FAIRWAY WOOD

Fairwaywood

These clubs are designed to be hit from long distances away on approach shots for par 4 and 5?s. These can be played off a tee too, but normally they will be played off of the fairway or out of the rough. Most golfers carry at least 2 fairway woods, usually the #3 and 5-woods, but higher lofted versions are available to replace irons to be hit from a much shorter distance, especially for lady and senior male golfers who enjoy the addition of #7 and 9-woods. Full sets of fairways (all the way to a #15 wood) have been manufactured, but with the advent of hybrids, they are now much harder to find.
