Old golf clubs, Do I need to update to new ones?

[MagdaS]

I have quite old golf clubs, whats your opinion, is it time for new ones?

 

12 years ago I was playing around 4 to 5 times a week and golf was just about all I did. Life has changed a bit. Unfortunately I dont get to play as much. But the love for this game has always remained!

My Driver, woods and irons are very much dated. I absolutely love the feel of my irons. 
Have technology advanced so much that I need to Update my Driver, woods and Irons?

Over the 12 years,  clubs have improved from a design perspective and there are now more classifications of irons.   That doesn't mean you need to update your clubs.   If you are happy with what you have then no reason to change.  

I'll ask you what you would hope to accomplish or what you think new clubs would do for your game?

I have those same irons and have no intention of getting rid of them.  I hit them well and still get good distance with them.

Just not playing as much and getting older. So a few things get sacrificed. 
 

But I am still very happy with my Irons. I have tried my brother Taylormade Stealth driver and was very straight and 20m further which was a big surprise.
 

Was just wondering if it really worth it.

Distance gain isn't much of a surprise.   determining if it is worth it is a questions only you can answer.

I played my Ping Eye2 irons for almost 30 years, maybe more, before finally getting new irons in 2022. I had to ask the same question for about 10 years before I finally decided it was worth it to modernize. I was still shooting scores in the high 70s/low 80s but I knew I could do better. 18 months later and I would say my overall game improvement is due in part to modern clubs. Can’t say for sure how much is because of the clubs but I definitely have no regrets.
