Thanks Mike couldn't find this thread... 8-iron.. I learned to play golf with an 8-iron... it's my go to club for everything when I'm having a bad round... hell I've had rough days where I'd hit 3 8-irons into par-5s

Callaway Big Bertha V Series driver. Not because I'm good with it, but I just WANT to use it! Love the feel and sound. I guess the lightness just suits me... I really should spend more time on my irons! :-)

BioCell 22.5 degree hybrid. I'm pretty accurate with it, and can hit it a long way. Right next to it is my SeeMore putter. Guys at the range rib me about it - "It's cheating. Where's the challenge? Hide the red dot and putt.

LW.  Vokey raw 260.08, but now switching back & forth with Eye2 61*.

I love being creative around the greens with it, and not afraid to take full swings (even though most don't recommend it).

2nd choice is my TM X-300 FCI 8-iron - hit my only hole-in-one with it...  enuf said.

Right now it is my Nickent 3DX Utility DC 19* 5 Hybrid.

I can easily hit it between 185-200yds off the tee which has really helped me score on my home course which has 3 par threes that usually range from 190 to 210 yds with small greens.  It is a huge step up from the 4 iron that I was using before and it goes 10 yds further.

The only thing is that it almost plays like a different club when I hit it off the ground.  It goes lower and maybe 10 yds farther off the deck than off the tee.  This is probably due to the very shallow face and low center of gravity.

My 3 iron, always seem you make great shots with it wether I'm in the fairway or hacking out the rough. Inside 100 yards I'll use it to run it up on the green.

How is that super stroke grip on the putter? I've seen them, it looks good, but I've never hit one.

Thats the mid slim 2.0 on a seemore mallet. Its a good size for me. I didnt realize they had so many custom sizes. I just dont like weird wrist position and that one fit well. Both hands on a similiar size parallel grip seems reasonable too for consistency.

I love my 5W. There was a period of about a month and a half where I couldn’t hit my driver to save my life, and I was hitting 3W and 5W off the tee. I came to trust my 5W off the tee, so if my driver and even my 3W are going haywire off the tee, I can hit the 5W with confidence that I’ll find the fairway.

Ball retriever gives a lot of Joy. Beside that always enjoy hitting my 3wood. Hybrid is also quite fun. You are always curious where the ball will go with these but most often they are fine.

Personally, I don't think there is any club more fun to hit than driver. In fact, it is so fun to hit, I often disregard LSW principals for a chance to Phil Mickelson a drive.

I don't drive the ball that far anymore, maybe carry 200 to 210, so my 3 wood is my go to club off the deck on par fours and fives. I have an old Cobra that I will never get rid of, I just hope it doesn't break.

    • I've played Bali Hai, Bear's Best and Painted Desert. I enjoyed Bali Hai the most--course was in great shape, friendly staff and got paired in a great group. Bear's Best greens were very fast, didn't hold the ball well (I normally have enough spin to stop the ball after 1-2 hops).  The sand was different on many holes. Some were even dark sand (recreation of holes from Hawaii). Unfortunately I was single and paired with a local "member" who only played the front 9.  We were stuck behind a slow 4-some who wouldn't let me through even when the local left. Painted Desert was decent, just a bit far from the Strip where we were staying.
    • Wordle 1,035 3/6 ⬜🟨🟨🟩⬜ 🟨🟨🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 Just lipped out that Eagle putt, easy tab-in Birdie
    • Day 106 - Worked on chipping/pitching. Focus was feeling the club fall to the ground as my body rotated through. 
    • Honestly, unless there's something about that rough there that makes it abnormally penal or a lost ball likely, this might be the play. I don't know how the mystrategy cone works, but per LSW, you don't use every shot for your shot zones. In that scatter plot, you have no balls in the bunker, and 1 in the penalty area. The median outcome seems to be a 50 yard pitch. Even if you aren't great from 50 yards, you're better off there than in a fairway bunker or the penalty area on the right of the fairway. It could also be a strategy you keep in your back pocket if you need to make up ground. Maybe this is a higher average score with driver, but better chance at a birdie. Maybe you are hitting your driver well and feel comfortable with letting one rip.  I get not wanting to wait and not wanting to endanger people on the tee, but in a tournament, I think I value playing for score more than waiting. I don't value that over hurting people, but you can always yell fore 😆 Only thing I would say is I'm not sure whether that cone is the best representation of the strategy (see my comment above about LSW's shot zones). To me, it looks like a 4 iron where you're aiming closer to the bunker might be the play. You have a lot of shots out to the right and only a few to the left. Obviously, I don't know where you are aiming (and this is a limitation of MyStrategy), but it seems like most of your 4 iron shots are right. You have 2 in the bunker but aiming a bit closer to the bunker won't bring more of your shots into the bunker. It does bring a few away from the penalty area on the right.  This could also depend on how severe the penalties are for missing the green. Do you need to be closer to avoid issues around the green?  It's not a bad strategy to hit 6 iron off the tee, be in the fairway, and have 150ish in. I'm probably overthinking this.
    • Day 283: Putted on my mat for a while watching an NLU video. Worked on keeping my head still primarily, and then making sure my bead is okay.
