Over my dead body.

Which would be the first club(s) you save from a fire or cry like a baby if someone took from you? You can choose either your driver, fairway/hybrid, set of irons, wedge or putter. It can be for sentimental reasons or any reason you want...but you can only keep one of the five above. I know a set of irons is more than one club, but we're not Tin Cup who can par in with a 7-iron. It's a set.

For me, it would be my irons. They've been in my bag the longest and have been through quite a bit. Whenever I get another set of irons, they are staying with me. Also, I probably hit my irons more consistently than anything else in my bag and my game would suffer the most (in the short term) if I didn't have them...

I've got a soft spot for most of my clubs but really enjoy the wedges I've got in the bag. They are all Vokeys: Pitching wedge, 54, and 58 degree. I like their uniform look and they inspire confidence. I'm not nearly good enough with any of my clubs but I decided a while back that wedges will be my best friend and I'm working to make that a reality.

Gotta be the irons ... biggest investment and still on the honeymoon.

Nothing (other than short-term product testing) could move the Sonartec Md 21° hybrid out of my bag. No other hybrid I've hit comes close for distance, trajectory, forgiveness, feel, etc. It just looks "right" to me at address, and I can't imagine going back to a 7-wood at this point.

Also, the Md is the club I'd choose for a one-club tournament. 225 off the tee, easy to hit little punch shots of varying distances, and good for chipping and even putting from the fringe.

Great poll question!

Would have to be my driver. I'm loving the new Fuji Pro 95 shaft. Prior to the Fuji switch I might have thrown the driver into the fire! I'm ordering the new Nike pro combo tour irons next week, so when they get it it might by a toss up.

I have sort of a frankenstein club: a 15* titanium headed 3 wood stuck on the end of a Grafalloy Blue driver shaft. I wouldn't give that club up for gold.

It's basically my "second driver" for short/tight holes; thereby predating Mickelson by a good year-and-a-half. I rarely hit it from the fairway because it has a pretty deep face and doesn't really instill much confidence in me on a tight fairway lie, but from the teebox it's money.

Ditto on the investment part. The rest I could replace pretty easily. The irons would cost the most to replace.

Nearly everything I own is off the rack. I don't have a $3k Scotty Cameron custom putter or anything, you know?

Big surprise there.

Great poll question!

Thanks! Just came to me as I was daydreaming at work...

Started using a 19* hybrid and love it, so I found a 26* hybrid and I could play a round with them and a putter and do well.
I'll have to try that in the next few days and let you all know how it turns out.

My irons, Callaway X12's. I simply cannot find anything else that works as well as they do, for me. I don't Load them into my car, I lovingly wrap my car around my irons

My Cleveland 588 Lob Wedge. I've got two of 'em, I bought a new one about 7 years ago because my first was well worn. My first is still in the bag. I customed it with a plug for an added inch, as well as lead tape on the back for weight. The whole center hitting area of this thing is a rusted ball .. not a single bit of white paint left in the grooves, or any stampings.

And I still use it for most every shot around the green. :)

Same here Jeff, except my two Vokey wedges are the 52 degree and 56 degree. Those two clubs have shaved more strokes off my game than any of my other clubs in the bag. My favorite shot is from 115 yards out with my 52 degree wedge. And I use my 56 degree around the greens. I love em!

[neudi]

irons for sure

[ragontona]

My old Steelhead 5-wood. My comfort club. When all else fails, I have that lil' guy to fall back on.

For me, you would have to pry my Vokey 56.14 Spin Mill wedge, with NS Pro 100 shaft, ordered 1/4" short, from my cold grey hands.
