Great gear doesn’t need to be brand-new. Many of the best-performing golf clubs from 2024 are now available at lower prices, making this a smart time to upgrade without overspending.
We pulled data from MyGolfSpy’s Most Wanted testing to highlight which category winners have dropped in price, which ones are still holding strong and where you can get the most value for your money.
Drivers
Some of the top-ranked models from 2024 are finally getting price cuts. If you’re shopping for a driver that earned high marks in MyGolfSpy’s testing for accuracy, forgiveness or raw distance, these are the ones to watch. Below are the 2024 winners with the biggest price drops.

Fairway woods
Fairway woods aren’t as expensive as drivers but the problem is that your golf bag probably needs more than one. Now is a good time to grab some of the 2024 standouts like the Paradym Ai Smoke Triple Diamond or TaylorMade Qi10 Max. The Wilson Dynapower fairway wood didn’t win a category but it was the runner-up and just dropped from $249 to $199.

If you’re building a new set in 2025, irons are one of the best categories to target for savings. Several of the top-performing iron sets from 2024 iron testing have dropped in price, especially in the game-improvement and super game-improvement categories.

Wedges
If you’re hoping to score a deal on the best wedges of 2024, you may have to wait a little longer. The PING s159, our Best Wedge for 2024, is holding steady at $179. The same goes for the Titleist Vokey SM10, 2024’s most accurate wedge, at $189.
There are two standout runner-up wedges worth considering if you’re shopping with value in mind.
- TaylorMade Milled Grind 4 – A runner-up for overall performance and consistency, the MG4 has dropped from $179 to $149, making it one of the best deals for golfers who want a premium, tour-style wedge without paying full retail.
- Cleveland RTX Full Face – This wedge came in just behind the spin leader and is available for as low as $99, down from its original $179 MSRP.
Putters
Unlike drivers and irons, putters typically hold their value longer. Top performers like the Bettinardi INOVAI 6.0, Evnroll Neo Classic ER2 and Wilson Staff Model CS22 are still priced close to original retail. A few blade putters that ranked near the top in 2024 test have finally started to drop in price.

The PING G430 Max 10K has been a true unicorn for me. I’m giving up a touch of distance for a lot more fairways found and the ball is in play on virtually every hole.
