Is Your Best Choice A Standard 5 Iron? Or A Fairway Wood #11

Some golfers should carry a #11 fairway wood because of it’s ability to hit with height, forgiveness, and distance, compared to a standard 5 iron read why:

• The #11 wood is a great choice to replace a 5 iron or 5 hybrid. It has a larger head than a hybrid which for some golfers, it will give them more confidence at the address position. With about 30 degrees of loft, it provides more loft than a 9 wood, which typically has only about 26 degrees of loft. The additional loft makes it easier to hit the ball high even off a tight lie; it’s also very effective from difficult lies like tall grass. In fact, most golfers can hit there 11 wood from the fairway or the rough with enough height and forgiveness, which is not always the case with their 9 wood.

• The club-length of a #11 wood is about 1 inch shorter than a 9 wood, making it much easier to consistently hit the sweet spot.

• The #11 wood will have about 10 more grams of sole head-weight compared to a 9 wood. This additional sole weight will help you in two ways; getting the ball up quicker off the fairway or out of a fairway bunker. The eleven fairway wood is ideal for golfers who have a sweeping swing, and is a very good choice if you have a shanking problem with standard irons.
