    Why is it that Titleist doesn’t make a 7 wood for lefties. They did in the 913 and 915 but then stopped. Here in Canada there are a lot of lefties and I love my 913 but wouldn’t mind upgrading.

    I have the 15* 3 wood and am buying the 20* which I will set on 21*.

    I have T400 irons (...slower swing speed golfer) and from a 23 6 iron that will likely be replaced by a hybrid. I have distance gaps above the 7 iron. But there is nothing for LH in the 20-21 degree range in TSi-1 line for hybrids and fairways or TSi-2 fairways. It will take creativity to work with TSi-2 hybrids and TSi-1 18 degree fairway to fill my distance gaps. A 7W and a 20-21 degree for the TSI-1 line would have offered more flexibility.
    Fortunately, I can get enough launch with the TS-1 driver (10.5) without going to 12 degrees.

    I want a 7 wood because I hook hybrids like crazy.

    Just checked on this site and a left handed 21* is available. The new TSi2 comes in a left handed 21* which is considered a 7 wood (20* - 24*), or a replacement for a three iron. You can adjust it from 20.25 to 22.50 to meet your needs. As you move up in lofts in the fairway woods (13.5*, 15*, 16.5*, 18*, 21*) the heads become smaller.

    Personally, at my age (74+) I prefer the feel of the hybrids and hit my 21* between a four and three iron and my 17* between a two and three iron. At first I had a problem with the hybrids, but a pro explained that I was trying to hit them like hitting my three wood causing issues. He explained that I needed to hit down and thru like I would hit an iron and no worries.

    All my shafts from Driver to hybrids are Fujikura tour speeders. I was fitted with a wrong shaft while at a fitting out of state (which I found out later) and ordered a tour speeder for my 15* fairway and it increased my performance 100%. Those hybrids have gotten me out of some tight spots during my rounds that a larger head could never have done. Spent a little time on the range and it really helped. On the last par five Friday, I hit my drive into the wind and pulled out my 17* hybrid and hit a high cut into the green, two feet from the flag. First eagle since coming back from rehab in mid December.

    Chuck,

    I think it shows as 21* being available because the option page is standard for LH and RH, but if you go beyond that it will not let you add a shaft, grip, etc. or process the order. 18* is the highest you can actually order.

    I sadly just broke down and bought the 18* this week and will hopefully have it bent to get closer to the 7W setup.

    As a lefty I would be okay with waiting if Titleist was more open about "we are working to release it, but it won't be until June", etc.
