a lot larger. The weighting makes it easier to get the ball up into the air and the better clubs have frequency matched shafts. While all of these things "can" make a difference they will not turn a mid to high(15+ approx.)handicapper into a better golfer. A club/ball that help hit it further are nice if you're hitting in the short grass beforehand. Otherwise you're just 10/15 yds deeper in the wrong area(woods/rough/water).

Actually shortening the swing and swinging easier will improve a poor swing technique better than almost anything. Naturally that includes a lot of practice/time with a good teaching pro and hours chipping/putting and sand play.
