I have been reconfiguring my bag recently. I bought new irons, 5-PW,GW. As of now I play a driver, 3 wood (15*), 5 wood (18.5*), 5i-9i, PW (47*), GW (51.5*), a 54*, a 60*, and a putter. I have room for one more club. I am considering a 4H with a loft of 21*. Along with adding a hybrid I am thinking about bending my wedges to even out loft gaps. I talked about this with my friend who's on track to play golf in college this year. I have been very meticulous, borderline OCD, about setting up my bag this summer. He said because golf is such a mental game that it would be a good idea if it's something that would bug me (which it did when i played with him yesterday). I want to bend my PW from 47* to 46* and my GW from 51.5* to 50*. So my wedges would be as follows, 46-50-54-60. And my woods would be as follows, 9.5-15-18.5-21. Any tips or anything? Thank you.

4 Brews / 18 Holes = Winning

5+ Brews / 18 Holes = Losing

Yes, get an adjustable hybrid so you can tweak it.

SW at 55 to go 50, 55, 60. Adding bounce is typically a good thing unless the leading edge comes up.

On the 4H, figure out what kind of launch you want. I carry the Adams V4 4H, and it has a low-mid launch Bassara shaft. Ball comes off hotter than with some Hs, but still reaches a decent height.

I carry a 4W and 7W which both work fine, so the lower 4H launch comes in handy. (I don't miss my 3i quite so much now...)

Focus, connect and follow through!

    • Day 23: weird day, and only had a little bit of time. Just did mirror work again, working on where the elbow is in the downswing 
    • I flipped over to this tonight and thoroughly enjoyed it. Anyone else watch? I picked it up during the golf relay event, but seeing these pros out having fun in alternative events was refreshing and entertaining. I’m sure it will be on in reruns in the next week or so, so I won’t spoil the outcome. Im curious what others thought of it. I’m recording it’s later airing to see the beginning. 
    • Day 443 - 2025-12-17 Made a few swings in testing some things out at another academy. Might pop up on someone else's podcast in a few weeks.
    • Day 37 (17 Dec 25) - nine hole round with my good friend.  We got paired up with a couple of the men’s group regulars as part of their shootout.  Started off with a wonderful quad bogie and then a dbl on three to be six over thru three holes.  Game went 180° over the next five as I shot one under (including a chip in birdie on hole six and four up and down 1 putt pars) for a net finish of five over. What could have been a really tough nine became a solid finish due to staying in the moment and not checking out.  Great day in course management and keeping perspective .
    • Day 127 12-17 Backswing and flow practice. Took advantage of the 60 degeee weather(it was 20 degrees Sunday)
