Currently have 13 clubs in the bag. Driver, 3 and 5 wood, 4-PW,SW,and 60 degree wedge and putter. What would be a good choice for a 14th club. Recently got into golf a few months ago and usually shoot around 102-105.

Probably a wedge that is between you PW and SW. A Slingshot PW is 46 degrees and your SW is 56, so a 52 or 53 wedge would be a good way to go.

A 52 degree would fit into the gap between your pitching wedge and sand wedge. For example: I hit my PW 115 yards and my SW 90 yards. I recently bought a AW - 100 yards - to fill in that large gap.

What's In My Bag...
Driver: Callaway Razr X Black 10.5*
FW / Hybrid: Nike T40 4W 17* / Nike CPR 24*
Irons: Callaway Razr X HL 5I-SW
Putter: Nike Method Core Putter
Balls: Nike PD Soft

It just fills in a yardage gap between your PW and SW and can also be used for lower trajectory pitches and longer bunker shots.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      I am fascinated by this article. Given so many are upset, I would love to see how the calculations changed for them. In the USA, it likely reduced handicaps, at least for me. In the UK it appears to inflate handicaps but not uniformly?

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By xrayvizhen · Posted

      To flog this subject even further, if that's even possible, this article from Golf Monthly just appeared today in one of my news feeds. Written by a golf writer in the UK who I never heard of, he's basically saying that there should be only 3-5 rounds from the most recent 20 that should count towards the average and only competitive rounds should count. He claims the erratic scorers would have less of an advantage than they do now. He makes a lot of references to "club golfers" in the UK being the ones who are mostly dissatisfied. https://share.google/qmZZBEoJvOxHxJGil  In my experience with my league where we have golfers with indexes ranging from 5 to 40, looking at the weekly results from the past two years, I can detect no pattern that would substantiate the claim that the current system gives an unfair advantage to either erratic golfers (aren't we all?) or higher handicappers. Apparently though, at least in the UK, this seems to be "a thing."
