Got my signs backwards. My point was that in your example, you're adding the benefit of a 2 iron when taking out the LW. In the OP's example, because he only has 12 clubs, adding the LW can't hurt since he doesn't have to remove a club to do so.

I said he might not benefit. Maybe he will but maybe for every great shot he'll duff two more. Not everyone has hours and hours to devote to practice (like you did with your putting as a kid  - another thread - just sayin').

So he's better off not trying? I'm not saying it's guaranteed benefit. I'm only saying I don't see a reason why he wouldn't add one.

I go 50, 55 (bent the 56 to 55), and 60 and use the same shaft with 1/4 length shaft increments - the purpose to get consistency between clubs. But 50, 56, 60 also works. I think of the 60 as being a specialty club for use around the greens more than a full swing club. I use the 60 for almost all shots around the green in rough, bunkers, tight spots, chips, soft pitches, delicate partials, etc. It's my get it close to the hole club from around the green, because right now, with swing changes, I don't hit a lot of GIR.

I like to take full swings ... not really the best at adjusting my stroke so  I say get the 60 as well ... I have 2 Vokey's ... the 56 and the 60 (Used to use the 56 for everything and realized after making myself play the 60 that it is now also a go to club)

A player should be able to adust their stroke. How do you take shots around the green? How do you play in the wind?
