between adjacent lofts
Very even
7-wood
5W to 7W structure: 4° separates the 5-wood and 7-wood.
Spacing efficiency: The 8° total loft span is divided into 2 equal steps of 4°. There are no compressed or oversized loft jumps in the lineup.
Coverage: The family spans 8° from the 3-wood to the 7-wood.
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.
Mid launch • Moderate roll
Very high launch • Very high stopping
Mid → Very high launch tendency
Distance → control as loft increases
| 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.
Rhapsody 2015 distance-to-control map
| 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.
