median lowest loft

All 91 fairway woods with a loft are ranked below, along with 7 more lists: highest opening loft, widest loft range, narrowest loft range, most upright lie, flattest lie, longest, shortest.

Every Callaway fairway wood on record, ranked against each other and never against another maker's. A brand cut compares a line with itself: it answers "the most offset iron Ping publishes", and it cannot be read as a claim that one manufacturer out-specs another.

Each figure is ranked from both ends — strongest and weakest, most and least — over the same clubs, and each list counts only the clubs that publish that figure, so the totals differ between them. Loft, lie, offset and bounce are fitting specifications — a stronger loft is a longer-carrying club of the same name, not a better one, and neither end of any list here is the good end. How this is worked out.

Who they are built for

The 92 fairway woods by handicap band — DERIVED from published loft, offset and length by the same classifier the fitting uses, never taken from a maker's marketing copy. A club whose category publishes nothing to read keeps its own row rather than being sorted into a band nobody computed.

The lowest loft the model is sold in. A driver line opening at 8° and one opening at 10.5° are aimed at different players; this is that difference, stated in the manufacturer’s own numbers. Irons are excluded — their lowest loft is whichever long iron the set happens to start at, which measures set composition rather than the club.

Degrees between the highest and lowest loft the model is published in — how far the line stretches to fit different players. Measured over the lofts on record for the model; a model we hold in a single loft has an unmeasured span and is left off rather than recorded as zero. Putters are excluded, being sold at one loft.

The published lie angle, measured from the ground. Irons are read at the 7-iron; every other category at the most upright figure the model publishes. PING quotes putter lie from vertical rather than horizontal, so those figures are converted onto the common scale before comparison and the club’s own page still shows the number PING published.

When they launched

Model year, where the record carries one — 38 of the 92 in this cut. A model year is when a club launched, not when it was designed or when it left the shops. Each year with enough clubs behind it links to that year's own boards.
