Does anyone here play a 7 wood? If so, what shots do you use it for? What kind do you have? How far do you hit it? Do you also play a 4 iron?

Tell me everything!

I play a 4 hybrid so it's wood-like. I used to carry a 5 wood but I hit it and my 3 hybrid about the same distance and the hybrid is a lot more consistent to hit.

My dad plays a 4/5 hybrid and a 6/7 iron that he just hits harder or softer depending on distance.

I have a buddy that plays a 7 wood and he says he pretty much only uses it if he hits a bad drive on a par 4 or a great drive on a par 5. He starts his irons at 6 though and also carries a 3 wood and an extra wedge.

My thought is it would be easier to hit out of thick rough vs a 3 or 4 hybrid because it's more lofty. What do you think?
