Irons only competition

[Deleted member 18121]

Hi all

Going to do my first competition at my "new" club in February...it'll be my first comp since May 2013.

Checked out the sign up sheet and it turns out it's an irons only comp....3-PW + wedges (I'm assuming they allow a putter!)..... Thinking about it already my course will get infinitely harder as you need to be a big hitter to get around.

Anyone else done this? Was it fun or just hard work?

Cheers

Sounds like a bit of fun during the winter months. At least it'll not be a counter so go on and have some fun and enjoy it.

You might be surprised how much the improved accuracy helps. Assuming you dont have a stinker....

Never heard of that before but I'd enjoy that , it will be like playing a different course.

Sounds fun !! Good luck and play well. Some of our old boys wouldnt like this comp, they have more woods and hybrids than irons!!

That'll be a bit of a bugger for those who's iron sets start at 5

Mine starts with a 4i....which realistically goes 180-185. Going to make things tough!

Sounds fun have a good time and let all of us on here know how you get on, I for one would be very interested.

We have a one club and putter comp coming up, not for me, fortunately away anyway. Have played plenty of 3 club and putter which are ok. Enjoy yours, you might find you score better than with a full set.

I'd love this. Hit my 3 iron really well and straight. Nae luck for anyone with loads of those pesky hybrids.

No 1 or 2 irons allowed?

Sounds pretty much how I played any competitive golf for the latter part of last summer, 3 iron off the tee plenty enough to get me around our 6600yd course, albeit made a few of the par 5s unreachable

Into a head wind yes :lol:

I reckon that'd be a lot of fun. Might suggest it to the club.
