The bars place each option on the same fairway-wood loft scale. Lower loft leans toward tee distance and a flatter flight; higher loft usually becomes easier to launch from turf and lands steeper.

What stands out: The loft progression is perfectly even at 1.5° per step. From the lowest to highest option, the total change is 1.5°.
Range coverageThis family stretches from 13.5° to 15°—a 1.5° span. The low end sits in stronger fairway territory while the high end moves toward higher-launching fairway/utility roles.
Loft stepsThe listed heads step by 1.5°–1.5°. That is very uniform spacing.
Bag-planning checkIf you already know the loft of your driver, hybrid or longest iron, use the 13.5°–15° range to spot overlap. Two clubs only a couple of degrees apart can still work, but they need clearly different carry or shot roles.
Practical takeaway: For 917F3, the useful question is not ‘which loft is standard?’ It is which option creates a clean carry gap between the clubs immediately above and below it.

How each 917F3 Fairway Wood loft changes the shot

Club Loft What that loft changes
13.5° option 13.5° This is a very strong fairway loft, closest to a mini-driver style distance slot.
15° option 15° This sits in the strong fairway zone, with a flatter flight and more tee bias than the higher-loft options. It sits 1.5° above the previous option.

For fairway woods, the useful question is not simply which loft goes farthest. The better loft is the one that launches reliably from the lies you actually use and leaves a clean carry gap to both the driver and the next club down.
