Actually it's exactly the people it helps. The cavity back irons greatly improve the size of the sweet spots in the clubs. Same with the new drivers, the shorter inconsistant hitter benefits more from the newer tech than the longer hitter who hits it in the middle all the time.

You some kind of sales rep? [rofl]

Meh, if you suck at hitting a golf ball, then you suck at hitting it. :P

Even the cheapest of clubs now days have large sweet spots, big drive heads and cavity backs. The advantage from more expensive clubs diminishes all the time. These technology's pretty much benefit the amateur and so they are already built into cheap amateur clubs. But you're kind of right in saying that this technology largely benefits the amateur than the pro.

The pros typically don't use cavity irons or carbon driver club shafts. Blade irons have a better centre of gravity, more weight, and have to be hit more accurate. It allows the pro player to tailor their shot more.
The drivers they use are steel rods. So they are heavier, longer, and the drive shaft is so stiff that the power goes straight to the ball. That's why they can hit 300+ yards. Give an amateur a steel shaft driver and the ball will go everywhere but its intended direction.
