when we hit the par-3's I'll be hitting a club stronger than them to reach the green. If I try to match someone with my irons I always end up overswinging and playing even worse.

You know, I noticed something along those lines that's interesting...

More than once (but not more than once during a round), someone has asked someone else in the group (could be me, could be others) what club they're playing on a par-3. Why? I mean, I'm a short hitter (e.g., while others play an 8 iron, i'm playing a 7, or maybe even a 6). So they ask what I'm playing and I tell them, then they play whatever feels right to them anyway. Is it just to make themselves feel better about outhitting someone? I don't think it's that they don't know what club to use. Just seems a little... odd to me.
