Fairway Lofts - What ya got?

SuperStroke
13.5* and 17*.
 
I always have my 3w in the bag. If I want to experiment a bit I'll add a 5w and/or 7w, but not often.
3w is 15º
5w is 18º
7w is 22º
 
I play a 17 degree 3w. I might look into going to 15.
 
Haven't carried one much the last 6 or 7 rounds, but I have 3+, 2 15*, and a 16.5*. 16.5 might get the most use going forward. I'm fighting the usefulness of carrying a 3W right now. I want more irons and versatility in the bag.
 
EXS 220 15. It replaced a Callaway 16.5 that was adjustable.
 
15 (3w) and 18 (5w)
 
16.5 degree Titleist 917F2. Love it.
 
This is currently something I’m toying with. At the end of last season I was considering moving to a 4W from my current 3W and 5W, so they’re set at 15.5* and 17.5*.

We will see how this new-to-me driving iron performs and then decide if I’m keeping things this way and taking out the 5W.
 
12* 3w+

I hit the ball high. I want something that I have a chance of hitting a low runner with. Which I can do. Hit a beauty yesterday with it from way further out than that ball should have gone.

I go up much higher and all I get are moonballs. I’ve gone so far as to use a 20+ year old 7.5* Titleist driver as a FW just to keep them down. But that was when I swung a lot harder.
 
16.5 3w turned up to 17.25, and 18 5w turned up to 19.5
 
I’ve only got 1 - a 19 degree 5 wood.

Do you know what your lofts are on the 4 & 7 woods? I’m thinking of going with this combo.

Mine are 16.5 and 21. Have a 21 4H and need to look at separation.

Because I want distance, though, the new 16.5 coming in at 43 inches.

Lots of testing to do.
 
3W 15°
3H 19°

Though I'm toying with the idea of switching the OL 3H for a VL 5W. Not sure I'm getting along with a OL 19°, feels a bit short of distance compared to my old VL.
 
I play a 3w at 15, Heavenwood at 20, a 9 wood at 23 and a 11 wood at 25. Damn proud of it and my opponents hate it. :eek::love::eek::love::eek::love:

2h @16 deg
3h @19
4h @ 22.

All hybrids , fairways were retired, after good years of service.
 
16.5 degree 4W and a 17 degree UW. Surprisingly I have no gapping issues with 0.5 degrees of loft difference.
 
Moving to 13.5 this year, then a 19 UW
 
My 3 wood is lofted down to 14 degrees for proper gapping.
