<edited July 09 to reflect my new irons>
<edited in June 10 to reflect new wedge distances & iron lofts>
I like to walk and carry my bag, but I like it light too, so I have an Ogio Vaporlite (3.5lbs). I think if I were to add a club I'd add a 5 wood or an X-Wedge (64*) or maybe a left-handed pitching wedge.
Cobra LD F Speed driver, 10.5*, R flex: 265 yds
Cobra LD 3 Wood, 15*, R flex: 235 yds
Bobby Jones hybrid, 25*, S flex: 210 yds
Taylormade Muscleback Coin-Forged irons, rifle-flighted 5.0
5 iron, 28*: 185 yds
6 iron, 32*: 172 yds
7 iron, 36*: 160 yds
8 iron, 40*: 150 yds
9 iron, 44*: 140 yds
PW, 48*: 130 yds
Taylormade RAC TP wedge: 52*: 120 yds
Taylormade RAC TP wedge: 56*: 110 yds
Taylormade RAC TP wedge: 60*: 100 yds
Yes Valerie putter: 34"
On the rare occasions I need to hit it 225yds I just grip down on the 3 wood. I can also play the hybrid back in my stance (i.e. deloft it) and hit it 215+.

I carry all 14 clubs. I like to walk, I have a nike cart bag and pull cart.
Cobra Speed LD driver, 9', stiff shaft
Tommy Armour evo, 3 wood, reg flex
Nike LDS, 5 wood, steel shaft reg flex
nike CPR 22' hybrid
nike CPR 26' hybrid
nike CPR irons, 5-pw
Cobra S, 56' Sand Wedge
titleist vokey spin milled, 60'Lob Wedge
Oddessy white steel blade putter.
I've gone back in forth with putter lately. I've been through 3 diffrent oddessy putters and think I finally found one that I can work with. I'm thinking about taking my 3 wood out of my bag and adding another wedge, I love my wedges and I'm deadly inside of 100 yards.

I carry nine clubs. I've condensed to save weight (I also walk).
Driver
3w
56 degree wedge
PW
9i
7i
6i
5i
Putter
I hit my 8 no further than my 9, and I never hit my 3 or 4 very well. Soon I'll add a Hybrid 3 or 4.

they are the all tools of the game.
I carry all 14 and they all have and know there jobs.
I use each one wisely and can expect there outcomes.
to go without one would only mean I would be giving up a spot
on the course to make a mistake, No 14 is good and I use them all...

I carry 14 but only use 13. I hate my 3-wood and it hates me right back. I used it 2 times this month (10 or so rounds) and it failed me once. I tricked it into doing what I wanted the other time.

I carry 14 clubs. I do not use them all in every round, but all will see usage every 2-3 rounds. I would love to carry a couple additional clubs, but I wouldn't be able to decide which to pull. I could probably carry 16 or 17 and be quite happy.

We're only allowed 14? Does a putter outside the bag count as a club?
Walk and carry with all 14...
Don't use them all unless I want to... I play the same course almost daily, but make the course play differently by using different clubs off the tee...

I'm no Matt, but I share his philosophy on the clubs. I use a sunday bag to carry my 10 clubs.I like to travel light. I hear a lot about wedges on this site but I only have one. I use it for 100 yards and in including sand. 1,3,5,7 woods and 6,7,8,9 irons and a putter. Sometimes the irons never get out of the bag. I'll go several holes Driver,7wood,pitching wedge putter.

I used to carry 14. Now carry 13 while I work out what I should get for my 14th club.
Currently carry:
1W: Ping G10 UST V2 High launch 9*
3w: Ping G10 UST V2 High launch 15.5
4i: Mizuno MX 700 Regular graphite 23*
5i: Mizuno MX 700 Regular graphite 26*
6i ~ PW: (5 clubs) Mizuno MX-950 Regular Steel
GW: 52* Mizuno MP-R Nickel Stiff Steel
SW: 56* Mizuno MP-R Nickel Stiff Steel
LW: 60* Mizuno MP-R Nickel Stiff Steel
Putter: Taylor Made Monza Spider
My 14th club? Should have been a 5w or a 3i (3 hybrid) but there is precious little distance between my 4 hybrid and my 3w. I've got plenty of wedges, no I have no idea what my 14th club will be.
