Keeping with your golf analogy. Most golfers aren't equally proficient with every club in the bag. Golfers have to play every shot while horse bettors can sit out the shots that might call for a high draw with a 4 iron when the best they can do is hit a low cut. But your point is certainly correct, a player shouldn't try to hit a 7 iron 260 yards just because it is his favorite club.
