O'M NOT A BIG HYBRID CLUB GUY, SAYS JACK NICKLAUS

The range of clubs Jack Nicklaus will have in his bag at this weekend#s Father-Son Challenge compared with what he would
have had in it when he was in his prime is interesting.
 Nicklaus said this week that when he played on the US PGA Tour he carried a driver and a 3-wood, a 1-iron through a 9-iron, pitching wedge, sand wedge and putter
"Now I've got a driver, a 3-wood, a 4-wood and a 5-wood," he said.
"I'm not a big hybrid guy, although I'm playing with one right now and I took the 2-iron out of the bag. That's pretty much where I am. I'm usually a 3-iron through 9-iron, pitching wedge and sand wedge. I don't know if that's 14 or 15 (clubs), but it'll be 14 when I tee it up."
No other player hit more memorable shots with a 1-iron than Nicklaus, a club that featured in three of his majors -- the 1972 U.S. Open at Pebble Beach, the 1975 Masters and the 1967 U.S. Open at Baltusrol.
But there were times when he benched the 1-iron.
"At Augusta I carried a 1-iron a lot, and sometimes I'd put in maybe a 4- or 5-wood, simply because you needed some elevation to stop it on the greens and some of the lies you played," Nicklaus said.
