# 5 wood distance at age 60

A golfer of 60 carries a 5 wood about 159 yards on the age model, at 74 mph of club head speed, and totals 168 yards on a fairway landing. That is 20 yards behind the peak of 179 yards at 20, which the published fairway table prices at about 0.08 of a stroke per approach.

## Key figures

- A golfer of 60 carries a 5 wood about 159 yards on the age model, at 74 mph, and totals 168 yards.
- That is 20 yards behind the peak, worth about 0.08 of a stroke per approach on the published fairway table.

## Scope

- The age model eases a peak club head speed by decade and swings the 5 wood at the same fraction of its tour speed; the carry is the published tour anchor at that speed, and your own launch monitor carries replace it in the app.
