    YankeeJim:

    danohi50:

    Tiff, I did'nt even think of dropping the 3 wood in return for my 64...that m,ight be a really good option for all but the longest courses.

    I did it after I read this post to see. At CCC , so far, the 231 yd par 3 is a problem. You have to play for par with the 3i up the middle or choke your driver. (The R11 with 4 moves down does pretty good-was able to get it to 12 feet once.) The par 5s turn into mid iron approaches but are still good birdie opps. Callaway balls may change this a bit.

    Once you get past the no-3W problem it is really nice to know you have every single scenario covered from 220 yards to 6 yards, any lie. Low winds makes this doable but I doubt High winds will make it practical.

    Prefer to carry the R-11 3W with the Burner 2.0s....PW is 125 and punches 108, also carry the 100 yd Callaway  (punches 84), the 75 yd ping wedge (punches 62) and the 50 yd Satin (punches 41) ...thus I have the following default wedge shots, including the punch shots

     

    125, 108, 100, 84, 75, 62, 50 and 41...works for me and allows me to carry the 3W...H

    I agree, Harve. I stopped monkeying around and took ALee's advice.  That set wedge punch does do a good job of filling the gap from 125 to 100. :-)
