In our forums, our members have been discussing the best setups for high handicappers. WRXer ‘SkrappyHacker1’ kicks off the thread with his current setup:
“Current set up:
10.5° driver
16° 3w
4-PW game improvement irons
50, 56 RTX 4 wedges
Putter
I’m thinking about switching my 4, 5 and 6 irons to hybrid style irons like the Wilson Launch Pads. Good idea to help my game?”
And our members have been sharing their advice in our forums.
Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.
- boggyman: “Keep your driver and fairway, then 4-SW in the Launch Pads. You’ll thank me later. Stupid easy to hit. Then play golf and enjoy being out on the course.”
- herkyjerk: “I shoot mid to high 80’s and don’t even carry a 5 iron. Hybrids and woods and clunky things are your friend. Make peace with that, and the game will be much more fun. I have buddies that try to hit forged blades and 4 irons and 70x shafts, and I beat them half the time.”
- sociojeje: “Some people just don’t hit hybrid well. If you hit your wood well, then probably you are good with hybrid though. Buy one hybrid first (probably 4; 22-24 range?), then see if you like it.”
