What is the most important golf club in your bag
from: Alfred McCallWhat is the most important
Club in your bag? What is the most important
Club in "My" bag? Ask ten different people and get ten
different answers. The driver, wedge, putter, 9 iron, different
strokes for different folks.
If you were to ask my opinion, it would be "whatever
club you are reaching for in any given circumstance".
Suppose you believe, or have been told, that the most important
golf
club in your bag is your driver. That driver is no good to
you 100 yards out from the green, and is just about useless on a
par 3 executive course. What about that new putter? Is that any
good to you in the tee box, and besides, what good is it to 2
putt on a par 5 when it takes you 7 to get there.
The bottom line is. Every tee box is different, every fairway is
different, and every sand trap, fringe, rough, and green is
different. You might play the same course week after week and
the par 5 third is different every time to step into the tee
box. It might be the tee location; it could be the pin
placement. It could be other factors like wind, rain, sun,
clouds, or fog. Everything changes day-to-day, hour-to-hour. It
is not always easy. What club should I use? What is the most
important target="_blank">golf club to me, right now?
Who cares what the most important
club in the bag is. Lets Play. Remember that par 5 third I
just told you about. It's Monday, the sun is shining, no wind,
fairway is dry and short, time to "let the BIG DOG eat". Your
drive is 250 yards plus another 30 roll...nice. Next a 5 iron
brings you in close, you chip on and 2 putt for par. What was
your most important target="_blank">golf club? They all seem to be pretty
important to me. Now it is 3 days later, Thursday, same course,
same hole.... or is it? It rained the night before, the fairway
was not mowed, and it is cloudy with a 15 mph right to left
wind. What is your most important golf club? You don't know. You
play the same clubs and score a 9 or 10 instead of par.
Why??
The answer is really quite simple. Go to any driving range and
watch people hit balls, I would bet that 95% of the people at
the range use their driver to hit most, if not all, of their
shots. Then watch people when they get ready for a round of
golf, they spend their time on the putting green while they wait
to tee off. You might have noticed that there are about 12 other
golf
clubs in your bag.
Final analysis. Get a lesson, learn to swing properly, and use
and get to know every target="_blank">golf club in your bag. They are all the most
important target="_blank">golf club in your bag.
