I'm playing with my bag at the moment, so it's not what my sig says.  It currently go's driver (11°), 4 wood (16°), 4 hybrid (21°), then 4 iron (24°).  I'll probably try driver, 3W, 5W, then 4 iron (or 5 hybrid, they are the same loft) too.

I just built a 25* Tour Edge XCG5 with an Accra XH 85g Xstiff to add to my 3 and 4 hybrids.  I just don't hit irons well, and a 5iron was iffy at best.  Played the 25* twice now, resulting in two GIR with shots 195-205yds....something that would be a miracle with the 5i.  It leaves a bit of a hole down to my 6i, but it's not a distance I play often and I think I can learn to choke up on the 5h.

I am a bit apprehensive to make the switch until I see how it plays out of sand and punch outs, the 5i was my "go to" club out of fairway bunkers, basically would use it to hit a little punch shot that I could hit 130-150yds.

Two -- both with custom Accra shafts and old heads -- see signature. Use both often off tee on short 4's and long 3's, as a layup club on long par 5's and the "go for it" club on reachable 5's. By choking up or not, I can use these clubs for 175-225 yards.

I use one, a 20* PING Rapture V2 with a Graphite Design YS Q 85 stiff.  New ones I'm looking at are either the Anser hybrid or Titleist 913

Just 1.  I carry a Tourstage ViQ 3U (19* hybrid).  I still prefer the look of long irons over hybrids but a 4-iron is the longest iron that I feel comfortable with.  I can still hit a 3-iron or even a 2-iron fairly well off of a tee but off of the deck you can forget about it and thats where the hybrid comes into play.

Whats in my :sunmountain: C-130 cart bag?

Check my signature, I use Callaway's Razr HL 3 & 4 Hybrids, no 3- 4 irons. Dropped the 4 from the set I recently bought, and never want a 3 again, since I hit a hybrid off the box. Irons in my opinion are equally as good from the fairway though.

3 Wood:  -  913 Fd  15°

HYBRID:- :ping: -  G25 3H 20°

WEDGES - - Vokeys SM4 - 52°-GW, 56°-SW, 60°-Lob

BALLS:  :bridgestone: B330-RX

PUTTER: -  - Scotty Cameron Newport 2.0

    • Hit my tee shot just into the penalty area and barely found it. Swung hard just in case I hit it. It was slightly downhill with a heavy tailwind. I don't actually hit my 9i 170 yards.
    • Right. The difference between being 120 out and 70 out for me (this is the important part) is negligible and not worth putting other risks into play off the tee.   Ok the argument against driver is that my shot cone is comically large. It puts every possible outcome into play. You can't see the green from the tee so there's a good chance I'd have to wait for it to clear which would slow down play. That's the third tee right in the middle of the firing range there. I really don't want to wait just to hit a terrible shot and I especially don't want to injure somebody. Yea I have no problem playing out of the rough short of the bunker if I'm just going to lay up short of the bunker, but I absolutely need to avoid flaring it right into the penalty area if I'm going to be laying up in the first place. As a general strategy I understand where you're coming from. But since we're specifically talking about me (this is a shot I'm going to have to hit on Saturday), I think the cost is fairly marginal. I hit the ball 8' closer on average from 50-100 than I do from 100-150 from the fairway and rough and the green success % difference is 4%. Bunker might as well be a penalty drop. Based on the data,  Here's my SG:A data compared to a 10: I honestly don't know how to use SG for decision making. That's why I was mostly looking at proximity to hole and green success rate for comparison. I mostly use SG as a way to track my progress. All good. Like I said, I appreciate the discussion. It makes me think. If I didn't want to see alternative/opposing viewpoints to my own I just wouldn't post anything. You should post it! In your own swing thread, of course. It's been a fun exercise.
    • Played my first 2024 round at Pierce Lake. Boomed my first drive down #10 fairway, then slowly slipped into mediocrity. 83 (69.6/131). The high point was going 2 of 4 on sand saves. My sand game is pretty marginal but today I must have discovered the secret for a couple hours.
    • day 34. Technique practice. Became too quick and outcome oriented. need to slow down and work on technique again. 
    • Day 534, April 18, 2024 Practice before lessons today. Priority piece. No sim this time. 🙂
