9 Holes with 3 Clubs?

[pingman]

First things first, my home course is fairly easy, and pretty short, and from the back you can play driver/8 iron all day. Today we had practice in preparation for pre-district this Thursday. Well, our coaches went out with the girls because they need a playoff to decide who will go play and they left us boys alone. So, being bored, I figured we go play as well......using only 5 iron, 9 iron, and of course a putter. The 5 of us took off and played 9 holes using the before mentioned clubs, and we played surprisingly well. Turned out the idea of messing around turned out to help us with our creativity and "feel" around the course. I fired a 2 under 33. It was pretty fun and we're hoping the coaches will take the girls out again so we can play again.

Anyone else attempt something similar?

Yes, my crew and I have devised a game to play at the local par 3 course. Using only 2 wedges and a putter we're going around the course. THe first time I did it I was amazed I could actually hit a PW 135 yards and be on line with the pin. Plus its fun.

I did this once last year when everything but 2 hybrids, my gap/sand wedge, and putter were all being regripped, so I had a few more clubs but still only shot 3 over (38) from the reds for fun :P

I use to be a member at a par 3 course,when i first started golf and there was a two club competition on the yearly calander...obviously putter and say an 8 or 7 iron,would get you through the round..

Played in a 1 club tournament once. Most of us took either a 6, 7, or 8 iron. It was a blast.

I fired a 2 under 33.

Dude, that's a sick score for 9 holes with only 3 clubs. I wish I had time to do the same, but I have a hard enough time out there with 14 clubs haha.

i shot par on a par 5, par 4, and finished with a 180yd par 3 with nothing but my titleist driver. A buddy and I had just finished 9 (playing twilight) and it was still light so we felt like playing a couple holes. I played the first par 5 with just the driver, par it. PLaye the next par 4 with just the driver, par it. Stick a shot 7' from the pin with a driver and missed the putt.. i then tried to tiger woods the ball, hit the hosle and snapped the club head off.. i was so pissed at how stupid i was. really ruined a fun 3 holes with my retardedness...

Reminded me about a round i played 3 years ago..........this guy at my work talked trash to me for about a month knowing i was a decent golfer.......i told him i would take three clubs and beat him (3 iron, pitching wedge,putter). The course was a par 35......he shot 42 which i didnt know he had that in him, but i chipped in on the 9th hole to shoot 39 with a ob on the 8th hole....took his twenty and bought us a buck of beers
