I agree 100%, but that is why it is pointless to ask what club you hit from any distance. My 7 is not the same as your 7, so how can we compare or get any meaningful info???!!!
Many years ago, Cobra claimed to have the "longest" irons in golf... that was because they changed their PW to 45* from 48*...
I never unerstand the point of "how far do you hit your ? iron..." questions...
From 170 yards I will hit:
1- a cut 5 iron
2- a low trajectory 25* hybrid
3- a hard draw 6 iron
4- off a tee I can hit a 7 iron sometimes...
Does that help?
