Ditched the 4 iron

[GaijinGolfer]

They fit, it's just a little snug. I used to carry a driver, 3-wood, 3, 4 and 5-hybrids, 6-pw irons 3 wedges and a putter and they all fit.

Besides, I'd rather my bag be a mess than to have my game be a mess because I'm constantly fighting my long irons.

Perhaps this is true ... HOWEVER, tell me how 3 or 4 hybrids, a couple fairways, and a 460cc driver fit in a golf bag !!!    LOL - it's rediculous trying to get all those hybrids in a golf bag assuming you use headcovers.    If you don't use headcovers, a golf bag full of hybrids sounds about like a decorated christmas tree bouncing down the fairway ... hey, I've been there with a bag full of hybrids & it's a mess ... something to consider.

I have no problems with: Driver, 15 degree 3W, 18 degree  Hybrid, 21 degree Hybrid, 4i down to W, U (approach wedge), 60 degree and a putter, and carry most of the time. I arranged my irons in a way that they don't hit each other, and have head covers on the hybrids and woods.

I ditched my 4i for a 4h - and am super happy.  i can do a lot more things with that hybrid.

I'm pretty much going to drop the 5w for the 2h also.  same reasons.  Harder decision, I like the 5w and how it sets up, I just like the 2h a tiny bit more - I can use the 2h anywhere I use the 5w, but can't use the 5w anywhere I use the 2h.

anyone want to buy a nearly new 4i?

clubs with covers in my bag?  (Dr, 3w, 2h, 4h,.....putter)

I love my 4i, use it off the tee as well as on the fairway and under trees. I know I can drop the ball consistent 195+/- easy 3/4 swing, full swing 210+/- yards. I can aim it well so if I am going for a green or to get it close that is my go to. I have pushed this to 220 yards on a few par 3's, but that is a push and only make it 90% of the time.

My 3h is great for getting me down the fairway out of the ruff 200/220 yards with an easy swing, low ball flight with some roll not so great with the accuracy, but can keep it in the fairway, I will never use it if I am going for the green, I just don't control it that well..

I do have a 4w 16.5* but have only used this a few times in the last few months. It is great when I need to get the ball high and fast but to be honest not sure why I even carry it any more.
