The term "long iron" refers to a specific type of golf club used to hit longer shots. However, there are other synonyms used to describe this type of club, such as "fairway wood" or "hybrid". A fairway wood typically has a larger head and flatter face than a traditional iron, allowing for greater power and distance on shots. Hybrids are a newer type of club that combine the benefits of both woods and irons, with a shape and design that aims to deliver the best of both worlds. These synonyms provide golfers with a variety of options when selecting the club that best suits their playing style and individual needs on the course.
