Club advice

I'm after a 7 wood. As a female player I struggle to find reviews about ladies clubs. I'm tall and have a Ping G410 SFT 5 wood which I love to play from the tee. I'm a 22 hcp and need something that goes a bit further from the fairway (which I'm rarely playing from, but I have hope!). Can anyone recommend anything? Please don't tell me to go for a fitting as I've been for several and they hand me whatever ladies club they have in stock and say that's fine!! ? So I'd be happy to have a go and if I like it I will buy from the shelf (if that's the right term??). Thanks in advance. ?

Golf clubs don’t care about gender. A man’s club will work just the same as any targeted towards a lady golfer.
It’ll depend on what you can handle weight wise.

Thank you so should I just look at reviews for mens clubs? I got fitted into a senior shaft mens 5 wood and I love it but the mens 5 wood is the same loft as a woman's 3 wood so I was thinking a mens 7 wood might be a good idea from the grass as a distance club. I'm always after the next fix to try to get my hcp down! ? ???

Unless the clubs are specifically for Women, like Ping GLE or Callaway Reva, the heads are usually the same as those used in Men's clubs.
If you like the 410 5 wood then you could do a lot worse than find a 7 wood with the same shaft..
The SFT models are 2° weaker than the Plus so the 7 wood will be 22.5°.

Thank you, for taking the time. ?

Consider a hybrid. I have a 3 and a 5 hybrid which I use from tee, fairway and rough. Mine are TaylorMade sim 2 max but I believe the ping g425 are very good.

Pings own brand graphite shafts in men's generally tend to play on the soft side of regular so a men's regular may work well for you.

My daughter plays so called mens clubs and hits them lovely. Her clubs are off the shelf (irons only) her 7 wood is a Benross tri mass which is quite old now but a fairway finder. I reckon you can pick one up quite cheap. New is not always the best

My most significant club to date, for hitting from the semi is the Callaway Heaven wood. With its 'launch' factor can go as far as a 3 wood. Doesn't always happen but then I can say that about many of my clubs. However, is very memorable when it does!!

I didn't know that, I might have a go to see how it feels. Thanks ?

I have got quite a few ex demo as I'm not too bothered about the clubs being brand new. I've heard of the Ben Ross so I might see if I can find one to try. Thanks ?

Plenty on Ebay at good prices. Well made, 'value for money' brand and even more so 'on the bay'.

I'm watching a couple but scared of buying a fake!! I bought my Sim max irons on ebay and they are great but it was from a club Pro and I checked him out on the Internet first!! Thanks I will keep looking as I believe its a good time of year to buy.
