I found this site which gives what exact clubs the top pro's carry in their bags - it's really interesting.     Funny - Tiger, Rory & Westwood are old school - all about fairway woods & a 3 iron.      Majority carry at least one hybrid (Els carries 3).    Amazing actually how many still carry a 3 iron.      Most amazing thing I learned out of all this is that I always assumed the pro's bags were stacked with lots of scoring wedges ... most only have 3 - pitching, sand & lob - it's all about feel for them at that level ... only Furyk and Fowler carry a gap wedge).

I know some of the guys will tweek their clubs, so I wonder if the loft figures are all correct.

Fowler`s wedges are particularly unusual

(48°, 50°, 55°, 59°)  All Vokey so it is surprising to see how close his gap wedge is to his PW.

Right - doesn't make sense ... his PW may say 48°, but it could have easily been bent a degree or so strong

    • I know one recent college grad who's trying the same thing.  This guy was a Division III All-American, went on to play one year at Division I LSU, and is not working hard.  He won the Gulf States Open, a pro event, and made it to the second stage of the Korn Ferry Tour School late in the fall.  And didn't make the cut to get to the final stage.  I won't talk about swing or play stuff, but I believe there are a couple of things that are essential.  Obviously, talent, and drive, or work ethic.   I can't tell you how to do it, but you HAVE to get through it.  Golf is going to be your life, and it takes lots of work. Two more things that are really critical.  You'll need the facility to be able to practice.  My young friend stayed in Baton Rouge, as a past player on the team he can still use the LSU practice facilities.  And money.  Its unlikely you'll be able to work a full-time job and practice the way you will need to.  You'll probably need backing, from a parent, from a consortium of friends or club members., something to support you. Good luck, its not an easy path, but anything is possible.  Another young man from our area, Mike Brennan, just won for the first time on the "big" PGA Tour.    
    • No one in the world is as smart as Phil thinks he is.
    • Get more comfortable with being uncomfortable. If you don’t like practicing then give up now. You don’t have the passion to become a pro. Unless that mentality changes you won’t do well under stressful situations.    Call the PGA Tour and ask. They probably have resources available.

    • Thanks man, sometimes it’s hard to improve bc when I’m not feeling comfortable I don’t like practicing bc I get frustrated. Any advice?
