Know your numbers
Golf distance charts
If you came here to answer “how far should this club go?” Start here. Every chart on this site is compiled from published launch-monitor datasets and cited on the page, so you can see exactly where each number comes from. Read them as a reference point. Then measure your own, because that’s the number that actually clubs you.
Available charts
Golf club distance chart
Average carry distance for every club, driver to lob wedge, with tour, skill-level, and by-age tables. Printable.

Open the chart →7 iron distance
The reference club, in depth: what a normal 7-iron number looks like by skill level, age, and swing speed.
Open the chart →Golf club length chart
Standard club lengths driver through putter, men's and women's, steel and graphite, with brand variation and why longer usually isn't better.
Open the chart →Printable yardage tracker
A blank sheet for recording your own carry distances club by club. Ten-shot method. Print it, fill it in, carry it in the bag.
Open the chart →Beginner golf club distances
What a new golfer actually carries, driver through wedges, with the average-amateur column alongside. Why gapping matters more than yards at this stage.
Open the chart →Senior golf club distance chart
Iron distances by age decade from Arccos tracked-shot data, senior columns first. How much distance drifts, why, and the one-club adjustment that fixes most of it.
Open the chart →Women's golf club distances
Driver distances for female amateurs by handicap band, from two independent 2026 datasets, plus the LPGA Tour club-by-club reference. An honest note on what's still not citable.
Open the chart →Hybrid golf club distances
A hybrid goes as far as the iron it replaces. Here's the manufacturer's own loft-equivalence mapping, brand-by-brand loft ranges, and why we don't print an invented average table.
Open the chart →We add a chart when the data behind it is solid, not to pad a list. Where a table can’t be publicly sourced yet (like a full women’s club-by-club amateur table), we say so on the page instead of printing estimates.
Where these numbers come from
Published launch-monitor datasets (TrackMan Tour averages, Shot Scope and Arccos amateur data) and manufacturer specs, not our own testing. Last updated July 29, 2026. Read our methodology.
These are averages. Yours are different.
