgepodge of clubs donated to me by various people, then two years ago I decided to buy a "real" set. I didn't really know what I was looking for, and I've come to realize now that the Wilson Firesticks with regular flex graphite shafts I came home with are pretty crappy and not helping my game at all. Now, I understand that new clubs aren't going to make me a dramatically better golfer, but for a healthy 25 year old with a decent swing speed, attempting to improve my game, I don't think they're doing me any favors. I tried a nice steel shafted club from a friend's set and discovered what "feel" actually means. I swing the Wilsons and in comparison, I have no idea where the club head is during my swing and when I mis-strike the ball, can't quite tell what I did wrong.
I also understand that actually demoing some clubs and talking to a professional would be the best way to figure out what's best for me, but I don't even know what to start looking at. Can anyone recommend some brands and models I should be looking at? I'd like them to last me a good 5 years, if not longer. I was initially interested in the Mizuno MX-25s, but saw some negative press on here about them. Thanks in advance!
