The Premium Intermediate Golf Upgrade Kit

Serious gear for golfers breaking 90.

Estimated cost: $600–$800Items: 3Updated May 2026

You've been playing for a year or two, you're breaking 90 (or getting close), and you know the difference between a 7-iron and a gap wedge. This kit is designed to close the gap between 'decent golfer' and 'consistently good golfer.' That means a fitted iron set, a premium putter (where strokes are really lost or saved), and a proper stand bag that keeps you organized and comfortable over 18 holes.

The TaylorMade SIM2 Max irons are game-improvement clubs with a sleek look that won't embarrass you at a country club. The Odyssey White Hot OG putter is the best-reviewed putter under $200, and a proper putter is the highest ROI purchase a developing golfer can make.
