Let me start by saying that when Golf Monthly’s commissioning editor first approached me to write an article to find out what I would score over 18 holes using just a 7-iron and putter, I initially thought, ‘what a ridiculous waste of an afternoon when I could be playing a proper round of golf with my full set of clubs’.
For that reason I kept putting it off until I was child-free when my son went away on a school trip and I had my evenings free. I asked my dad to come along to mark my card to witness my scores and take some pictures of my attempt.
