Does anyone own two identical sets of clubs? That isn't sponsored by a club manufacturer.

Just curious if anyone keeps two sets of the same for travel, or one at course and home or any other reasons....

I do.

One set of Hogan BH-5 at home -- I usually take those to the range. (I play Apex Plus irons.)

One set at my family's place out in CA for trips out there. That way I don't have to travel with the clubs ever.

I picked the sets up new, but Hogan had been swallowed up by Callaway, so I got them on the cheap (about $180 per set, I think).

Both sets are 3-PW.  I don't think I'll ever do that again, but it's kind of nice right now.

I will, as soon as I can find a reasonably priced set of Mizuno MP-32's.

Once you find your 'forever irons', why not?

I guess one could argue that it wouldn't be smart, as new irons could come along and make your 2 sets obsolete, etc.

I have a set of Ping g5 irons I am keeping around. I bought them new last year and now friends use them after I played one season and found out Black Dot are not for me. I now carry g2 orange dot irons. The g5 will probably end up in Tulsa at my moms house. It's cheaper to fly round trip to Tulsa from Dallas than it is to drive now ways...

Same driver. Different 3-wood.  60 wedge in CA, 58 in OK.
Putters are different too.

      What'd You Shoot Today?

      By bkuehn1952 ·

      Played my first 2024 round at Pierce Lake. Boomed my first drive down #10 fairway, then slowly slipped into mediocrity. 83 (69.6/131). The high point was going 2 of 4 on sand saves. My sand game is pretty marginal but today I must have discovered the secret for a couple hours.

      How Much do You Exercise?

      By 4zim ·

      I’ve recently started KBs too and really enjoy it. I have one day of armour building complex and one day of a mobility routine. Adding in a speed training day too.    which routines do you do @Elmer

      My Swing (billchao)

      By 4zim ·

      Again, I’m not an expert so take it with a grain of salt My question is whether laying back even further becomes too conservative and that strategy is suboptimal as a result? Essentially what’s the cost of guaranteed longer second shot vs the x% risk for hitting the bunker? I think the optimal way to answer the question is looking at strokes gained, in consideration of the hazards and penalties, and picking the strategy that maximizes SG off the tee. I’ve seen some apps that do this but I’m not sure how accurate they are.   And again, asking all this so I can learn what I should be doing in these situations rather than questioning your approach Bill. I would give an example of the course I’m joining this year where I plan to aim at the bunker, but I don’t want to take over your swing thread any further!
