Maybe a little for me but I do have a fair gap, for me it's a case I never got on with hybrids and find a 7 wood a really useful club and I can use it from tricky lies

I have a 7 TM Burner wood because I'm over 70
. But I've also had it for many years: It's a magic club. The Ping 9 wood as per my sig. is in a dark place due to misbehaviour.

Ahh closet 7 wood admirer ehtheres only one cure.......
On the hunt for a chape 5 wood. After that I will pursue a 7 wood.
I don't get the ill feeling towards 7 woods. I would play a chipper if I knew it would save me shots! :thup:

Gary, get one of the cleveland classic xl 5 woods. £50 new all over the place. I got one the other week and its a great club, almost robbery getting them brand new for that. I used the code at snainton aswell for a discount :thup:
Absolutely not important but the coolest headcover aswell......

It went into my bag when I was deep in the middle of Shanksville, I've since come out the other side (whoops, I shouldn't have said that...) but I've now formed a bit of an attachment to it.
It goes around 160 to 175 yards with tremendous height so it's great for clearing higher trees when I'm a bit off line.
I also use it from thick rough, when I can't think what else to use or when I fear I might damage one of my more expensive clubs.

Bidding on a sonartec 5 wood atm. If I don't win that I could well go for one of those.
I agree with you on the headcovers. I found the original Cleveland classic headcover in the bargin bin at Manchester g.c. for 3 quid. So much better to get off and on and looks x10 better than the 910 headcover.
Cheers for the heads up

I absolutely love mine, so much i even re gripped it with a bright red grip for no reason at all. Cost me 8 quid and its absolutely knackered. I can play any shot with it and has around a 220ish carry. I read you can get an 11 wood in the steelhead range but never seen one.

The first time I played at allerton muni, I rented a set of clubs. they were ancient and I think It had a womens 9 wood in there. I found it absolutely useless. It just went straight up in the air. It might have been an 11 wood.....
Just checked a photo on my phone. it was an 11 wood!!
7w always in my bag :thup:

I use a 7 wood as well. Just can't seem to get the long irons to behave.

So what's the carry with the 3 Wood? And the Driver?

Nothing wrong at all with using a 7W - the score on the card is all that matter regardless of what club is used.
Had an old V Steel on years ago

I used to when I was struggling with my strong 4 iron but it soon left the bag after a few sessions on the range with the iron.

I don't see what the difference is between using a 7 wood or a hybrid. Personally, I can't get to grips with hybrids and therefore stick to my old Callway Big Bertha 7 wood. I find it far easier to hit than my Titleist 21* hybrid.

Used to also own a v steel 7 wood, beast of a club and would put one back in the bag quite easily

I'm 27 and use one. I used to always get my Grandpa's old clubs and since just picking the game back up after not playing for 10 years he gave me his King Cobra SZ 7 wood. It's brilliant! I can strike the ball much cleaner out of the rough with this club than any other club in the bag. Although sometimes the trajectory is a little high it is probably one of my most reliable clubs.

Over the summer I swapped out my 3h for a 7w. Same distance but flight was much higher so worked well for soft landings on firm greens. Also gives lots of confidence standing over the ball at address. I'm thinking how can I not hit this well.

I have 2 mates who use them - and both use 4-Woods too. Neither get on with Hybrids.
One managed to put his 2nd on BH Melbourne 18th up the tree at the back of the green, never to be seen again, last Saturday!
