These will run you 150-200 dollars

For woods, look at some that are a couple of generations old, as the increase in technology in drivers plateaued in about 2005-06. Any model designed thereafter is going to offer you the same type of benefits.

Taylor Made's Burner Series are cheaper and easier to find use, and Callaway's BB Series (not the FT) will be easy to find at a reasonable price.

I'd shy away from Titleist (too hard to hit), even though the second hand market is flooded.

Your wedges will also be very important, but what is best for you depends on the kind of course you play. Given that you are a high handicapper, you'll want a SW with a lot of bounce for bunker shots, but that same wedge will be very hard for you to hit from the fairway without blading it. Turf conditions of the course also play a big factor into your decisions.

Putters are personal preference. A lot of people still swear by the Odyssey Two Ball Series or the Ping Anser and its related clone designs.
I'm looking on Pinggolf.com, and kind find anything about the different colors of Eye2s. I'm looking at some used ones now, and don't know what the colors are about.
