Posted by: user106178 | Fri 16th Dec 2011 16:44 | Last Reply

I,m playing in a fun comp on Sunday with only 3 clubs allowed, not 3 clubs and a putter as in some comps. Which 3 would you use??

Id Agree with John. (now theres something I didnt think Id ever write. ;-))

Rescue/Hybrid can be used as a putter. 8/7 iron and the PW.

In that case swap the PW for a SW. Either or should do the trick though.

Hard luck Dave. I would have used 3 wood (can be used as a putter/bump and runner from 20 yds. 5 iron, from 1/2 shot to full shot range covers 130-200 and 9 iron from 130 yds in, you can open the club face if bunkered.

Dave, I've got our 3 club just after Xmas.  Over the years I have tried putting with irons, hybrids and woods but have come to the conclusion that as somewhere between 1/2 - 1/3 of your shots are putts you might as well the correct club for the job - a putter.  I'll probably add to this a hybrid and a 7 iron.

I am with you mr Ley but i would probably go with the 5 iron rather than the 6.
