My go-to club is my 7 iron. It is the club (along with my driver) that I have the most confidence hitting in all situations. I practice with it often. With all the usage, I understand how to produce the ball flight I need in any situation. Having said that, the only drawback of my 7-iron is distance. I generally hit it comfortably between 150 and 160 yards. Not very far, but my consistency outweighs its shortish distance. Having said that I posed the distance question on X (Twitter) and I was surprised by the dichotomy of responses.
