We are about to have a tournament using only 5 golf clubs, any combination of 5 clubs. Which 5 clubs would you choose? 6K course, 67.13 / 115.
I'm thinking 3wood, 6 iron, 8 iron, 54* wedge, putter.

Driver, 4-Hybrid, 7-iron, PW, Putter.

I'm a short-hitter so I'll need the driver. Usually use my 9-iron to chip but have been practicing with my PW so I can use it out of the bunkers if need be.

9 iron (120-150)
6 iron (160-185)
3 hybrid (230 off tee/ 215 off deck)

If it doesn't violate the rules, sometimes less is more. But if I have to add another just add a 58' Wedge.

I would make my final decision based on the distances of the par 3s of the course, but without knowing that it would be either Driver, 5 iron, 8 iron, 56w and putter or 5 wood, 6 iron, 9 iron, 56w and putter, depending on the length of the course overall. You said 6000 yards so probably the second set (starting with 5 wood).

You are at the right age to have that 5th club be a ball retriever.

There is no ball hawking from this guy. I leave that for the professionals. Then again it is always nice to donate a few balls to a present and future customer of the good doctor.

Driver, hybrid, 6 iron, 56 degree, putter. I feel like I'd be able to hit any shot I'd come across with those 5.

60 degree wedge (anything inside 100, gonna see a lot of those shots with this set of clubs)
9 iron (120-150)
6 iron (160-185)
3 hybrid (230 off tee/ 215 off deck)


If Vince throws the 3 Hybrid into the pond, does he get to choose another club or does he have to finish with 4??

The only club you'd need is that famous 5 iron.

It has dropped its average distance to ZERO yards recently! :(
