here's the scoop... I have 18 clubs... (well that I choose from now)... from the last thread I posted about how far do you hit each club... here are my distances and lofts...

Driver- 290- 8.5
3-wood- 265- 15
7-wood- 245- 20
Hybrid- 255- 16
1-iron- 255- 15
2-iron- 240- 18
3-iron- 228- 21
4-iron- 215- 24
5-iron- 202- 27
6-iron- 190- 31
7-iron- 177- 35
8-iron- 163- 39
9-iron- 150- 43
PW----136- 47
GW----122- 52
SW--- 110- 56
LW--- 95- 60
Putter-------- 4

Okay I am open to any opinions on what club to pull... These were some of my ideas first... I thought of pulling my 2-iron and carrying 3-iron-pitching wedge, 52, 56, and 60... being a long hitter I thought it wouldn't matter... Then I was playing a 245-yard par 3 and didn't want to try and force a 3-iron... so I tried to punch a 3-wood and ended up in the water over the green... so I have made the decision to never leave myself in no-mans land again... I hit the ball very high with long irons... so yanking my 2-iron has been out of the question for a while... (and its not a hybrid 2-iron)... I am a scratch player and I just want an idea of what 14 to carry... The 15 you see in my signature are what are in the bag now... I'm open to suggestions

That leaves you with 15 clubs, and a couple of options depending on the prevailing conditions, with the remaining 15, I would suggest chopping and changing clubs to suit the course, how many courses are you going to need both a 240 yard club (2 iron) and a 255 yard club (hybrid) so you could switch between those two clubs. Hope this helps

    • Several years ago I got paired with a twosome of golfers, one of which had a maybe 5-year-old son with him. The kid had a putter and a 7i with him, and on some holes he would drop a ball near the green, chip on, and putt. If the kid started to get distracted, the dad would ask, "Do you need to rest?" The kid would nod yes, and then take his dad's seat riding in the cart for a couple of holes. It was a slow day, and the kid was polite and friendly. We got through 18 just fine. (If it had been a crowded course day, I'm sure it would have been less pleasant.)
    • Caution for the seniors on weight training: Listen to your body. (I'm 75) I got a recent session with an orthopedist after a training-related injury. I put too much weight on a new resistance machine at the gym and ended up with bursitis in my left hip. Of course, it's the hip I dislocated back in 2023. I have my first physical therapy session tomorrow. I remarked that some days I can do 45 lbs. chest press - two sets - without much effort. But other days it drops down to 30 (😩) with just one set. (Complicating factor: I had digestive problems in this fall and lost about 20 lbs., with slip in muscle tone.) Orthopedist said that I want to feel some resistence, but that I should go with lots of reps with manageable weights rather than trying to set some sort of lift-pound record. I'm sure I'll get some refinements on lifting during tomorrow's PT.
