Congrats on finding the club that works.

Over the years I have found a fairway wood between 40.5-41.5" (lie angle between 60-59*) and a hybrid around 38-38.5" (lie angle between 61 and 60.5) works fine. 44.5" driver with 58.5* lie angle works well also. These are what fit my swing. Ditto with irons 35-36.5 (lie angle 65 - 63).

Already established that ~20* fairway wood with 41" shaft does the same thing as a 17H with better results.

The 913H 17* theoretically should swing like a 7 wood.

I have a 910F 19* with a shaft length of 41" and A3 Surefit setting and I crush it. I also have my 910H 27* set at 38" length with A3 and I can hit the daylights out of the ball (was hitting a few screamers that went about 180 today).

i finally got to try the 913 H and 913F. I was definitely more consistent and comfortable with 913H 17* hitting around 230~235 range which is the distance that i'm looking for. I'll probably pick 913H up but may be i'll wait couple months to check out the 712U first and make a decision.

I wonder what the main purpose and advantage of 712U will be. replacing the 2-4 irons for people who likes irons over hybrid?

The 913 H 17*, will probably be easier to hit off the ground than the 913 F. You probably will have more consistency with the 913 H too. However, the 913 F probably will go further off the tee than the 913 H.

Here's my situation. i have 913 D2 9.5, 585H 21* (hit about 205~215) and i just picked up a used 910 Fd 13.5* to replace TM 15*. I love 910 Fd 13.5* off the deck/tee but i have a hard time being consistent on the fairway. So right now i don't have a good club for 230~250 range. Since i only use 52, 56 wedge and i took out the 3 iron, i'm thinking about adding another wood.

I haven't tried increasing 910Fd to 15* and try to hit off the fairway but i really like 910Fd 13.5 off the deck on tight fairways.

so if i were to add another wood for fairway, should i go with 913H 17* or 913F 17*?

Suggestion is to try them side by side. Even the World #2 carries a 19.5 loft fairway wood.

I happen be a person who hits a fairway wood much better and farther than a longer hybrid (I hit a 20 degree loft fairway 190-200; lucky if I hit 175 with a 20 hybrid). I just recently chucked my 21H (which I tried to use for the past year, first with a Superfast 1.0 and then a 910H) and went back to using a 9 wood after 3 years. I've been using a 21 fairway and either a 28.5 persimmon fairway (which I used between 2010-2011) or a 26-27H (which I have been using since mid 2011; I've had a 910H 27 since last summer) and doing a choke shot with the fairway to cover the gap distance. I hit a 9 wood about 5 yards farther than a 21 hybrid and much more consistently plus it is much easier to hit off a bad lie vs a 21H.
