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:

Quote:

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...

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*

      Day 430 - 2025-12-04 Slow motion backswings (with chippy shots) with AlmostGolf balls.

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
