There&#8217;s no law that says the clubs must be comprised of a 1, 3, and 5-wood, 3I-SW, and a putter. First of all, that&#8217;s only thirteen clubs. Second of all: choose a set that best fits you!<\/p>\n<p>In choosing a set, you want to consider a few things. First, you need a putter. You&#8217;re down to 13 clubs. Are you good? Consider going with four wedges. Just starting out? Consider going with the stock two or three. Not very strong off the tee? Why carry a driver or a 3I?<\/p>\n<p>Consider alternative clubs. If you have trouble hitting a 3I, or want a club with more loft, look into one of the utility clubs now available. With players like Vijay Singh carrying high-lofted &#8220;woods&#8221; these days, that 9-wood in your bag can&#8217;t even take down your macho level!<\/p>\n<p>We could get into much more depth than this (and we may in coming days), but today&#8217;s tip is simple: take a look at your set makeup and see where you might make some changes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today&#8217;s tip is simple: take a look at your set makeup and see where you might make some changes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":25,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[11],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-329","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-playing_tips"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Set Makeup (Playing Tips) - The Sand Trap .com<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/thesandtrap.com\/b\/playing_tips\/set_makeup\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:title\" content=\"Set Makeup (Playing Tips) - The Sand Trap .com\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:description\" content=\"Today&#039;s tip is simple: take a look at your set makeup and see where you might make some changes.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:creator\" content=\"@the_sand_trap\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@the_sand_trap\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Erik J.
