How much do you use each club in your bag? I'll start:

Putter <- Most frequently used
58° LW
Driver
54° SW
4-hybrid
7i
GW, PW, 9i, 8i <- Use these four about equally often
6i
5w <- I rarely use these last 3, and when I do I probably shouldn't have
5i
3w

I don't actually track stats on these, this is just my estimate. Just curious if it lines up very closely with others.

Probably something like:
putter [every hole]
52 degree wedge [almost every hole]
driver [most full tee shots]
4I [many approaches, a few tee shots]
9I
PW
[everything else]

It's sort of a toss-up between the driver and the 4-iron. On most courses, the driver for sure, but on my home course I have found I am better off teeing off with my 4-iron on a few of the par-4s since they're short--290 to 330 yards from the longest tees--so I leave myself a nice short iron approach. Other irons are on an as-needed basis. I tend to gravitate to the 7 iron, but it really doesn't come up that often during my usual rounds. There just aren't many 140-150 yard shots on that course.

In the bag:
FT-iQ 10° driver, FT 21° neutral 3H
T-Zoid Forged 15° 3W, MX-23 4-PW
Harmonized 52° GW, Tom Watson 56° SW, X-Forged Vintage 60° LW
White Hot XG #1 Putter, 33"

Putter every hole (obviously), 60* LW almost every hole depending on lie and necessary run, 6-7i. Everything else is fitted in as needed. Driver, 3W, 4i from tee about 50, 30, 20 depending on the day and the hole.

1) Putter
2) Sand Wedge (normal chipping on fast greens - home course running at 11)
3) Driver - PW (long chips as well as full shots from 100 - 110 yards) - 25° hybrid (trouble shots and anything from about 180-190)

All the rest

Typical hole for me goes something like this from tee to green: Driver, 7I, one of four wedges, putter. Other irons I use but not as often are 6, 8, and 9. I rarely hit my 5 and have never even pulled the 3I or 4I out of my bag on the course. So to answer your question I probably hit my 7I, or a wedge most often.

putter: every hole
60*: maybe once or twice a round
56*: most wedge or chip shots
PW-6i: Most approach shots for me
5i-4i: not too often used...tee off on long par 3's and long approach shots
5w: par 5 approach shots or tee off on short par 4's.
3w: I tee off with 3 wood quite often on narrow par 4's that are less than 400 yards. Appraoch shots are par 5's to get it on the green.
driver: Tee off on most holes with driver unless the fariway is narrow or if there is a strong dogleg that looks difficult to hit.

Putter - Every hole, obviously
52* - Basically every hole, I've kept stats on what club I approach the green with on my last 3 games, and about 90% of the time it's my 52*
5i - I'm a short hitter so I pull it on most par-4s, all par5s, and I usually tee off with it on par-3s.
Driver - Every non par-3 hole, so about 14 holes
7i, 9i
PW
60* - Only for special shots that need to get high and/or not roll, usually once or twice a round.
SW - Prefer my GW and LW when not in the sand, and I rarely find the sand, so this almost never gets pulled

Just got new hybrids, so I'll see if I can replace some of my 5i with my hybrids.
