looking for a club for tight holes off the tee

Serious question......what sort of members course has a 200 yard carry over heavy rough? Must be unplayable for the seniors

Erm mine isn't so bad but put it like this you will roll back down the hill and lose at least 50% of what you initially got. They have introduced blue tees now, but no one plays them.

On another note I am surprised how many don't think their 5 wood would make it, in fact I feel like I have bragged but the honest to god's truth is I would be clear. My swing speed with a driver is 98-102mph my 5 wood is 96mph (loft is 18 degrees) my smash factor is 1.43-1.47 .... Hopefully that will indicate that I am not shining you all on .

my 913f at 19 degree flies about 230yds, in substitute to a 13/14 degree 3w. my 21 degree 913h with ~ 1" shorter shaft does about 215 yds.

Tho IMHO to get best carrying flight you've got to be hitting with a wee divot, ruffling of turf. If I sweep I get too much height and loose a bit of carry.

I have seen you hit your Sunday best down wind over 200 yards Gordon.

I would clear it comfortably with either my 20degree hybrid or mph4 18 deg driving iron. So depending on which one I had in the bag that day I would hit one of those.

I would use three wood

I use a 4 rescue or a 5 Iron depending on weather conditions and lay out etc

i'd top it onto the ladies tee with a 4 iron, walk with said 4 iron to the ladies tee and hit from there... im bound to be 20-30 yards closer to reaching the fairway with my next shot.
