7 wood?

[aenemated]

My TS2 7W is maybe my favorite club in the bag. I get around 200-210 off the tee - playing it forward, it'll roll out nicely. Play it back a little in the fairway and it'll launch high and stop super quick. Great out of the rough as it just smashes the grass down and won't twist like an iron and doesn't lose much distance.

 

It's also great for long runners under tree limbs on days my driver isn't cooperating. Just choke down and put a smooth half swing on it - it's like a little underhanded toss.

 

It's just versatile as hell. So glad I got on the high-lofted wood train.

Have a 22 degree cleveland launcher 7 wood. Longest tenured club in the bag that i hit over my 4/5 iron when i need something to land softly. Id say find a head you like looking at and fits your eye and then make sure you get a lower spin shaft so it does t launch and stay spinning up there

**In the wind...** when October rolls around, and the winds get higher and the rough thinner, my 7W goes on vacation in favor of the 3H.

 

As for shafts other than Senior flex, where have you been looking? I regularly see R - and _occasionally_ S flex - in Callaway and Tour Edge 7Ws, and Cobra 7-8Ws.

I’m 67, 90 mph on a good day. I play 5,7,9,11 Hybrids. Also 6,7,fli-hi hybrids.

Us old guys can’t hit shiny clubs anymore and I don’t miss them at all.

I'm 64 and love my 7 woods. I have 2. A K15 23* and a G400 20.5*. They replace my 4 iron in both cases in my cart bag and walking bag. I also play 5 wood, 7 wood, 4 hybrid, 5 hybrid and 6 hybrid. The longest club in the cart bag is my 8 iron.

You have to watch the loft. My 4,5 and 6 K15 hybrids actually replace my 5,6 and 7 irons in my Mizuno 800s. They equate to the same loft yet the number on the club is different. All the woods and hybrids launch much higher and go the same distance as the iron it replaces. They hold the greens every time. btw I'm a 9 handicap and still don't launch the long irons high enough to get them to do what I want.
