How the Rhapsody 2015 lofts affect the shot

Loft is one of the biggest inputs into launch, trajectory, rollout and stopping power. The table below translates each Rhapsody 2015 loft into its likely loft-only shot tendency.

18°Lowest-Loft Shot
Mid launch • Moderate roll
26°Highest-Loft Shot
Very high launch • Very high stopping
Flight-Window Change
Mid → Very high launch tendency
3 loftsShot Bias
Distance → control as loft increases
Model shot profile: Across the 8° loft span, the model moves from the 3-wood at 18° (mid launch / moderate roll tendency) to the 7-wood at 26° (very high launch / very high stopping tendency). That is the core shot-shape trade-off created by the loft progression.
Club Loft Launch Tendency Flight Window Roll Tendency Stopping Tendency Loft-Driven Role
3W 18° Mid Balanced Moderate Moderate Versatile distance / approach slot
5W 22° High High / soft Lower High High-launch approach slot
7W 26° Very high Very high / steep Lowest Very high Maximum-height / stopping-power slot

What the loft gaps mean for shot separation

  • 3-wood → 5-wood: 4° — Wide loft step — likely a more noticeable launch/carry role change.
  • 5-wood → 7-wood: 4° — Wide loft step — likely a more noticeable launch/carry role change.

Fairway-wood note: Lower-loft woods are biased toward speed, flatter flight and more rollout; higher-loft woods trade some distance for easier launch, steeper descent and more stopping power. A high-loft fairway can therefore behave very differently from a hybrid with the same number on the sole.

Part of lineup Reference club Loft What the loft favors
Distance end 3-wood 18° Mid launch, moderate roll, stronger distance bias
Middle 5-wood 22° High launch, more balanced carry/control role
Control end 7-wood 26° Very high launch, very high stopping tendency, stronger control bias

Spec note: Loft can vary with model year, region, special configuration or custom fitting. Verify an exact club against PING documentation or measurement when a single degree matters.
