My question is, have you ever taken the driver out of the bag and played a round with your 3 wood as your longest club? If so, what was the result?

My prelude is below.

I know it's early in the season here in Wisconsin, but my driver has been costing me a few strokes per round. I'm wondering if it's costing me more strokes compared to how many scoring opportunities it presents. My normal driver distance is between 250-280, and my 3 wood distance is 220-240. I don't play from the tips, and usually play from between 6300-6700 yards. I am seriously contemplating leaving the driver in the car for the next round, and letting the 3 get the starting position. My 3 is much more predictable, and I really think it may shave a few strokes off my game. If my assumptions are correct, maybe I'll leave the driver out until I have worked on it enough at the range to make it more reliable.

I'll post my follow up after the next round.
