Which club do you "Ho" the most?

[bradkv]

Just wondering if I am truly disturbed, or if it's really common. As golfers, we all are looking for that magic stick that will take strokes off the handicap. Which club in your bag seems to always be on the chopping block. Meaning, which spot in the bag sees the most rotation for you.

 

For me, it seems to be the 3 wood. I played with an old Maruman M210 for about 6 years, till the head cracked on me, and ever since I have been searching for that same magic. I could not miss with the Maruman. Even with balata balls and a steel shaft and small head, it was good back then for about 265 yards. Now I just can't seem to replace it even with the new technology. Wedges also see a lot of rotation, but mainly because I wear them out pretty quickly. I average a full set of wedges per year. The driver is hit or miss, but it is a big hit right now with the J33R 460, it is a mainstay, as I have tried everything else out there and nothing works as well for my swing. The irons are a mainstay now also, with 695 CB's being custom built for me and working tremendously well.

 

By the way, putters don't count. True golfers go through putters like Colin Farrel goes through women.

everything. no club is safe...

[idrive400yards]

Drivers, need more Drivers. :yahoo:

[markus1*]

The only clubs that aren't safe in my bag are the putter and the fairway wood ( will change to 906f and than it will be set...) My red X is good but I'm looking for a Circle T...

Irons - like they are going out of style. 20+ sets since 1994. I just imposed a one year moratorium on bag changes, so it is 695.cbs for me until June 17, 2007. Maybe by then I will have padded my savings account with my saved "hoing" money.

[steve81]

drivers, drivers, and more drivers :yahoo:

[TheBUNKY]

Hybrids.......

 

Ben Hogan CFT 3h

Ben Hogan CFT 4h

Ping G2 2HL

Cobra Baffler 2h

Tour Edge Bazooka JMAX 3 iron

 

Currently own the Nickent 3DX Ironwoods in 17* and 24*

 

All of this within the past calendar year. 7 different hybrids in the past year. How insane is that?

[abc123tyler]

well.. my driver stayed in the bag the longest and I have had my irons for 8? months. But in a year I have gone through 3 putters and 6 wedges... my excuse is that I have only been really playing over a year and am trying to settle into the type of putter I want and the style of wedge (loft/bounce/etc) that I am going to stick with.

[MORTOYZ]

3 Woods-Somewhere a couple months ago I lost confidence in what has always been my goto, never lets me down club. So I started hoin' 3 woods. Just when I think I'm good, I start hookin' it. Right now, my R7st seems to be the answer, things are back to normal. But here's the list from the last 60 days.

 

Sonartec SS 3.5 w/Diamana

Sonartec NP-99 w/NV

R7 w/Fuji Vista

Callaway X-Tour w/Diamana

R7 st w/REAX

R7 st w/DG Lite

Cobra X/Speed 4+

 

Then again, nothing is ever really safe...

[PMAC]

PUTTERS!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Scotty's x4.....

2 differant 2 balls....

and Tri-ball.....

Macgregor Bobby Grace 6.4 heal and center

Ram Tom Watson blade

about 8 Pings from the Ballnamic 868 to the Ping Eye Putter to the good old Anser....

plus more......Wilson......Bullseye......Macgregor Response.....

 

TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MANY.........

 

A putter is only as good as its last round....but if it goes low for me, it buys more time.....

 

:yahoo:

[Grant076]

Seems like my wedges are always on the move, but probably because I wear them out quickly..

Used to be 3 woods but I gave up on that and got a 16* hybrid, and that's safe! :yahoo:

[dac]

i have a sickness with drivers... *sigh*

[tanj]

Putter. But I don't change as much as everyone else does.

EDIT: Oops! Didn't read the whole original post. Well other than the putter, I'm happy with all my clubs. If you want to talk about golf equipment in general, it would have to be my golf bag.

[KingOAces]

It would definately be putters, but since you said they don't count, i'd have to say fairway woods, but if the SasQuatch wasn't so draw-biased, it be my gamer.

[broth518]

By far putters...

 

I have had 4 this month!!!

I have watched you on various boards thru the last couple of years. BCU, a one year moratorium, Come on, that ain't gonna happen :yahoo: :yahoo:

[Chelanace]

3 woods are a weakness. Next comes wedges. But I always go back to my trusty Nike Tour. getting old and ragged, but still the best I have played.

 

We won't even talk about putters!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :yahoo:

[BCULAW]

I PROMISE that I will not buy a club for at least one day. Did I type "year" in my first post? WTH was I thinking!?!?!?!?!

 

All joking aside, I really am going to try to stick with the same sticks for a while. Problem is that I am so scared that I will impose the moratorium after I fill my bag with the wrong clubs that I keep buying clubs and then taking them back to make sure that I have "chosen wisely." I am such a psycho that I have actually returned three cart bags this week because I knew that I would be stuck with one bag for a while and did not like the way my clubs and headcovers looked in them.

 

I need a twelve step program!!!!

[dcorun]

Not a one of them is safe. As soon as they betray me GOODBYE!! :yahoo:

[millercg]

Drivers.

 

:cheesy: :smilie_cally: :) :smilie_tm:

 

Putters would be second.

 

:betty:

[Sakman]

Wedges, drivers and putters.

[Guillotine007]

i don't know if any putter could knock my baby out of the bag. 23 putts last round goes a long way to making it untouchable.

 

3 wood will be the next thing to go though. TEE here i come.

[clint6760]

For me it is fairway woods and putters

[GolferGal2009]

Since putters don't count, it would have to be putter accesories. Ball markers, SC headcovers, divot tools, everything. I'm always looking for used Scottys to buy but I will never change from the one I have now, we've gone through too much together. :cheesy:

[cjdrcc]

Drivers, then wedges. Putters don't count but if they did, they would be #1.

[alpha_pro]

..the only thing that hasnt changed more than once has been my bag. i have had 2 in the last 8 months. the rest of the stuff, has been changed quite often. im sure i have missed a few things too. i cant really go a week without wanting to try something else. keep in mind that this was only within the last 8 months. my friends think i have a problem.....i dont really disagree. and it isnt that im not comfortable with the equipment, its just the urge to buy more stuff. im sure you guys know what i mean.

Echo most posts - just about everything - but more as a collector than as a constant club tinkerer. I like to keep my competition set (of irons and wedges anyway) fairly set - better playing stuff 'under the gun' that you know what you can do with. I also like to keep the driver fairly set as well. My tendency towards any change is in the fairway metal, hybrid and putter departments. Fairway metals (3 wood) and finding 'the right one' is the probably most elusive track of all.

 

In summary, I like some degree of consistency in my competition set, but for bounce and social games anything can go in the bag - keeps the game more interesting. After all you can't buy stuff and just look at it.

8 putters in rotation at the moment, love them all...... :cheesy:

[theothertwo]

Drivers, fairway woods and irons in that order. I hardly change putters and wedges.

[InspiredGolf]

The only thing I have kept over one year is my TaylorMade Golf Towel that I won in a raffle. I have had it for 5 years. Once I started buying and selling on e-bay it was ON :) . Next thing I know I have almost 500 positive feedbacks in 5 years and most it was buying, playing & then selling it back on e-bay. Sometimes I made money but not always. I've even bought clubs back because I regreted selling it. I think they call it selective memory. After a while you forget why you sold it and think man, I used to kill that thing. I love my current set as I am playing well and plan to keep it for a long time :cheesy:
