i've been thinking about this recently.

right now i carry a 4 iron and 54* wedge that just never come out of the bag. realistically my 3 wood doesn't get the headcover taken off all that much either. if i'm having a bad driver day, i'm better off with my hybrid off the tee.

does anyone else do this? do you create shots with less used clubs to make them handy?

I use all of my clubs. Some may not see action in a particular round, but usually they all see at least a shot or two.

i'm definitely in your boat. there's no reason i shouldn't be carrying a 4 hybrid, especially because there is a huge gap between my ~200 yard 3 hybrid and my ~170 yard 5 iron and i really have trouble laying back on the hybrid.

Every club in my bag is there because I know from experience that I'm going to use it.  Clubs which I didn't use (3I, 4I, LW) were replaced by clubs which are useful for me, or that I have more confidence in using.

I love my course because in almost every round I play I use every club at least twice.

I have clubs that don't get used often but I carry what I need as course conditions change. An example would be 4 hybrid. It's rare I need it for anything but recovering from a bad drive and one long par 3 at my home course but there really isn't anything that would be a better choice. Other courses I use it more because of the abundance of very long or very short par 4's. At those courses the middle of the bag sees less use.

When I carry the bag in my signature, I pretty much use every club, especially if I play 18 at my home course. Actually, that is how some of the clubs got in the bag-to play shots I needed on certain holes.

    • My two cents? Don't. As a beginner that's interested in learning about the golf swing, you'll find yourself consuming a lot of information, most of which isn't even relevant to your own swing. You need to learn you can't think your way to a good golf swing. Focus on the one thing that you're working on and doing that on every swing, come what may. And remember, mishits happen.
    • Day 6 (7 May 24) - More work in the backyard focused on tempo in addition to setup.  Worked with 6 and 7 irons hitting hard foam balls - used the old MacGregor irons to mix it up a little.   
    • No! lol. But they have to be in the right sequence to play mid-handicap golf or little better. Mostly. And even in that there is range/margin for error in the motions and positions that most normal humans can handle. It helps if you have a decent idea of how a golf club moves around the body like you would any other equipment sports (baseball and hockey might be the closest) After all, fairways are 40 yards wide. Don't overthink it. Be diligent in getting basics right. I will concede that it is harder than it sounds but it certainly is not exact angle/exact position/exact degree of bend/exact speed/exact facial expression, etc, every.... single.... time or the result is horrible death. 
    • Looking to play in the Severna Park Golf league and it got rained out the first three weeks. I know the course is being renovated so it is not in great shape but the location is easy for me and I would love to meet some other golfers in my area. Anyone here in Maryland Annapolis area? 
    • I like to look at the positives.  Overall you are fairly consistent down the center with most shots 20 yards or less off center.  On most fairways that should be in play.  Sure, you had some very short duds, but also if you look there is a good cluster in the 110-125 yard range.  Sure, we would all like to be longer, but knowing your typical shot is more important than trying to hit the 7-Iron 175 Yards.  Just take more club for longer shots and do not worry about it.  Your distances may increase as you improve over time so do not get caught up on that now.
