Anyone Carry Clubs They Don't Use?

i've been thinking about this recently.

right now i carry a 4 iron and 54* wedge that just never come out of the bag. realistically my 3 wood doesn't get the headcover taken off all that much either. if i'm having a bad driver day, i'm better off with my hybrid off the tee.

does anyone else do this? do you create shots with less used clubs to make them handy?

I use them all, but the next one coming out is my 4-iron. Gonna get a 4-hybrid to match my 3h.

I use all of my clubs. Some may not see action in a particular round, but usually they all see at least a shot or two.

i'm definitely in your boat. there's no reason i shouldn't be carrying a 4 hybrid, especially because there is a huge gap between my ~200 yard 3 hybrid and my ~170 yard 5 iron and i really have trouble laying back on the hybrid.

Every club in my bag is there because I know from experience that I'm going to use it.  Clubs which I didn't use (3I, 4I, LW) were replaced by clubs which are useful for me, or that I have more confidence in using.

I love my course because in almost every round I play I use every club at least twice.

I have clubs that don't get used often but I carry what I need as course conditions change. An example would be 4 hybrid. It's rare I need it for anything but recovering from a bad drive and one long par 3 at my home course but there really isn't anything that would be a better choice. Other courses I use it more because of the abundance of very long or very short par 4's. At those courses the middle of the bag sees less use.

When I carry the bag in my signature, I pretty much use every club, especially if I play 18 at my home course. Actually, that is how some of the clubs got in the bag-to play shots I needed on certain holes.

I have a 5 wood I don't use in my bag. Not enough gap between my 4 Iron and my 3 wood to use it. Don't need another club though so I leave it in there.
