Go to Golf Town or Nevada Bob's and check your own swing.
If you buy Ping clubs, you need to be custom-fitted for them but otherwise, just take a whole bunch of diffferent clubs, get 'em taped up and try them. It's only by swinging a dozen times yourself will you really get a feel whether you prefer a stiff flex/normal flex, or graphite shafts/steel shafts.
I just recently purchased the whole set of Nike Sasquatch Sumo2's - Nevada Bob's didn't have the graphite shafts set on hand though, just one or two clubs. however, I liked the graphite a lot better (more feel for working the ball IMO) so they were able to order it for me. But if I hadn't tried them I wouldn't have known.
Also I bought square-faced drivers (the Sumo2s) as they help me square up the club (no pun intended) to the ball at impact and reduce any sidespin. It could be different for you though.
Also I have four hybrids in the bag - since you are a high handicap I would highly recommend them. The bigger sweet spot just allows you to make solid contact all the time whereas sometimes your low irons wouldn't. Go try some out.
