I am a high school golf coach and enjoy your analysis and get a ton of ideas from you to help kids improve. Thank you for that! I started playing golf at 11 and used a starter set 3,5,7,9,D,3W,Putter. I played HS and college golf and 30 years as an adult with a traditional full set of clubs. Recently, at age 50, I returned to 3,5,7,9,PW,SW,GW,4H,D,3W,Putter. Much lighter to carry as I always walk!! Have you ever done a show or researched benefits/drawbacks of amateur players playing with less clubs? Going back to this equipment lineup, I find I am much more focused over iron shots, my distance control is much improved and it forces me to be more creative with shots. Not to mention, my shoulders hurt less carrying less weight and with cost of equipment it has some economic advantages with a lot of manufacturers selling individual irons now. I am a 2-3 HCP currently.
