Should I add a 7-wood? – GolfWRXers discuss

Published

In our forums, our members have been going in deep on 7-woods. WRXer ‘PilotSports’ is the latest of our members to consider adding one to their bag and kicks off the thread saying:

“I’m starting to gear up for the season and am contemplating a change at the top of my bag. Currently I carry Driver, 3W (13.5 degrees), 5W (18 degrees) and 4H (22 degrees).

The 5W quickly became my favorite club in the bag when I added it last year, which got me thinking – should I replace the 4H with a 7W? I’d appreciate everyone’s opinion, particularly those that have the 3W/5W/7W setup. How do you like it? Thanks a lot!”

And our members have been sharing their thoughts in our forum.

Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.

Fairway14: “For some players 7-wood is good; for others, the club produces too high spinning high trajectory shots which make consistent distance control too much of a challenge.”
bogeyman71: “I love my G425 7 wood also. One of my favorite clubs to manipulate shots with. I can hit it both high and low and work shots both left and right.”
hunterbrown: “7W is great. I gave it a shot lost season but its not as versatile as I thought it might be, it was replacing a ZX 3 iron that went decently high, and I could use it off the tee; that’s where I lost the 7W. It would get eaten up above the trees, which is a good problem if it’s going too high into greens but not off the tee.”
QuigleyDU: “I am very pro 7 wood. I love that club. The 21 degree UW as others have said is another great option.”

What’s the perfect mini-driver/shaft combo? – GolfWRXers discuss

In our forums, our members have been discussing Mini-Drivers and accompanying shafts. WRXer ‘JamesFisher1990’ is about to purchase a BRNR Mini and is torn on what shaft weight to use, and our members have been sharing their thoughts and set ups in our forum.

Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.

PARETO: “New BRNR at 13.5. Took it over to TXG (Club Champ but TXG will always rule) in Calgary for a fit. Took the head down to 12, stuck in a Graphite Design AD at 3 wood length and 60g. Presto- numbers that rivaled my G430Max but with waaaaay tighter dispersion. Win.”
driveandputtmachine: “Still playing a MIni 300. The head was only 208, so I ordered a heavier weight and play it at 3 wood length. I am playing a Ventus Red 70. I play 70 grams in my fairways. I use it mainly to hit draws off the tee. When I combine me, a driver, and trying to hit a draw it does not work out well most of the time. So the MIni is for that. As an aside, I have not hit the newest BRNR, but the previous model wasn’t great off the deck. The 300 Mini is very good off the deck.”
JAM01: “Ok, just put the BRNR in the bag along side a QI10 max and a QI10 3 wood. A load of top end redundancy. But, I have several holes at my two home courses where the flight and accuracy of the mini driver helps immensely. Mine is stock Proforce 65 at 13.5, I could see a heavier shaft, but to normal flex, as a nice alternative.”
