48, 54, 58 for me. The 48 is a 2021 T200 gap wedge, 54 is a Vokey SM8 54 S, and, the 58 is a SM5 K. I have a 52F SM6, but, it seemed a bit close to my 48, so, I went with a 54, which, I find to quite versatile around the green.

The clip is used to adjust the tension of the stand mechanism. You could try contacting Wilson Golf to see if replacement parts are available, or, if the bag isn't that old, it may be covered under warranty.

I have avoided Taylormade drivers for a while, but, I did try the QI10, and, directionally, it seemed to set extremely well for me. I will need to test the std and Max a bit more to verify my first session wasn't a fluke.

As a STZ-220 owner, I may be more interested in the price drop for the STZ and STX 230.

With Titleist irons, you could consider getting fit for a Titleist hybrid, where they would help you get your distance dialed in. The Ping G430 22 hybrid could be fine, too, but, you would need to experiment a bit, as it could come close to your driving iron. You might need the 26, and, lower the loft. Definitely, try before you buy.

I wear progressives most of the time. I have single vision computer glasses, and, single vision glasses for golf (I actually prefer contacts for playing golf). With that said, if you need to do any reading while wearing single vision glasses, try sliding your glasses a bit down your nose. It is an old trick my old eye doc showed me.

I have some old neoprene Club Glove iron covers. They do reduce bag chatter, and, can protect the finish of your irons. They aren't the most durable, but, I mostly use them, when, my clubs are in transit.

I play all winter in wet and sometimes mushy/muddy conditions, so, low top shoes won't work (moisture comes over the top). My current shoe/boot of choice are the Adidas S2G mid-cuts - https://www.adidas.com/us/s2g-recycled-polyester-mid-cut-golf-shoes/FZ1035.html. As for being warm, if your body core is kept warm, your feet will stay warmer (wool or thermax socks for me).

I have a pair of Ecco Biom 3 Hybrid gtx, and, they have 2 layers of removeable insoles to allow for a wider width. I don't know if the shoes you tried had this feature, but, the next time you try on a pair of Ecco's, you might check if removing allows for the width you need.

Lots of golfers have switched to graphite to reduce body wear issues. I am one of them.

fwiw, my Clicgear 3.5+ wheel has, also, taken an embedded tee. I pulled the tee out, and, now, I don't see the hole, where the tee was. It has turned into dimple.

Before I retired, I played in all sorts of weather - wind, rain, but, now, I avoid the really crummy days. I play with a push cart, and, I have a rain cover for my golf bag. I use an umbrella attached to my cart to help keep me dry. I have Goretex rain gear, jacket (Zero Restriction & Sunderland), pants (Zero Restriction) and, hat (Outdoor Research Seattle Sombrero). If it is light rain, I find I can get away with water resistant pants. I have a couple of short sleeve rain jackets (Ping), but, being in the PNW, if it is raining, it is cool enough to wear a long sleeve jacket. For the non-summer season, I find regular golf shoes will let water over the top, so, I go with a high top golf boot. My current ones are Adidas S2G midcuts, which, I wore last winter. I do have Ecco Biom 3 GTX hybrids, once, the ground firms up a bit. I, also, wear wool sox, but, I do that almost all year round.

No preference, though, I did buy a 10,000 bag of 2 1/8 wooden tees from a Golfsmith closing sale. fwiw, I will use plastic tees, if I find them, since, they are more durable.

I will sweat some, but, to mitigate the discomfort I wear mostly hydrophobic materials (ie. avoid cotton, cotton blends). When it is warm I wear my Uniqlo Airism or Ex Officio boxer briefs, plus some sort of quick drying shorts. Adidas Ultimate365 shorts are great with a water repellant finish, and, quick drying.

After every round, I use an air compressor at the golf course to clean the soles of my shoes, that is, also, when I check for spike wear. I replace individual spikes if they are worn out. I have had a cleat caddy for a while, but, if I run across a stubborn cleat, I will use my tongue and groove pliers (more grip and leverage) to twist it out.

Cut: +5 High score: 86

I don't have one, but I have seen ads for stroller fans on Amazon that look like they could help in warm weather.

+1 - it is your personal portable shade

No go to brand for me, though, most of the pants I have are from Uniqlo.

My fairway woods(Ping 425), my hybrids(Titleist 818), my driver(Mizuno STZ 220) does not match either. It is a good idea to get fit, but, if you don't have to get fit, at least try before you buy. Your local golf shop should have demo's for you to try. And, you might want to consider a 4 wood vs a 3 wood for little more versatility.

I have 3.5+. I always remove the cup holder and store it in the storage compartment before folding it up. As for a XL cup holder, the Sun Mountain XL cup holder can be used. Sun Mountain has a few Clicgear compatible accessories. The Push Cart mitts are great for winter golf, and, I would recommend them, if you play in cold weather. And, btw, the folded up Clicgear 3.5+ fits nicely in a Ikea Fratka large bag, if you want to keep the mess from you golf cart contained. As for tipping over, it can happen for any push cart, especially, on moderate to severe side hills.

Kjus, and, Galvin Green make nice stuff. I have Kjus Dexter, along with an assortment of other rain gear, but, since, retiring, I hardly ever use my golfing rain gear. I use to buy by rain gear on closeout to save money, so, all of my stuff is several years old.

June 19 is a Holiday, so, hopefully, they contact you today. If you bought your clubs locally, you might work through them. It is odd to see paint chipping there on the shaft, from the picture of your bag, it looks like a contact spot from one of your shorter clubs.

I am in PNW, so, I can get away with wearing cotton/poly blends. I have a bunch of solid color polo's from Uniqlo, that, I bought on sale. The nicest polo, I have is from Kjus - Father's Day promotion.

I have a 3.5+. It is a tank, but, in a good way. The Clicgear Mitts are great for the colder months. One thing I would add, would be to check the tightness of the nuts and bolts. I discovered a missing nut and bolts.
