Yesterday on the course, I realized that I have particular clubs that, when I hit a pure shot, it creates a sense of bliss unlike any other shot throughout the day. For me, whenever I hit my steel shafted Titleist fairway woods pure, it is an experience unlike any other. The noise, the feel, and the look of the ball flight are perfect. Do any of you have a club that just seems particularly special when you hit it right?

Every club that I strike "pure" is the most rewarding one. These feelings are getting a little more numerous, but are still too few and far between for my liking. Lately, my 5 & 7 irons have both produced the most rewards.

A long, straight, crisp shot off the 3-wood is tied with a long, accurate stick-in-near-the-pin with a long iron (for me = 5 or 6).

Probably the 4-iron for me since it is the one I don't hit great as often as I'd like to...that or my 4 wood. I expect to hit my short irons crisp and I've been driving quite well lately.

In my Datrek Rage bag:
Driver: Sumo 5000 w/ Aldila VS Proto Stiff
4-Wood: SasQuatch 2 w/ Diamana Stiff
Irons: AP2 4-PW w/ PX 6.0
Wedges: Zodia US Spec 52*, Yururi Gekku 57*, 588 DSG RTG+Putter: Scotty Cameron Studio Style 3.5 or Odyssey White Hot Tour #1Ball: ProV1 or whatever I find!

I have to second the putter. When the putter is working like it should, it has a ripple effect on the rest of my game. I'm sure most players would agree that if you're putting good, you're probably playing good too...

At least that's how I think it should be

That's how I like my golf. A kick in the face. -Ben

My 3 wood of the deck. Especially when you land it on the green after a poor tee shot, or for your second on a par 5. A pretty close second would be a one hop and stop sand wedge, right next to the hole...

Of course I love nailing a drive but the most satisfying shot for me is when I stick a pin, especially with a mid-long iron. Hearing a ball hit the bottom of the cup never gets old either.

However since you asked what club I find the most rewarding, I'd have to go with my driver. I love hitting wedges into long par 4's when everybody else is hitting a mid-long iron, I love hitting irons into par 5's on my second shot too. Hitting solid drives never gets old for me and it has a major ripple effect in my round as well. When I leave the tee box with a smile on my face I tend to hit my irons better too.

Any of my mid-irons hit flush deliever a great feel.


I also love the feel of a confident struck putt on a long double breaker. I love the click of the ball coming off the face and tracking it with my eyes...watching the logo roll over and over true....tracking on it's way.

It might be just me. But I love the feeling of when you have about a foot and a half for your par, and you strike it dead-center, and it hits the back and front of the cup a couple of times and settles at the bottom. Like I said, it's probably just me who likes this feeling.

    • I get kidney stones. So 100 oz of water every day. Some nights I drink 32oz between midnight and 6 Am. Which means I dont sleep much.
    • 46 (9 over) Short game and putts were awful!
    • 46+40 for an 86. I just need to play 9 holes on the range before each round. 🤣🤣🤣
    • I don’t measure my intake either. I generally have a black coffee, a bottle of soda, some sweet tea at home, and anything in between is water. An ice cold bottle of water is one of my favorite things. It feels like an immediate refresher for my body. I’ll admit that I need to drink a little more though. 
    • For such a nice membership, there have been some bad incidents in the past few years.  We had someone voted out a couple of years ago over something he did and he harassed the board members for three months until he moved out of the area.   Generally they’ve tried to do things like tournament handicaps and identify certain people who they know should be lower and adjust it somehow.  I can understand not wanting to go thru something like the guy who was voted out again i emailed the pro who forwarded it to the handicap committee.  They are going to see what can be done.  I walked someone thru what happened and they are going to nudge him to post the score from the match and see what he does.  Since he didn’t put anything in the electronic scoring past 13, based on how he played 14 and 15 plus having to take bogey on 16-18 for after he left, he should post 83.  We’ll see if it’s even higher,   Since he was really even thru 13, then doubled 14 and parred 15 my guess is he really shot 75 being generous and giving him 2 pars and a bogey on the three holes he didn’t play.    i shot 88, getting 16 shots for my course handicap which is net even and I lost on 13.  We do brackets where handicaps should be within 4-5 of each other.  Most matches only have 1-2 shots as a difference between players  neither of us posted the score yet.  There was something in the match play rules about whether or not to post your score.  I couldn’t remember if we were supposed to or not.  I don’t think he was going to post that, because even with his inflated score it would be the lowest score in his recent 20. Lucky I didn’t because they want to see what he does post and they don’t want me posting so he can try to calibrate his score.
