So, does it have the loft of a 9i (~44*?) and how far does it go?

Check it out: http://www.globalgolf.com/gallery/golfclub/-/ptid--2/fairway-wood.aspx?styp=23

Global golf has a selection of 9 woods.

I think they're made for women and older golfers.

Quote:
The woods in a typical golfer's bag will include a driver and one or two fairway woods, most commonly a 3-wood and/or 5-wood. Women and seniors might benefit from adding a 7-wood or 9-wood. The 4-wood is another common wood, and some golfers even carry an 11-wood.

This is from the 'Annoying Golfer' thread, by a guy whose other postings are fairly comprehendable, so I'm not sure what happened here:

We're waiting to tee of as usual because the hole it tee box, lake, elevated green trees right and back of green.

I'm trying to picture elevated green trees...I guess they planted them up on a platform or something...

So, does it have the loft of a 9i (~44*?) and how far does it go?

The loft is like 24 degrees, I hit it anywhere from 175-200. I've seen older 9 woods with 27 degrees of loft. Cant multi quote from my phone but I paid $119 new for that callaway.

Yeah, a 9 wood is a 4 iron replacement. 7 wood's a 3 iron. 5 wood was a 2 iron but now that there aren't really any 2 irons anymore, it's just a 5 wood.

5 iron and 5 wood don't have the same lofts, right?

It looks like

3w - 15*

5w - 18*

7w - 21*

9w - 24*

    • In this case they are  playing a  course where a  mistake  means a  bogey  instead  of a  par.
    • Day 49: 50 balls, split between pitching and chipping, still focused on good contact. A few minutes of full swing rehearsal indoors. 
    • It seems like any small mistake is exponentially exacerbated in the U.S. Open set up.  This tournament seems to be a very good test on identifying who makes the least mistakes - not who makes the best shots.  
    • Day 575, May 31, 2024 Played about five holes without a distraction today, and about 13 while my mind was elsewhere and on the taps on my wrist and the messages I was sharing with @Hardspoon and… just generally being annoyed about what was happening. But I played pretty well for the five holes.
