5 iron 230 yards :bulgy-eyes: makes my 190 look pants lol
I disagree with the 3 iron being overrated, but that is just me. I think distance off the tee is an overrated number (I am guilty of caring too much about this and I am not throwing stones) and short iron accuracy is underrated. Everybody wants to be long off the tee, but I don't hear much about GIR's. The slam dunk is sexy, but 3 pointers really get the job done.
Your right, I was looking more at it as a whole than individual.
For me...it is starting to be anything over the 5 iron....
Honestly, I played yesterday and after i put my ego and driver in the bag, i played a lot better.
I even started hitting my 5 iron off the tee and hit it around 230 yards each time, more than enough to put me within a short iron into some of the shorter par 4s.
Sure, this means I may not reach some of the longer par 5s in 2, but I wasn't doing that anyway using a driver and 3 wood.....
And i love my wedges...all 5 of them. (PW, GW, 56, 62, 64), used them all and with success.
Wow, hitting it 230 off the tee with a 5 iron? That is some serious length. When you hit your driver pure was it going 350?

Holy cow, what's your secret? That's a long 5 iron!
Even though I carry one, I think that the 60* wedge is overrated. The answer that most amateurs have around the green is "more loft" but can't hit a lob wedge properly. I have been using my LW less and less. I like my three wedges, I just think that too many amateurs think that they need a 60*.
I'm going to say tall people. I know it don't fit what the op had in mind, but tall people suck. They are simply a waste of time and do nothing but tear up the course because their swing is too long to keep track of, so half the time they either dig or play army golf. Tall people should be banned from the course! "End of rant"
