I love higher lofted woods but taylormade build their fairway woods with to strong of lofts.
My cobra 7 adjusts to 24*.
The 9 wood is 25.5* up to 27*
Callaway 13 wood is 31*.
It’s not supposed to replace a 5 iron comparing the loft is not relevant it’s the length of the shaft size of head and loft combined.
There are several factors that determine how far a club will hit a golf ball. One of those factors that many of us forget is the weight of the club. A heavier head will hit the ball farther. Which is why your 7 or 9 wood can hit the ball farther than an iron with equivalent loft.
Thank you. Your point makes sense. It comes to the distance of other clubs. But maybe for senior golfer it might be a good option. 👍🏻👍🏻😊
I added the Ping 430 9 wood to my bag and have not looked back at the 5 iron woes. It stops like a cat and has really helped with the approach shots to elevated fronts on the greens where I play. Nearly every hole has an elevated front slope, which makes for steep uphill wedge shots. the 9 wood has allowed me to attack the pin, or at least try for the middle of the green. I look forward to playing with this club more often since I only recently added this to my bag.
I love my old 2007 Callaway Big Bertha 9 wood . Great for long par 3s. So easy to hit. I can carry mine over 170 yds with superb height and a dodgy shoulder
Andy. I don’t worry about the stigma attached to any club. I play golf to enjoy myself. I’d much rather see a ball fly through the air with a 9 wood than duff an iron. I carry a chipper too for when my wedges are playing up 😳
i went looking for a 7 wood, loved them, I saw this 9 wood in the used bin and tried it, it was nice off the matt. I went back 2 weeks later saw it still in the bin but marked with a new lower price…. Anyway… It's the bet club in my bag. Replaces my Srixon 4 iron great from 190 – 210 out. Great action off the face. Don't worry about your buddies telling you it's a club ment for girls. Scored my first Eagle at my club….
Love the video….
Very well done. Thank you.
I have both 7&9 woods in my bag. Long irons are too one dimensional and hard to get elevation. I think people need to stop worrying about others opinion. Try the high loft wood and let stats speak not opinion.
I have a 4 wood at 16.5 and am considering a 7 wood at 21 degree to replace my 3 hybrid. I am 60 and swing at 85 and hope the 7 wood carries 150.
My four wood is the easieyclub I have ever hit, the 7 wood in early tests is just as easy.
9 wood is amazing for long par 3s 190 – 200 and second shot par 5's. I haven't kept track but id I had to guess, probably saves me 3 – 4 strokes a round on 18. Especially on the par 3 190+. There are round where I stick it 10 feet away and it just adds a ton of confidence to my game. Not to mention getting a birdie off that hole doesn't hurt either…..
My 9 wood replaces my 4 iron and carries 225, 230. The 9 wood flys higher and lands softer, it works fantastic for me. I got the paradym 9 wood
I love my 7,9 and 11 woods. I would not get rid of those woods except maybe for newer but same loft
If you would've hit a 7 wood off the tee, would that 9 wood got you on the green in two? If not, hit a 5 wood off the tee. Point is, with today's technology in fairway woods and rescue woods, it really minimizes the number of irons I carry.
I just started with a 7 wood and going to get a 9 wood as well hit it much better than long irons and very easy to hit soft and grip down shots
Just ordered a Stealth 2 9 wood. It will go with my 16 1/2 HL 4 wood and 7 wood.
Vijay Singh used one all those years ago and was his favourite club I have used one for the past 15yrs and it is so versatile.
Thanks Andy for your videos…going tomorrow to order my ping 430 max 7 and 9 wood.
Great information…I’m in that zone now where my clubhead speed has slowed a tad over the years and after two hip replacements (I’m 54). I still play players irons because my ball striking is fine…I play a few sets (T150/T200 combo set & MP 221/223 combo set). I carry from 5 iron on…I have a driver, 3 wood and 5 wood at the top end…I need something in the middle and have never hit hybrids well…The hardest thing is most stores that even have 7/9 woods, carry them with either senior flex or ladies shafts in them…so, hard to get a demo to hit…only way is to do a fitting, which I don’t prefer. I know my numbers and my needs, so would prefer they just let me hit it on my own in a hitting bay…still searching for a store to do that in…
