Ditch the 4

7 wood? No way. I would rather not play golf!

Gentlemans persuader.

If there had been a 'Carry on Golfing' film I'm sure this expression would be in there somewhere

3 iron is my favourite club:smirk:

I have to just ask the OP and anyone else, do you really hit a SW 100yds? I max out at 85 at a push and I dont consider myself a slouch distance wise with anything else

SW, 100 yards, nope.

My 52° gap wedge is my 100 yard club. My 58° wedge is good for about 82 yards with a stout swing. regular swing woud probably see it more high 70's.

Humble apologies, I shall re-phrase.

A seven wood is a suitable club for male golfers with limp wrists or male golfers over the age of 74.

Oh dear the site still has members with a vague knowledge of the game, go and educate yourself and you will see there has been an alternative to long irons in the shape of a 7 wood since golf began,actually your proberly better off joining a knitting forum and leave golf and golf history to real golfers.

I dropped the 4 and 5 iron and got a 4 and 5 hybrid helped me game loads

OK
If a 7 wood is so good should men use a 9 wood?

They should use whatever gets them around the course in the least number of shots. Who cares?

Not sexist..merely daft!

A guy off 2 who I occasionally play with would laugh at that comment. He doesn't get on well with Hybrids.

That's why he is off 2 if he chose proper clubs he would probably be off +1

Worked out my 4 iron is the equiv of most peoples 2 iron! i still love it though, nice option off the tee!
