I went an bought a 3-pw set of Cleveland CG gold. after hitting them and a list of other clubs, including Nike,Ping,Titleist,Mizuno ect...

i was hitting the 6 iron cg gold where I wanted and was averaging around 165 yards with it.... I think I could have got father, but wanted to make sure I was getting a good feel for the club, not just trying to slam the ball down the range...

anyways I have a 56 degree wedge, a driver, and a putter, and a 3 wood..


what do you think i need to add to fill in any gaps?????

The driver,wedge,and 3 wood are older clubs I have had for years, and plan on changing them out soon, so any godo recommendations wouldbe appreciated.

thanks

I'd recommend getting a 52* wedge and either a 5 wood/2 iron (hybrid) or a 60 degree wedge.

I would for sure get the 52 gap wedge and choose from the other two by which one you need more. It's different for everyone.

I would leave it a while.The type of course your playing will be a major factor,it will be screaming at you to use a club you are not carrying,or maybe it wont it which case save your back and just use 13 clubs.

Hmm...I'd probably recommend that you get a 19 or 21 degree hybrid and possibly take out your 3 iron. I know that there are exceptions, but I've never met a 24 handicap who could really utilize a 3 iron. A gap wedge is also a very good suggestion. Depending on the loft of your PW, either a 50 or 52 would fit in quite nicely!

Agreed on the gap wedge. Also look into a 19 degree hybrid or my preference a 5 wood.

Your PW is 45*, so a 50* GW would be perfect. I would stay away from a 60* LW, unless you have time to practice or are very comfortable with high lofted wedges. I would hold off on your longer clubs until you replace your driver and fairway wood/woods.

best of luck with your new bag

I would recommend a 3 hybrid as well. The only reason I bought a 3 iron is for tight fairway holes off the tee. If I can't reach the green with my 4 iron in the fairway, I usually lay up. My next purchase will most likely be a 2 or 3 hybrid.

    • 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.
