 I asked this in a previous video, I'm going to start with exactly the same question. Are you a golf snob? If you are, switch off now because this won't be of any interest to you. Well hopefully you've stuck around to see what is the average golfer going on about this morning and it is a grim morning. We are, well we are. That is what I'm looking out at. It is pretty much underwater but the bay is still, the driving range is still open, I am going to carry on testing. I have looked at some alternative club suggestions when looking at gapping at the top end of your bag in recent videos. I am going to carry on that this morning and I mentioned a golf snob bit. A lot of us would literally look at this club on the shelf and dismiss it straight away. The question is, what is it and should you really be turning the other cheek to this golf club? Right, okay, so you've answered the first question and you've stuck around to find out what it is we're looking at. If I had mentioned the name Seven and Ward, what are you going to do now? Yeah, a lot of you have stopped and switched off already and refusing to watch any further. But should you be continuing to watch? And I think the answer is yes you should. I don't say this will apply to every golfer but I think the large majority of average golfers can benefit from opening their minds and looking at and considering a few different alternatives when it comes to the top end of the bag. Maybe the bottom end as well, we'll get that in another video. In recent videos I looked at hybrids, seven hybrids, five hybrids from Mizuno and it opened my eyes to thinking again the whole thing, what we try and do or what I try and do as a channel is try and make suggestions and considerations for golfers who are average, who struggle with certain aspects of the game, whether that be club-ed speed resulting in ball speeds resulting in poor launch, poor carries, then they're the kind of things I like to consider when I'm doing a review. And the Seven Ward was again a recommendation of a number of people who've said they'd like us to have a look at it. Anyway, I've managed to get and it's the only one in this whole bay, this tells you about the popularity of this club and how readily available they are. But this is a Seven Ward and it's from Taylor Made and it's the M6 and it's 21 degrees. So it's not a seven iron equivalent in terms of loft, it's 21 degrees worth of loft. So you've got to bear that in mind when you're considering what this is going to do in terms of performance. And it surprised me a little because I thought it would be weaker lofted than that but it just shows much like the irons, everything has moved down a peg and yet we've got a 21 degree Seven Ward in hand. Other things to consider different than perhaps obviously the longer irons in the bag and even the hybrids is there's a much longer shaft. I'm reaching over because I've just done the video on the, well this is a Seven Hybrid and hopefully from there you can see the difference between the two is sort of four inches in length in terms of the shaft. So there's a lot more variables that you've got to consider and what you want it to do in terms of your bag but then if you consider it and we're going to do a lot of considering, let's see if we can find a perfect Three Wood and let's have a look at the shaft length on Three Wood and again we've probably got another two inches in terms of length between the M6 Three Wood that is and the Seven Wood. And why am I mentioning that? Well we all know because like from a control perspective you'd much rather have the shorter shaft in hand it gives us a greater opportunity of finding that sweet spot in theory. But who might it suit? Well like I said slower swing speeds maybe someone who's struggling with launch but I don't even know whether it might suit a heck of a lot more players who just gives a lot of versatility too in terms of having in the bag. It's a confidence builder again you feel like you've got a sort of I would imagine it's a shorter shaft like we've just demonstrated in the Three Wood but it's not like it's not Three Wood it's not got Three Wood loft in terms of what you look down on in the face as well. So you're seeing and the first thing to say in that you can't see it and I keep on complaining about that and I don't blame you is ball flight because that thing has just gone up airborne. It's that carry that I said that a lot of people will or the launch that a lot of people will struggle with with equivalent so 21 degrees what that maybe maybe strong lofted four iron in the bag. And when you consider do you want a four iron in the bag or do you want a seven wood I think that's when you understand the considerations. How many golfers answer down below comment down below how many of you are carrying four iron we've looked at this again in recent videos how many of you should be carrying a four iron. And how many of you could drop a four iron and put something like this in same loft arguably might be sort of similar numbers in terms of performance. But far easier absolutely flying far easier for us to hit. I mean can I get my four iron to go anywhere near those kind of distances that I'm seeing out there. No no I can't so it would beg the question you've got to look at gaping it would fit into somewhere. What I'm going to do I'll carry on hitting golf balls and we'll look at where it might sit in for me and where it might fit in for you. But we'll look at some numbers look at some performance and then we'll do an overall evaluation. Right so as ever let's not mess around too much and carry on with a waffle let's get straight into the numbers. What I forgot to mention during the video is that I hit from a small tee and then I hit from the deck as well because I think this is a club that you'd use in both scenarios. Start off from the tee so easy like I said just a little bit I don't know about a 5mm tee I probably had on and it's so easy to pick up cause it really clean obviously from the tee. Numbers were fantastic look at that I mean it's like 135 ball speeds, 3-2 spin, 2-1-4 on average carry but some real consistent carries. Talk about that launch at 15.1 it's just what a great golf club to have in I mean 214 like I said comparing to my 4 iron with equivalent loft is around a 190 carry. So it's something like I said and we've looked at this don't ever think that you fit in your clubs based on purely on loft because a 21 degree 7 iron is clearly performing very much different. A 7 wood rather is performing very different than a 21 degree 4 iron so make sure when you're doing your gaping at the top end of the bag you consider a lot more things and just straight forward loft comparisons. Then I took it off the deck again you'll see dispersion here is a little bit more variable in terms of front to back and that's largely because a pureness of strike the ability to catch a little bit or not catch a little bit of mat before the ball. More variations but again overall ball speed 134, 3-1 spin, 208 carry and that was largely affected by one in particular that dropped off that I got that little bit heavy but again that's a reality of the average golfer. That's what happens you never have said this 100 times before when you're reviewing clubs yes we want these perfect scenarios and perfect numbers that's not what happens in reality that's exactly what I keep explaining. 198 was my worst, 219 was my best. Was that anything to do with the club in terms of dispersion though it was not it was due to the quality of strike from me and that's exactly what I'd do out there on the golf course. Then kind of things this idea dispersion is released anyway different argument right point is this don't be a golf snub don't be a golf snub like me. I mean like I said I put myself in that bracket dismissing clubs that seven would do I need a seven would I mean I was going to say something I know man's club that's what I would refer what had referred to it as and you know it's an ignorant perception of it. But that's again being perfectly honest I would have viewed it in the past but what an absolute weapon to have in the bag. I think the important thing for me as an individual that I've learnt is that the gap in elements in terms of where does it fit in you'd have to have a serious look and but it's a real option and again I would think a great weapon for a lot of average golfers out there. Anyway as ever thank you for watching I am done for the morning it's all about editing now but at least I can get back in the warm I'll see you soon.
