Hi there,

given a string of recent successes with my 5 wood (instead of long irons)
on approach shots I started to think about 7 and 9 woods. I found very nice
clones of the Callaway woods but had several questions:

1. What are the lofts of the Callaway 7, heavenwood, 9 and
divine 9 woods?
2. What are the differences between the 7 and heavenwood? I
understand that the heavenwood has the warbird keeled sole-
plate and a longer shaft. Any other differences?
3. Same as 2. but regarding 9 and divine 9. Probably they are
the same.
4. Any opinions on the playability of these woods and 7 and 9
woods in general.
5. In what situations is a 7 wood more helpful than a 9 wood and
vice versa?


Thanks in advance, happy golfing over the weekend

The loft on the 7 and Heaven woods is 21 degrees, pretty standard for a 5-wood.
The difference between the two is in the length of the shaft, the heaven wood
is about an inch and a half longer (more clubhead speed).
I don't know the specks on the Divine 9.
