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?

      Thank you.  I'll cross it off the list since it isn't going to achieve what I want.

      Phil Mickelson Booted out of Farms Golf Club

      While it does turn out that both Tiger and Phil are less squeaky clean than I previously believed, I don't think golf quite has the worst in professional sports.  Or maybe they're better at image management.   Obviously I'm not fond of Phil's issue we're discussing in this thread (or his involvement with LIV) or Tiger's choices of how to drive.  I used to really like Dustin Johnson and, even before the LIV situation, we started to hear rumors that he bought more snow than Seward, although I don't think those stories were ever substantiated.  Meanwhile, I did think of Anthony Kim as the "good, bad boy" of the tour for a while fifteen years ago because of his party persona -- and if it turns out the worst he did was show up hung over to play (barring what one thinks of LIV), that's pretty good.  And I'm still happy he found a way to get his life clean. If we contrast that with some other sports I enjoy, I'm sure we could find a nice long list of NFL players that, at one point in my life, I was quite fond of, we get far worse disappointments (to put it mildly).

      Answering that properly would land me in hot water, so I'm not going to. I don't think that many people would do that. I think that in certain circumstances many people would be willing to overlook someone doing that. But I was really referring to what I assumed was Tiger's transgressions (cheating on his wife) not Phil's.

      No! Is a large part of the human population selfish, apathetic and cuts corners in the name of self-preservation 'more than they would like to admit', yes. Degenerate, scum, etc?.. no!! Most humans/men would not grope a woman like Phil is accused of doing (I think he absolutely did). That is scum. I mean what % of men do you think would do that? Seriously??
