A left handed fairway wood is a wood-style golf club built for a golfer who plays from the left handed side. It is usually used for longer shots from the tee, fairway or light rough.
Common options include left handed 3 woods, 5 woods, 7 woods and 9 woods.
Choose based on the distance gap you need to fill and how easy you want the club to launch. A left handed 3 wood offers more distance but can be harder to hit from the ground. A 5 wood, 7 wood or 9 wood usually gives more loft and easier launch.
For many golfers, a 5 wood or 7 wood is more playable than a 3 wood.
The main difference is loft. A 3 wood has the least loft and is usually the longest, but it can be harder to launch. A 5 wood has more loft and is easier to hit for many golfers. A 7 wood launches higher and can replace long irons or hybrids. A 9 wood has even more loft and can suit golfers who want maximum height and easier launch.
The right choice depends on your swing, strike and distance gaps.
Yes, used left handed fairway woods are worth buying if they are properly checked, graded and suited to your swing. They can offer quality value compared with buying new and may give left handed golfers more choice.
Compare loft, shaft flex, condition, brand and head type before choosing.
A left handed fairway wood is built for golfers who play from the left side, with the club head set up correctly at address. The main buying factors are still the same as standard used fairway woods: loft, shaft flex, launch, forgiveness, condition and how confidently the club sits behind the ball.
Buy a left handed fairway wood if you want more height, carry and distance. Buy a hybrid if you want a shorter, more controlled club that can be easier from rough or awkward lies.
Many golfers carry both because they solve different distance gaps.
For many golfers, yes. A left handed 7 wood has more loft than a 3 wood, which usually makes it easier to launch from the fairway.
A 3 wood may go further on a good strike, but a 7 wood can be more consistent and confidence-building for many players.
