When looking for 14 clubs does your putter count in the 14. I was looking at some peoples club selection trying to find help with my choice of 4 wedges over a 5w or 2i or 3i. and I am seeing some people with 14 + a putter. what I always knew was a putter is a club in the bag.

yes the putter does count towards the total

Yes the putter counts as a club.

Many people list clubs that are "in the bag" but they pull one or two based on the course they are playing or the course conditions for the day. And there are some that don't follow the 14 club rule. Although if I were a betting man, most golfers on this forum do follow the rule. On a whole, the members here do not represent the golfing population in general. And that is a compliment to the members. If you are a serious enough golfer to be on here digging for info and helping others out, you are probably playing to the 14 club rule. So my guess is most guys are just listing their options.

14 clubs is the limit....period....even though I knew a fella that didn't count his "chipper" club. Man, we used to groan when he pulled that thing out.....

The outside slot is an easy to access place to put it when playing. The regular slot is for transport when you are away from the course.

The rules of golf says 14 clubs is the max. They also define the putter as a club. So, there you go.

    • It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…
    • I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
