Several questions that need to be answered please.

Question
Hi, I am a 23 yr. old that has been playing golf since I was six. I have always had a couple of problems and never thought I was good enough to go pro or anything because of them. Yet, my friends who were on the golf team in high school (I wasn't because I was too busy working) say that I could be with work. Now a few years ago I got rid of my irons and picked up a set of Cobra SS-I irons with the graphite shafts. Everyone picked on me about them because they are so called old mens shafts, but honestly I seem to be striking them a lot better. Is it the club or the shaft, and should I go back to my old tru-temper shafts? Secondly, slicing is a problem with me sometimes. I used to play baseball and when I drive sometimes I tend to pull the club behind me and swing it like a bat creating a out to in motion making it slice. Now I can make heck of a contact with the swing, but it sometimes goes 2 fairways over. Is there a way to keep the swing and eliminate the slice. Or should I stick with my straight shot that i only get about 250 yards out of because I get around 300 somtimes plus with the other swing when it does go straighter? Now I want to talk about my bag order I use a driver, 3W, 5W, 1 iron, 4,5,6,7,8,9,PW,SW, Putter. Now I hardly use my 3 or 5 woods because A. I suck at hitting them in the fairways. B. I can usually knock out both with my 1 iron that I get about 225 yds. out of when it is teed up. Now do you think I should get rid of the woods and get a 3, LW, and maybe a gap or approach wedge? Or is there something I may be missing on hitting the drivers off the fairway? Thanks for the time and patience!
