pellmell The GW is essential for me.
My Nakashima 52 used to be my favorite club. Used it everywhere from 100 yds and in even when the 56 might have been better. I haven't really liked a GW since. I feel like I rarely use mine now. That said I don't feel like I use my 8-P at my course much either . I feel like I am wearing out 60*, 7, 6, 5h though. The shift in clubs from getting older and shorter I guess.
