U must be an awesome golfer ... A carry distance of 180 m with a 7i ...  Machiam like a Tour Pro ...

Can only hit 7 iron well. Thereafter follow by L wedge.

I take out my hybrid and Chiong! My first coach once told me, in golf if u have 1 good shot for 18 holes, it's good enough to make ur day. I'm not a pro so I just wanna golf for enjoyment.... Some more I don't bet...

Anyway, most of the time I duff or top my hybrid... So my 1 good out of 18 holes is still a dream... Ha ha ha

As long no hazard, no matter what distance, I'll go for it!
Ended up in the bunker? Nvm, just bom it 5 feet to the hole.

I guess for most social/amateur players like myself, it really depends on the mood of the day. After all, someone who's more gangho and on form for the day can see his 3h or 4h find the green, where else another who chose to play safe may still mis-hit and get into more troublesome. Most of the time, I wld say go for it and use the club tt can reach tt distance when u usually practise at the range and be positive when setting up. At most just hit 1 more time if shit happens. Haha

My thought is that if you have a club that can reach 180m, why not use it??? Otherwise no point carrying it, might as well carry only the clubs that you can hit well. If ball goes into the front or back bunker, then good opportunity to practice bunker shots. No pain no gain right?!! Reckon social games are good opportunities to build up your confidence on the course and reinforce what you have practiced on the driving range.

Depends on the wind direction and also the pin location. I would chiong to hit it to the green. Prob use a 4 or 5 iron to land and allow it to roll to the pin!

on my limit for a 7 iron - may hit an easier 6 iron.  Would depend how I am feeling and playing on the day.

I'll use a 5 wood..
