    if you are shooting high 70s to low 80s but you want to shoot more consistent scores you would be absolutely mad to buy new clubs without getting fitted

    I guess it would be just like any golf bag I suppose. Just all depends what you want out of it really.

    You won't have any issues with the bag, I've had mine for about 5-6 years (just a syntheitic maxfli bag) and it still looks brand new. As long as you use a pull buggy/cart it'll be fine. Maybe a plastic cover if you play in the rain a bit but apart from that you'll be fine.

    Would i want steel shafts or graphite shafts?

    Graphite shafts are so much more expensive, but i do like the extra bit of flex and "whip" they have compared to steel shafts.

    Also what are some cheap sites to get good quality clubs, still looking at a set, my game is getting a lot better playing 5 shit clubs including putter and driver.

    A male with a reasonably quick swing speed should always go steel shafts I've been told from pro's, the guys at ray drummond, etc. Graphite shafts are basically for women or old men who struggle to generate enough swing speed themselves, hence needing that little bit of extra "whip".

    Make sure you get yourself fitted for your new clubs correctly, then you can go looking online. My brother recently bought a couple of wedges and a 5 wood from http://www.rockbottomgolf.com/discount-golf-clubs.html and they look fine/showed up on time.

    Nice Set
    Tried those clubs. The G20 Irons are great. Anybody can use them heard of Pro's on the tour using them and people new to the game. The Cleveland CG15 wedges are great and cheap.

    When you hear of pros playing this and that and you go into a shop and buy the 'same clubs' it's not the case.

    pros play with customized clubs that are not really anything like the ones you buy from a golf store.
    Not a fan of Callaway at all, but G20's are okay for the mid-high handicapper.

    Odessey make decent putters as well. Not a fan of the 2 ball putters, but i have a Oddesey Black Series and it does the job.
