I'm not sure if the penny is finally dropping for me or I have worked out what clubs would or wouldn't work for me.
Ive had everything. Blade, cavity, fairways, low hybrids, high lofted hybrids, high bounce , low bounce wedges, 8.5 degree drivers, reg, stiff, x. Closed face woods, open faced woods, chopped an inch off a shaft here, got the lie changed on my putter there.
I view all these as learning curves. When I go to buy a new club I know now pretty much what I like, what I can use and what works best with my swing. I would not have this knowledge if I went to a fitter and bought what he told me. I know how different wedges react to different ground conditions and when best to play a certain shot because I've tried them all to a certain extent.
Its been fun along the way too. I've slowed down my purchases these days. I'm either getting more picky or starting to find it hard to better what I am using. You can never have too many putters.
Sorry Gaz, 10 years of chopping and changing and you'll always do it.
If its not the gear changes for you, its the swing changes.
Instead of having every shot in the bag, its sometimes better to have just 4-5 repeatable ones and hone them. IMHO.
You'll always be a tinkerer, you little tinker.
