I saw a photo of Ernie Els bag yesterday. He had driver, (2) fairway woods, (2) hybrids, 5-pw, 52 and 60* wedges and his putter. This apparently is the setup that works for him. His longest iron is a 5 iron. He is a tour star with 40% of his bag made up of woods. I see you guys with 3i in their bags and two woods that can't break 90. That tells me their bags aren't set for success.
Is your bag set for success? Or does it follow a trend of what is popular? The goal of the bag is to support your strengths on the course. But I find with a great deal of golfer their bags magnify their flaws.
I see guys carrying clubs that they feel they can hit but in reality have no business hitting. I always want to tell them to switch for a hybrid or grab the 56* instead of the 60*. We as players tend to only remember the good shots with a certain club and forget the 100s of poor shots we hit. If we focused on what was broken our games might reach the next level, what ever that may be.
If your bag isn't set for success, then lessons and fittings won't help. Is your bag set for success?
