Three club games seem the most popular. I was just curious what three the members of the erudite list would choose. Mine? 5 (or 7 if I’m shakey) wood, 7iron and putter. Sparky
Response:
5-wood, 8-iron, GW. Putt with the wood and 8-iron – I doubt I’d even miss mu putter.

I was playing (badly) once with some friends and hurt my back a little on #7. Not wanting to stop, but not able to carry my bag for nine more holes, I grabbed my 3-wood, 8-iron, and putter and played the back. Shot an 88. 47 on the front nine with all my clubs, 41 on the back with just those three. Hit a couple great shots out of greenside bunkers with my 8-iron, too.

In my case over 9 holes I pretty much played my usual bogie game!

Thats funny…my friends call me sparky also…but I do agree with your selection of clubs…I would choose the same because: putter- for the obvious reason, 3wood to help with the longer holes , and a 7iron for its loft and good distance/feel – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – My friends and I waste some time, on occasion, by playing with a reduced number or only one club ( guess which club is used in "fourplay?").

So we get a chart of; 5W 7I Putter 3I 7I Putter 4I 8I Putter 5I 9I Putter I’m wondering why a putter seems to be a defacto requirment. I would think you could putt by chocking up on a long iron and replace the putter with a scoring wedge or a fairway wood (depending on your game and the course.)
I think I have seen others post before when this question comes up, that they do choose a driver and use it as their putter. This would allow a Driver, 5 Iron, and maybe a PW. Better range selection if you could use the driver as a putter. For me, I think that I would want that feel of the putter to actually feel more confident making longer putts.

Today, for grins and giggles I played alternating holes with a semi full bag (3W 5W 7W 5-9I PW SW Putter) and the next with 7W 7I Putter (old 10deg Burke blade-good around the fringe) typical beginning of season bogie-double bogie but the 3-club holes were 3 strokes better, bogies on the par 5’s even?? I use the fairway woods better than the long irons btw, chip better w/ the 7 than pitch with the wedges. Sparky – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text -Tim
