The clubs are listed in order of shot distance, from shortest (putter) all the way up to the longest (driver). Club lengths will of course vary, to suit the height of the golfer - some typical club lengths are given. In addition to being a Golf Club Loft Chart, the table is a Golf Club Distance Chart, as well. I have always wondered just what the performance characteristics are, of all the various golf clubs. So, I made this comparison chart to illustrate the differences. Shot Distance Stan. Golf Club Set Golf Club Length Note
