How often do you upgrade your equipment?


Recommended Posts

Driver maybe every few years. Haven't replaced my irons in five years. Really need new ones. I've had my hybrid and 3 wood for about two years. Wedges every other year. I have six or seven putters that I rotate whenever I start putting poorly (which is every other round). I have a knack for getting free putters. I have paid a grand total of $45 for all my putters, which include a SC, Bettinardi, PING, TM, Nike, and a Cleveland (courtesy of MGS).

I've upgraded too often to count, to my own detriment. I'd say driver every season, and irons every 2 seasons or so. 

 

Wedges and putter have been pretty constant though, as has my 3W. And you'll never get my HeavenWood out of the bag, ever!

I was out of the game for about 5 years until last Summer (2017).  At that point I got the lead out of my butt and took a hard look at my bag.  Not bad clubs, but everything 10+ years old.

 

Gave 'em all to my son and started over Aug 2017.

 

Technology had come such a long way.  Going to be Driver Shopping every 3-4 years I think, Irons no more than 5, wedges maybe 2 years, depends on how much I play (my wedges get a ton of work, I miss a LOT of greens!), and I don't change putters unless they break, so my new Odyssey will be with me a looooong time I suspect.

I am currently going through my bag upgrading my setup. Like a lot of you I found that my stuff was outdated or the wrong fit. I had taken some time off and was not playing regular. Since I have started playing weekly I noticed that I could really benefit from some new technology.  Recently got fit and ordered a new set of irons. Went with the TaylorMade M4's. Just waiting on the UPS guy!

Very seldom; unless I see a club that looks, feels, and performs good to my swing.

Isn't replacement dictated by the amount of practice and play except for those that just like new stuff.

This year was a total revamp. New irons, driver, 3w and wedges. I'm contemplating going further and adding a Sigma G Tyne H and a G 2h because, well, because.
