nine iron

Short approach club

A nine iron is a golf club with a heavily angled face, used for short approach shots that need to travel high and land softly on the green.

It's among the highest-lofted irons in a standard set, typically hitting the ball 100 to 140 yards depending on the player's strength and swing.
