My best clubs in no particular order:

Driver, putter, 9i, SW, 4 wood, love the 7i too.  And the LW.  Who could forget the 3H.  8i and PW very good too.

Golf is a game of confidence, right?


my 9iron hands down..

brb 9 off the tee

brb 9 on the fairway

brb 9 out of the rough

brb 9 from the bunker

brb 9 to get close to the hole

brb 9 to putt

lol

but really I have strong confidence in my 9


Driver

1 Iron (tee'd)

21* Olimar

7 Iron

GW

Putter

Least confidence

3W

4H (need more practice possibly different shaft)

Putter

Putter goes in both categories because some days its hot, others its completely lost.

This week?  None of them.

Well, maybe the putter.  Always confident with the putter.  The rest of them can go to hell.

The Fastest Flip in the West


At this point none, although I can hit good shot but I don't have confidence at all.

Mike M.

Irons G30's 4-U.

Hybrid's Callaway X2Hot 3 and 4.

Vokey Wedges SM5 Tour Chrome, 54*, 58*.

Putter Greyhawk, G25 4 wood, G25 Driver.


The biggest improvement has been my new Tour Edge Exotics XRail 7W. Out of rough, into tight greens, and off tee on 4 holes. Much more reliable than my old 7W.

On my home course, the 7W has helped tame down a headache medium-length par 4. The hole has a stovepipe landing area and hell in front of the green. I now hit a 7W off tee short of the trouble, and follow up with a 7W from a flat lie into the green.

It's great having a go-to long club other than the driver.

My second-favorite club is the 8i: reliable approach club + great on chip and run.

Focus, connect and follow through!

I don't really have one club... I'm really pretty happy with anything from 8 iron down, but my lob wedge gets the most practice so that's the one that I will pick in answer to the question.  It's the club I use inside 60 yards of the green pretty much exclusively and depending on the situation, it is on the short list for "get out of jail" clubs farther out (other option is usually 7 or 5 iron for knock-down shots from under trees).  I also love my putter, but I suspect I give my wedge more latitude for failure so...

Driver: Titleist 913 D2 10.5*, Aldila RIP Phenom 50

Fairway 1: Titleist 913F, 17*, Titleist Bassara W55

Fairway 2: Titleist 913F, 21*, Titleist Bassara W55

Irons: Titleist AP1 714 5-PW, Aerotech Steelfiber i95

Wedges: SCOR 4161 48/52/56/60, Genius 9

Grips: GolfPride New Decade Red Mid-size on all of the above.

Putter: Scotty Cameron Newport 2 - Super Stroke Slim 3.0


I love my 3-wood, as well as all my wedges. Put me inside wedge range and I can usually at least put it on the green.

My other favorite is my 9-iron, which continues a trend for me. I tend to always like the club that I use for the distance my 9-iron currently goes (used to be a 7, then an 8 as I grew older/stronger), regardless of what the number is on the bottom.

    • Day 238: played 18. Back 9 was pretty good after a rough front 9. Then worked a bit after the round at the range, just firming up some feels. 
    • Day 6 (15 Mar 25) - Played in local course’s 2man captain’s choice St Patrick’s Day tournament.  Great day of working closely with my teammate on course management process.  
    • Certainly BUY used so many near new Drivers in Good condition that will suit ...which IMHO the shaft is the most important part if you want to buy new get a shaft new that suits you then find the head you like the feel off 
    • I found being part of a Great Golf Club renewed my love for the game and comps ..previously at my other club I was just a player with novice player mates or solo .and that was hard to progress and drive the passion when my job was very restrictive to playing in good weather and friends couldn't play as much...  that become a grind at times and gave up the game for couple years..but now work for myself and have clear goals and new GC with serious players ongoing comps and great course I can pretty much always get on .. some great Golfing friends I made playing in the weekly comps ..I'm loving it..  Still get down on my game and can walk off gutted ..but thats the game we wouldn't love the good round if we never had bad rounds So for me maybe dropping the pressure of the HC grind and more so enjoy playing comps with others serious on the game ...understand the game is hard ,enjoy the good times and your game will develop ... 
    • Big week of Golf nursing golfing elbow ....played local amazing course Arrowtown tuesday ..had a tidy 81 for what I felt wasn't my best Golf in some wet windy conditions found the greens tough to read and gave away many shots... three birdies Played my local GC wed STB mens comp... very rough whole game not happy 89 just felt tired made so many mistakes max 4-holes I played well the rest rubbish to woeful ... Friday played south of my local Alexandra in a 4ball with my mates (we have a comp same partners over the year) played pretty well after not even hitting my 3wood past the ladies tee on the 1st hole ...very slow greens to what I usually played so we made gimmes within 2ft ,,,, couple birdies .. Wasn't going play ..but wife wasn't stressed so joined into the SAT Medal comp ..teed off early .. had some brilliant holes and shots some of my best .. birdied 3x ..78 for the day gave me a 7th in SNR division. putting let me down had a 4x putt on 3rd hole PAR3 ... along with 6+ three putts ... what could have been  Now looking over the above I'm sure many thinking go sort ya putting ya idot .. but couple weeks previously I played three comps .. out of those three I only had one 3x putt my best 24 putts over a round  ... but my driver off the tee was rubbish ..
