For the start of the season, my bag will probably look a little like this:

Do you find that 54° - 60° wedge gap works for you? I have the same set up, but i'm still not 100% sold on it.

Yes, the 60* is only to get out of the bunkers or around the greens. I can pretty much do what I want with my 54* wedge but will nevertheless manage not to get too close to the green. Whenever possible, I like to keep the ball at more than 80 yds from the green. On short par 4s, I won't use the driver to get too close. Even though I can hit the ball quite long, I prefer not to have those 40-60 yds shots...these are though for the touring pros, just imagine for poor mortals like us...

Well I now have $800 FGO credit so there might be some changes afterall I am eyeing up a Newport at the store right now. Also hit a G10 driver, but since it is only mid March it is too early to buy a big stick.
I picked up a Snake Eyes Fire Forged 400 CC 11* driver with a Pro Launch Blue in it for a song out at the store about a month ago. This driver will be in the bag at the start of the season to see how it plays. If I don't like it you will find it in the BST section of this forum
I should add a 60* 12* bounce wedge, but Srixon doesn't make one with that bounce and loft
I did well during the big sale, I did not buy anything other than a Sabona. Great restraint!
My opinions are my own, I do not follow others.

It's a good thing you called the addition of the Scotty when you said the bag was done earlier.
Not fat anymore. Need to get better at golf now!

I replaced my YES Tracy II today with a Scotty Cameron Newport 2.5. I had not been using the Yes a lot last year. I lost my feel for it and went most of the summer and fall with my Rosa Fontana CGB.
I need to extend the shaft an inch on the Scotty. Currently it is 32", I will go to 33" and take the Black Ping Man grip off (Lord knows I do not want a putter that looks similiar to the one Woods uses . Indio knows!)
I did drool over a set of Titleist 735CM's today. I might go back out and hit some balls with those sticks. New in the wrapper, $599.00My opinions are my own, I do not follow others.

no change in my bag, but I'm getting everything not new regripped and cutting my putter down a bit. If that doesn't do it I'll be back on the putter hunt.

Maybe you and Geoff should get together and do a bag shakeup. Based on some other posts he's well on his way to fulfilling my prediction of changing his bag before the season starts.
As for me, I got bored and changed the paintfill in the score lines on my backup driver to red! It looks dangerous!Not fat anymore. Need to get better at golf now!

I blame it on the boredom of the winter. Adding clubs makes me feel closer to playing. Too many nights surfing golfwrx and ebay.
I got a fever. And the only prescription is more golf equipment.
