I am playing in one of these at my local course tomorrow. I was thinking of taking my 18* hybrid, 6 or 7 iron, 54* wedge and putter.
Does this seem like a good choice? Which clubs would you take?

I've played this, except we run the course and your score is a mix between how many shots you take and your run time. I took driver (choke up if you have to), 6 iron (maybe 5i), 56*, and putter. It was a good time.

Ben Hogan is my swing coach.

I go driver, 6 iron, 56˚ and putter.

Short par 4s are driver, 56˚. Long par 4s are Driver, 6 iron. Par 5s are Driver, 6 iron, 56˚. Par 3s are the toughest, either a 6 or a hard de-lofted 56˚.

driver: FT-i tlcg 9.5˚ (Matrix Ozik XCONN Stiff)
4 wood: G10 (ProLaunch Red FW stiff)
3 -PW: :Titleist: 695 mb (Rifle flighted 6.0)
wedges:, 52˚, 56˚, 60˚
putter: Studio Select Newport 1.5

driver, 6 iron, 56, putter i think would be the easiest - if i could hit my 3 wood reliably everytime, probably swap driver for that, though i don't use my 3 wood often so i don't know where exactly it would get to on each hole.
What I Play:

4 wood
7 or 8 iron depending on the course length, I can rip a 7 if I need to
sw or lw, depending on if the ground is soft or hard, or on the conditions of the rough

sounds like a good time

Completely dependent on the course.

I'd sit down with a scorecard and figure out how to best play each hole with just four clubs, then select the four that best fit my needs. Putter will always be one......you hit it more than any other club and need it at least once on every hole.

The other 3 would prob be something like a 3 wood, 6 iron, gap wedge......but that's just a guess at this point.

Those things are fun. You'll have a great time having to hit various shots with different clubs too.

In David's bag....

1) any wood you can hit off the fairway, Driver, 3 wood, 5 wood or 7 wood.

2) mid iron 6 or 7 iron

3) wedge 52 - 56 degree

4) putter

a) double check the club and distances in your mind playing each hole of the course your going to play.

b) practice take distance off each club by choking up or opening the club face and aiming left or 3/4 swing, what ever works best for you.

c) practice putting off the green, sometime it helps to add loft to the putter when putting off the green to help the ball skip over the grass. practice chipping will all your clubs including the wood and see what gives you the best results.

have fun and you will appreciate your 14 clubs next time you go out, and your creativity will improve.

Like David said, it can change depending on the course, but this is the general range I'd take on most par 72 courses.

3W, 5H, 8I, 54° wedge. I can putt with either the 3W or the 5H. Practice a bit and you'll find that you really limit yourself by taking the putter. You will do better with 4 clubs that can be used in different ways... the putter is only good for one thing... putting.

    • You might want to try a can of Bar Keepers Friend. Yes, it is abrasive, so just wet a sponge and dab it on. It has oxalic acid (no bleach like "Comet" kitchen cleanser), and it works wonders on stainless steel and other metals. Try it on a small area first to see what happens.
    • Fair   My uneducated thought: the big miss is the penalty area. If you want to optimize score, missing into the bunker (likely 5) is better than missing right into the penalty (possible 6). With that, your strategy seems sound and if you hit a committed shot, you get a bunker 5% of the time, take your medicine and hopefully get a putt for par but accept bogey. You may find yourself in a penalty situation 2-3% of the time and accept the associated outcome. The vast majority of the time though you are giving yourself a good approach shot into the green. 
    • I walk 30 mins a day on my lunch break. It is not very intense (since i dont want to get sweaty in my work clothes), so just a touch above leisurely. 3 days a week I walk on the treadmill for 60 mins. I alternate the incline from 4 to 10 for a couple minutes, once every ten minutes. I lift my kettlebells nearly everyday. I have a couple complex routines. I find just 15 minutes and my heart rates is elevated
