only irons. I received my MP-57's saturday and was not able to play or go to the range. I drove to the range this morning and it was locked up so I decided I'd go to a local muni and play 9. I only hit irons and shot +3. I'm extremely happy with the MP-57's. I love the feel of a well struck shot but I also like the fact that they will still rattle your hands if you miss one but won't punish you too terribly bad. As far as clubs go, they're also sexy as hell.

Nothin special but I was dialed in with my 52* wedge.

I guess I should have clarified that I used irons and a putter. Just no woods or hybrids.

congrats though this reminded me of the movie "Tin Cup" when McAvoy parred the backend with only a 7 iron, lol.

If you really choke on a sandwedge and skull it on purpose, you can putt quite well with it.

Bladed sand/lob wedge, forward press with a driver or 3-wood or running chip with a long iron for the long putts - there are ways to get around without a putter. When I was a kid, and later when i had a membership and could play more often, we used to play one club. A half decent player with some course knowledge can get around with bogeys using anything from a 5-wood to a 7 iron (more common now is likely 2 club or 3 club). It sure gives the grey matter a workout.

      Water in Bunker

      By anaveragehacker ·

      A sand trap is not supposed to have 3 inches of water in it. To me that’s temporary, casual water. Just like if your ball lands in a deep rain puddle in the middle of the fairway. I would have gladly hit out of any spot in that bunker. I understand that it’s a different rule. I just think it’s a dumb rule. You are penalized because it rained.  Here’s what I think is the dumbest rule in golf, and all sports for that matter - professionals playing for millions of dollars in a tournament have to carry around a little pencil and scorecard to keep their score and sign it, when there are big scoreboards all over the course and on tv. Can you imagine the Knicks losing because they didn’t count their score correctly? Like I said, I love the game, but it’s time to move into the 21st century already.

      Could course committee have an MLR option to declare this bunker GUR?

      Sorry, I will disagree. You got a penalty because you hit it somewhere and didn't want to play it from there. Bunkers are not the general area. If you had hit it into temporary water in the general area, you'd be entitled to relief. You hit it into a hazard, a bunker. Why should you get free relief when you hit it into a bunker? If someone else hit it into a different part of the bunker, without water, they'd not get a drop for free out of the bunker. Heck, it'd cost them two strokes if they didn't have an ACC and wanted to drop it out of the bunker.
