Interesting topic, been thinking about this as well. More curiour about peope's lofts for their choice of wood. Seems 21-22 is about standard, of course, good to have adjustments to gap out better.

 

Recently struggle a lot with my driver consistency and my 3w is practically a driver at 12 degrees for 250-280yards. 5w is down to 15* for 230-250 yards.

I'm considerring to drop the driver and gap between mt 4iron with a 7w. I'd be going trying to fill the 220 marker, since my 4i can often come up short, depending on the contact and strike.

 

I really like the Cobra F9 Tour version woods with their front weighting. considering getting another 5-6w and put it at 19*, or go for a lady version head and bring it down from 22.5 to 21*

Also try to weigh up the difference from a 7w to a 2i. not sure which one would be better from (thicker bladed) rough.

I pulled the trigger on another 3-4 wood and decided to use my 5 as a "7":

Cobra F9 Tour Fairway 5-6, set to 20*

ALDILA TOUR GREEN ATX 75 X

Driver SS: ~115, ~270 carry

7w carry: ~225

Length: 40.25"

found an old 915F ladies 7 wood cheap on ebay.  Used that head on the following setup

 

915F 21deg

Diamana D+ whiteboard 80g stiff tipped 2.5 inches

Driver ss 110

7w carry 225-230

Length 41.5"

 

It been my best club in the bag, granted I play a very short tight course most weekends.  I am considering getting a stiffer shaft for it.  I also have a callaway Apex UW 21deg that will take a run at the 7wood spot.  

[txgolfer45]

Callaway Epic Flash

Driver SS around 88 to 90

Project X Green Evenflo R at 65 grams

Lamkin Crossline grip

Std length from Callaway

 

It's my 185-190 club.

Titleist TS2 4W and 7W, both with Tensei Blue AV 65 shafts. 

I play the 4W at 42" and the 7W at 41".  The 7W is my 190-200 yard club.

 

[Nateyeight]

PING G425 Max 20.5*

Stock Alta CB 65 shaft (looking to upgrade)

Driver swing speed ~95-100mph

7 Wood Carry distance ~180-190

Length 42"

Fits in between my 23* TS2 hybrid and PING G425 Max 5 wood. I don't carry a 3 wood as a high handicapper with a slower swing.

TSi2 4W and 7W, both with GD fairway wood shafts.

Using a Mavrik SubZero with Ventus Blue 8x @ 42”. Driver so is around 103 mostly. Carry the 7/wood 220. Really like it for par 3s in that range.

Cobra F9 7-8 wood set at 23.5 degrees, Tensei av raw blue 75TX playing 42.5".  It is my go to straight and soft landing 205-210 club.

I use The Perfect Club 347.

21* of loft but only 39.25" in length.

Launches lower than a tradition 7w, flies 200-210y for me which is basically a 3i/4i replacement.

Way easier to control and great out of rough or sand as well.

I tried other 7w clubs from Ping and Callaway but find they fly too high for me.

F9 cobra with a diamana blue 80TX is the one I should have kept.    Now that I have the bag completely figured out.  The super high launch would be perfect for my needs now. I love the hybrid I have. But.  I have never hit hybrids high. I tend to deloft   them.  I can hit absolute low bullets if I want.  But struggle to  launch one super high , say  over trees etc. i added a great 3 iron , so a low hybrid is kind of redundant now.  Wish I had kept that 7 wood.

 Yes.  Very similar to the one I just mentioned.  Really really easy to hit head.

G425 Max 20.5* with Diamana BF 80g Stiff 

[dmeeksDC]

I have a Cobra F8 with an Aldila RIP Phenom 85 and a Callaway Epic Flash with a Diamana Kal’il 80. Both are excellent. The low torque shafts help in a 7 wood which is why I still game the Phenom. Tight and on target. Just built the Callaway. Like the shape of the EF 7 wood.

TSi2 21* D2 setting (20.25*/1.5*up)

ventus red 9x tipped 2”

plays 41.5”

Always have a smile when this one is pulled from the bag
