taking some inspiration from you 23_lw, I played 18 last night using only my 4h, 7i, 55* SW and my putter. I shot 40/42 for an 82! Pretty close to what I would normally shoot using all 14 of my clubs haha. My stats were actually almost identical to what I normally shoot. 8/14 fairways (not real good considering I hit my hybrid off of most tees), 5/18 greens (a bit lower than normal) and 30 putts. My GIR suffered because I was leaving myself these in between shots of 125-150.

I think when I do this again I will change a few things: First, I would have a smaller gap in my irons, probably go AW/7i or PW/6i. Next, I'd probably hit 6/7i off the tee more. Most of the holes are between 325 and 380, and a hard 6/7i off the tee would leave me with a fairly normal 6/7i into the green. Doing this definitely opened my eyes to the versatility of each club, but also showed my inability to hit certain types of shots, specifically shorter knockdown and punchy type of shots. Its clear to me now that I'd rather stomp on a shorter club than baby a longer club.

I'd recommend this to anyone thinking about it though, it was a lot of fun to try and figure out how to go about each shot.
