The 3 wood and 5 wood are commonly referred to as fairway woods, because they are most often used during the second shot of play, when you are supposed to be in the fairway of the golf hole (as opposed to in the woods!).

Of course, "woods" are now also made of metal, but that's a relatively recent development. Irons have featured metal clubheads (steel, these days) for centuries. The clubheads of irons are thin from front to back, and the clubfaces are grooved to impart spin on the golf ball.
Other irons may be available for purchase separately, including a 2-iron and additional wedges (gap wedge, sand wedge, lob wedge). None of the additional clubs are necessary for beginners, and especially not the 2-iron.

The Titleist 718 AP1 irons are designed to be the Titleist iron for the average player. Long with solid forgiveness. Introduction. The AP1 has always been a bit of an outcast in the Titleist line up. The brand is built around an image of appealing to better players, an image the larger, game-improvement iron doesn’t fit.
Literally, Titleist.com explains the 718 AP3 iron as "the players distance iron". Knowing that the AP1 has the strongest lofts in the Titleist family of irons, we thought it would be best to set a high mark for the AP3.
