Appologies for the late reply, this post was lost in the masses. Let me address your concerns anyway.
For someone who is looking purely for distance I would recommend graphite shafted
irons, woods and light weight heads (preferrably titanium), but distance is not everything, so you must compromise and find the correct balance between finding the distance and the accuracy.
As far as putters go. there are so many different makes and models of putters, and putting is such an individual aspect of the game it would be silly for me to name one putter over all the rest. My advice to you, is to try out as many differnet types as you can, your local pro will generally allow you to do this. One tip when finding a putter - I find it usefull when a putter has some kind of alignment aid (a white line or something of the like on the back of the putteroften helps).
