I know everyone has their "favorite iron"....You know...the one you hit perfect every time! Is it a "head thing" though? I believe it may be.....We all have one club that we have solid confidence in.....which usually leads to a well struck ball! It is when we are questioning a club, that we tend to duff it!

I love my 4 iron! (never fails)

You??

Is this discounting the wedges? I would have to say my 8 iron, however the club im most comfortable with in my hand would be my gap wedge from the fairway.

Probably my 8 iron although I like all of them from 6 iron down really. When I am hitting balls I always hit loads of 8 irons but the main reason I chose my 8 iron is because when I was a kid we used to go out on the course once a week or so and play 9 holes with just one club and for whatever reason I always took my 8 iron and learned to play all sorts of shots with it. Knock downs, cut up pitch shots, bunker shots, chip and run, you name it I was good at it with my 8 iron.

Ever since I have been a bit partial to it even though my current 8 iron is probably the 20 or 30th one I've owned :)

I guess it depends on where I am hitting from. From the teebox, I usually like my 4 iron - then 8 and then probably my 52 degree gap from the fairway.

If I had to just pick one, it would be my 52 degree... that is what I usually practice with the most.

My new irons are going to be here Monday though, so I may have a different answer next week.

Gotta be my 8 iron. It's the club I'm most comfortable at adress with. Lot of players favour their eight iron it seems? Maybe it's just the right length to be comfortable with?

got to be a toos up between my 8 iron and my SW. From 90 yards and in witht he SW I expect to be looking at no more than 10ft left. From 150 - 160 my 8 iron is a killer.

Seven wood, I can hit it high, I can chip with it, hit it out of the rough, hit it $180from the fairway, 185 from the tee. It was a tough decision because I like my seven iron, four hybrid, and my lob wedge also. Really the only club I don't like is my four wood it definitely is on probation.

I'm suprised nobody has said this yet - I love my putter, as it saves me more than any other club.
If I had to pick a full-swing club, I'd say 3-wood. It puts me in the fairway almost every time.

I think I'm most comfortable with my 8-Iron, even though I love the versatility of my 5-Iron. I'm not at the stage where I can hit trick shots yet, but I seem to be able to hit my 5-Iron higher or lower than a usual swing when the need arises, with corresponding losses in distance.

The 8-Iron is just the one I hit "right" the most.

Still, if I'm going to lay up, it's going to be a 70-75 yard Gap Wedge shot.

Driver:  Titleist 915D2.  4-wood:  Titleist 917F2.  Titleist TS2 19 degree hybrid.  Another hybrid in here too.  Irons 5-U, Ping G400.  Wedges negotiable (currently 54 degree Cleveland, 58 degree Titleist) Edel putter.

Either 7,8, or 9. I guess if I had to choose one it would be the 8 just like everyone else.
