It varies. When a club feels like the weak link, I make sure to practice a bit more with it next time at range. If a club is consistently "the worst", then it needs to find a new home.

I've had the most agonies with the putter...

But I'd say the driver. It's so feast-or-famine. When I don't drive it in trouble...I put up really good numbers. When I drive it terribly....I have to be on fire with everything else to put up decent numbers.

None. I hit them all the same. I have never had a "worst club," even when I was a little kid shooting in the 100s. I think certain shots might be harder for some people, but I don't know how one club could be worse than another in someone's bag. All of the clubs do a certain job and if you can't execute that shot (3-wood off the deck, driver off the tee, a chip or putt), you just need to work on that skill. Even when I added a 2-iron back when I was 16 years old, that club never gave me any more problems than the other ones in my bag. Maybe that is just my experience.

Worst club?

I can't think that way.

Driver In comparison to my irons I just cannot get any distance. Have tried multiple drivers, shafts and lofts. Can hit my 19 degree hybrid almost as far.

I call it my lava iron, use one when I go into the lava rock at my course, bloody hate it when I have to pick that one up, never know if the head of the club is gonna go right off an fly farther than the ball.  Hasn't happened though since late 2009 (poor old Nike 8-iron), still have a MaxFli 8-iron that is now serving as my lava iron.

58 degree wedge. It's great chipping and out of the bunker, but if I have have to hit a full shot with it, who knows....

Definitely my ball scoop...I seldom use it and have never had to have it re-gripped :)

Wait..  We can bring lie into it?  In that case, my worst definitely has to be driver from a fairway bunker with a high lip.  Either that, or putter over a water hazard.  Other than those two, I love all my clubs.

If I had a mickey of "Canadian Club" and a 6-pack of "Club" in my golf bag, it would be a two-way tie for "Worst Club in my bag".

I don't know why anyone would even carry a club they believed would be their worst. I can hit every club in my bag. If I couldn't hit one of them I would find one I could.

Sounds logical, but my 3 W is quite suspicious.  there will be time I will strike it like I knew what I was doing and and get 230-250..then, a push, pull ot just plain FAT..perhaps 100 yds.  not knowing what the outcome is a pain, but also a challange just the same.  Am working to perfect it, but right now its anyones guess what the result will be, but not enough to throw it in the creek.....yet!!!

Putter. Right now it's an old ping zing 2 with an old crusty chapped-lip grip. Belongs to my dad (he's letting me borrow it) and is bent retardedly upright, like 4 or 5 degrees. I'll have to make it work until I can pick up a new anser next month.

Which club is your best club, or are they all exactly equal?

    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?      
    • Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
