Anybody got a 7 wood ? I have been testing a 20 deg baffler and hitting it 200 yards and straight, would probably replace my 22 hybrid, overall a nice club
Anybody got experience of a 7 wood

Used to carry one years ago. An old Callaway copy (Trident I think) that cost about £10. Loved it and was pretty consistent from about 180 yards. In the end it snapped and I never replaced it as my long irons had improved and I didn't have that gap in my bag any more. Stuck an extra wedge in

Fish certainly has!
And a mate who doesn't get on with hybrids uses one rather effectively - 215-230 or so! Animal!

Yep. Callaway X2 Hot 7 Wood and I love it. Very useful from the tee on long Par 3's and easy to hit off the deck whether it be fairway or rough. I think for me it works better than the equivalent hybrid would do due to the increased shaft length and subsequent swing speed. I hit it about 170-180 and nice and high - a beaut of a club

I would never be without mine. 150-180 yards

I used to carry one for one tee shot on our course but don't use it anymore.
Mine was an Adams strong 7 wood with a metal shaft for the first 6 inches which gave it a really stiff tip on the shaft.

Yep. Callaway X with a steel shaft. Great for long par 4's and getting down near the green safely on par 5's. So easy to hit.

I also have one of those. 24 deg though. doesn't go far enough for my liking. pretty simple to launch though.

Is 20 degree really a 7 wood? My 5 wood is 19

The old gentlemans persuader. It's been crossing my mind for a while. However I'm pleased with how my bag is set up and haven't got room and don't really want to drop the hybrid for the holes I have at my home club

Yes cobra baffler trail+ 20 degree, nice club very easy to hit
Great club :smirk:
I foolishly got rid of mine and went for a Fli-Hi 4 iron (now for sale) but have now reverted back, great for long par 3's and approaches into raised greens as you can come in high.

My 7w is 22 degrees, its the perfect compliment to my strong 3w (13*) and 4w (17*)

I've got a nice Cleveland 7 wood.
I carry a 4 iron but can't hit it for toffee so will use the 7 wood when needs require.
Par 3's of around 180 yards or so, or if I want to try to get the ball up a bit higher to clear a hazard short of the green.
Also handy if the ball is sitting down a bit in the semi.

Slightly off topic but why do the same numbered clubs have different lofts its very confusing.
I have 2 x 3w's which are 13 & 17 degree's, 1 is strong and the other week but both state 3w on the sole! No different I suppose with the 7w's mentioned.

Same as anything. Most clubs will have traditional lofts then a few degrees either way.
