re: 3 club challenge. What clubs are you taking

I'm not sure that driver isn't the better choice than 3 wood:

Driver will provide a major advantage on the par 4s (the majority of holes) being significantly longer off the tee. Given what we know from analytics (decade etc), people score better the closer they are to the hole and there is rarely a good reason not to hit driver from the tee. So you are gaining a big advantage on 10 holes.

I could see the argument that 3 wood gives you an advantage on the 4 par 5s, but it's unlikely you are going to reach in 2 with 2 3 woods, so at best its likely only a small advantage with 3w/3w/wedge vs Driver/7i/wedge(or maybe 7i).

I would go driver, mid iron (probably 7 or 8, depending on the length of par 3s) and a 52.
