8 iron. Best club in my last two sets.

Best 8i shot - a draw back against a left-to-right crosswind. Lands soft and often close.

Also use it for chip and run - get occasional chip-in birdies from just off the green.

Focus, connect and follow through!

Good topic. This may sound strange, but the irons that I am currently waiting for. I bought some used MP 52s a few days ago, but have demoed them extensively and think they will be my favorite thing in my bag (I'll have to come back to this thread and say which iron in particular after a few rounds). I look forward to getting a new driver that I can say that about = )

No, I don't find it that strange. I hate having to wait for things, especially new clubs.

Let us know what the clubs are like when you get them

My 52 degree wedge. If I am 110-120 out, I know I can pull my 52 out and put that thing on the green. I rarely miss-hit my 52 and when I do it's because I've come too quick through the impact area and my ball will go left of target a bit. But I don't hook with this thing like I do my irons and PW. I also love to use it to chip around the green if I need more roll (pin on opposite side or above a break). Still can't believe how much I enjoy my Adams wedges, and the 3 of them together was only $90.

Lately, it's been my 8 iron. 150 yards on the money and dead straight every time. I absolutely smile when my drive ends up 150 yards out, because I know I'm getting greens in reg.

By far my putter. I will never replace it!

I'd say it's a toss-up between my MP-52 47* PW or my Rife putter. I'm able to handle ranges from 80-115, multiple trajectories, cut or draw and even chip with the PW. It's eliminated my need for a GW so the only only wedge I carry is a 56 CG12 DSG. I've cut my putts/hole from over 2 to around 1.8 since I bagged the putter. It's saved me 3+ strokes a round by itself.

Right now, it's my Mizuno 7-iron. I've been hitting it frequently on my course's Par-3's (from the tips), and it's been a thing of beauty. 160 - 170 yards has been the right range.

My best iron definitely has to be my 6 iron. I get good height with about 150-170 yards distance.

Well, I'm actually equally confident with every club in the bag right now which is a great feeling I've been waiting for, except maybe the hybrid which is new (but convinced it's a miracle club). My go-to clubs are my 4 and 7 irons when I need to get creative but I've always believed I could flush and pull off any shot with the 7

My 4H---very confident with this club---feels great and reliably produces a 205 yard soft draw. Good for long par 3s, narrow/short par 4s, and from the fairway/rough on par 5s. Don't know what it is about this club, but the swing weight feels just right (feels better than my other clubs)

It's a toss-up for me as well. I love my 8 iron, for some reason I've always been comfortable hitting it, even as a kid years ago. It doesn't matter if it's a full swing, half swing, or a bump and run around the green. But I also love my Cleveland CG14 wedge. It has been the easiest club for me to hit that I have ever had.

My best club is my cheapest. It's my Wilson-Staff FY-Brid 3 wood that I got on clearance. I can hit it off the tee or off the deck dead straight and about 225.

For me, it would be a tossup between my TM R9 and my Hockey Stick Putter. I can usually get 250-260 yards out of the R9 and Ive always been a pretty good putter.

Lately it's been my Driver. Keeping my drives under control and in the fairway has really been a huge part of scoring well recently. I actually was thinking about putting an after-market shaft on but with how I've been hitting it recently, why fix what isn't broken?

By the way, imtomtomim, I'm totally jealous of your all Nickent bag.

    • Day 36: back to some mirror work tonight. Need a bit more forearm roll in my feels to help with the shallowing. 
    • _sigh_ so close to red text.  Went away for three days, but didn't do a practice morning-of-departure (Friday) nor evening-of-return (Sunday), so I had three misses, back to day one. Day 1, May 4 2026.  At home today, spent nearly an hour in my practice room, hitting about three dozen practice balls, primarily with my 6-iron.
    • Day 254 5-4 Arms off chest in backswing and downswing. Short swing, pause and then hit.  Hit foam balls. Keeping arching of wrist a focus as well. 
    • I would think of it in terms of time. The time it takes to get the arm angle into a good position to deliver the club with proper shaft lean. Another component is rotation, but that is also a matter of timing. It relates to how the body stalls to give the golfer time to hit the ball. If you have to get 80+ degrees out of that right elbow in one third of a second versus 50 degrees in the same time then you have to steal time from somewhere. It is usually body rotation. That does not help with shaft lean.  I agree in that amateurs tend to make the swing more complicated than pro golfers. 
    • I haven't been able to practice like I wanted and won't for the next week.  1. The weather sucks in Ohio this year. I have been mostly inside hitting foam balls. Just kind of my basic stuff.  2. I woke up last Saturday with a left side rib muscle on fire. If I turned or leaned a certain way it would spasm that almost buckled my knees. I have been taking a break to let that settle. I don't want to get a long term injury. I think I pinched a nerve or just aggravated a muscles.   3. I am going on a mini-vacation to Florida (screw you Ohio weather) with a friend, and rolling that into a work conference I have next week. I will be with out my clubs for a week.  I will be back next in two Fridays to hit the ground running with some warmer temps and better weather in Ohio, hopefully. I would really like to get more out on the course and the range.
