    Random New Handicap

    Yes I gave the new club all the details of previous club and handicap. The issue they had was something like the the old club were not registered with congu although they worked out the handicaps correctly using a approved method.

    Best non-spinny golf ball

    Best low spin ball which feel reasonable I have found is the Bridgestone 'Fix' ball, very good ball and use exclusively now.

    irons

    Nothing wrong with X16 callaways, I have a set of pro version and sometimes go back to them when my swing is off as they are much more forgiving than most current sets. Both versions scored very high on the Maltby MPF ratings http://www.golfworks.com/images/art/2011MPFRatingsChart.pdf

    Any recommendations for a new stand bag?

    Can vouch for the Clutch, just bought this and I like it, something to note is they make a 7 divider type that didn't get good reviews for the layout but the 6 divider is good. http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00UC2LT9M/ref=pe_385721_37986871_TE_item
