- I TURN A 5-WOOD INTO A MONSTER! Can You Turn Your 5-Wood into a 3-Wood? its lovely to hit 300 yard long drives down the fairway and impress your mates, theres no feeling like smashing long drives... but sometimes you gotta tone it down, you have to hit more fairways. is this the best way to hit more fairways off the tee for low handicap golfers, mid handicap golfers and even high handicap golfers... in this video I take a Callaway epic flash 5-wood and use its adjustability to change it into a more powerful longer 3-wood... will this work? do adjustable golf clubs make any difference at all? or is it just a sales gimmick? potentially this could be a new club in my golf bag if things go well! lets find out... and lets do It now!
I play the epic flash 5 wood lofted down to 17 degrees. I was using the 3 wood lofted up to 17 degrees, which was good off the t, but harder to hit off the deck because of its bigger head size and longer shaft. I was also kind conscious about the added spin from lofting up as opposed to down. Im a high handicapper and love the 5 wood lofted to 17 degrees. Its more like a 4 wood. I like the slightly lower flight than the 18 degrees, and added roll out. I will adjust to 18 degrees depending on weather conditions and course
Mike S me to👍
I like the idea of a “fairway finder swing”
I have found that if I dial the speed back just a touch my golf is way better than just going out and trying to smash every shot as hard as I can! Great video James!
I know it's an old post James but I just picked up the flash 5 and 7. The 5 came with a 3 wood length shaft. I'm trying it tomorrow at 17 and 18 and against my three wood then decide whether to cut it down and where it fits. Love the 7. Your old content is still helping us retired or financially challenged golfers find quality players gear at a fair price.
Cheers
Also love the next 100 and looking forward to more
Man your videos are gold. So after 15 years of not playing, I’m back! I never liked my 5 wood because it was 10 yards more than my 3 iron at 210 yards and difficult to hit off the turf. Club design, mainly shape, has improved so much. That Callaway 5 wood is a beast!!!
I purchased this club after watching this review. The first round I used it, I only hit it as my second shot on par 5's. Hit it long and straight!!! Was hitting the driver poorly so just started using this as my driver the rest of the round. I was hitting it over 240 every time and finished well. Decided I would order the 3+ version and dial it down to 12.5 degrees and use as my driver!!!👍 Thanks James!!!
Hi James,
Great vid. Can you adjust your current 3 wood and adjust this 5 wood, to be the same loft, so we can see the difference in distance between the two, which would mostly be the length of club difference.
Personally I up my 3w to be a 4 wood after watching a pro do a comparison video between 3/4/5 woods. Last few years I used a Big Bertha Alpha 815 14 degree, with a +2 setting to have a little more consistency. Just got an epic flash 3w, 15 degree, set to +1 and liking it so far.
I have this exact 5 wood and have also lofted it down one degree. A cool 235 fly for me and quite consistent. Absolutely love the setup for when I need to hit a fairway
Hey all! First time commenting on this channel. Love the content James, keep it up! I still play my Cobra SZ fairway woods 2003, steel stiff flex - 3+ 13*, 5 18*, 7 21*. 5 wood is my go to off the tee for short par 4s & 2nd shot on par 5s. Have bought many since, hit them well, keep going back. Just started playing again after 10 years, thanks to you, Rick Shiels, Peter Finch, Liam Harrison OMP & The Dick from Golf Vlogs Uk! Cheers
Ping G410 5 wood, lofted up to 18 degrees most of the time. Got a 3 wood length shaft in it through so between changing the loft up / down and gripping down I can get it from 180 sky high or 240 flatter. One of my favourite clubs and the adjustability and options it gave me was the key to the purchase!
I just picked up this 5 wood to fill a spot in the bag. I was looking for a sub Zero, but found this at a great price. Thanks for a lot of great info for a fellow tinkerer. I'm looking forward to getting out and swinging it.
Bought an old Sonartec ladies flex LS 99 17 degree 3 wood, put on new +1/8 inch grip. The shaft is 41.75 inches in length about the same as most 5 woods. As a slow swinging senior with a 12 GHIN, this experiment has worked well for me. I have never been able to consistently hit a conventional 3 wood, this club is very consistent and long enough for my game.
I'm a low launch/low spin fairway wood player. Have a TS2 at 15.75 at 1* flat. Seems to work pretty well. Have an old Callaway 5W that I hit more often off the deck as it goes 210 and my 3W only goes 225-235 max and I can hit moonballs (for me) with it. Use the 3W most often for bombing off the tee on short Par 4's.
Like it!
I play my G410 LST 3-wood that I loft up to 16 degrees. For me seeing a little more face helps with confidence. The distance between 16 degrees and 14.5 degrees is minimal. I love the way the club performs and it's a bomber.
I bought a 5W (PING G400, 17.5 standard loft) as I was having MAJOR issues hitting a fairway wood. Tuned it to 16.5 to get it traveling further and to get that shorter shaft helping to hit a little better. It has me swinging confidently and I’m now ready to get a 3W, tune the 5 to 18 or 18.5, and get my old 19 degree 3 hybrid out of the bag.
I play Taylormade M2 (2017) 3 and 5 woods... both High Launch. More consistent and straight. What’s nice about the 21* 5 wood is I took the hybrid out of the bag and it’s perfect with my 5I. My driver is set to 11* so 17* 3 wood fits better. Plus my shafts are progressively weighted. Driver is 55g, 3 wood 65g and 5 wood 75g. 5-6 Irons are 95g; 7-GW are 105g. SW, LW are 113g. UST graphite for woods. Nippon NS Pro for the Irons/wedges
Hey! This is the exact club setup I use, loft dialed down and all. Was having consistency issues with my Epic Flash 3 Wood, but struck the 5 Wood much better. Decided to dial the loft down and have been very pleased since.
I have the epic flash 3 wood set at 17, and I love it. Would be really interested in the 3 wood vs 5 wood test. Great vid as always.
Did this earlier this spring. With my Fly-z 5 wood set to 17 degrees there was little perceived benefit to keeping the 3-wood in the bag. I replaced the 3-wood with a Cleveland RTX 3 58 degree wedge to expand my options at the other end of the bag. This has worked out very nicely!
I picked up a 17* Tour Edge 3 Wood (standard loft is 17* and 3 Wood shaft length ). Liked it so much I got a 45 gram Grafaloy Blue (Higher Launch) shaft for my TS2 3 Wood and cranked the loft up as high as I can with that club, 16.5*. I like that setup as well, but the Tour Edge feels softer. Much better ball flight with both clubs than a standard 15* 3 Wood, and at age 60, only looking for 190-200 yards from it.
Wow wow wow what a video this is and what a club. You are now playing with my mind because I currently game a 19 degree 5 wood that isn’t adjustable and I love it, now I’m thinking of trying the epic flash 5 wood and doing what you have done because I do struggle at times with my 3 wood due to the longer shaft
I literally just went thru this. Was trying an Epic 3 wood. Ball was coming out quite low. The fitter suggested I go a 5 wood delofted to 17*, but in a 3 wood length shaft. Gave me more confidence seeing more of the face without losing distance. I’m trying out a few more but am leaning this way.
I got hyped when i saw the club in the thumbnail. Thought you were changing to an actually good driver. 😄
Got fitted for this wood too, but we totally tinkered around with it. We put a shorter 7 wood shaft in, since couldn’t get through it with the 5 wood shaft. We then lofted it down to 17. My friends call it ‘The Beast’!
That’s another point. As a gamer I’ve been more of a range rat than a player. I’ve always had trouble bringing my range swing to the course and make it work. Your fairway finder swing is gonna become part of my swing thought. My coach told me the same thing. Dial the speed down. My “your swing “ not the other guys. Thanks again!!
Yes, I went to 17* Flash 5 wood and sold the 3 wood. Like you the accuracy was to much to pass up and I can still get to a few par fives in two where I play. Great video!
First.... I love your videos and always watch and like them. Huge fan of yours mate.
I would consider myself a decent golfer as i play off a + handicap and would maybe consider you to talk about the face a little when suggesting followers to add/remove loft. Believe it or not, not a lot of people understand how much the face opens when you de-loft the club and closes when you add loft. As much as 2 degrees for every degree of loft. That can make a massive negative impact for say someone who struggle with the right side of fairway/rough (right handed golfer) and decides they want to take loft away thinking it will go further, reduce spin (spin is your friend) and go straighter. Just my 2 cents pal. Keep up the great work and videos, one of the best out there!!!
Yes, please test 17 degree 3 wood to 17 degree 5 wood
Manufacturers have gone crazy with length anyway. I'm always a fan of shorter and heavier.
Great video James! This year I started hitting my 5-wood better than my hybrid, so I removed the hybrid from my bag.
I have actually done the opposite. My three wood is at 14.5 and purchased this year but I have cranked my old three wood from 14 up to 17 and use it as a 5 wood now. Love tinkering but these have stayed like that since I first did it!!
I just watched this again and love what you did tinkering with the lofts using the shorter shafted 5W...I think I'll try this out as well. Like your brother, I don't hit the 3W consistently good off the deck, but I'm smashing my 5W, which is an older Callaway Razr Fit...guess it's time for an upgrade!!
Did you upgrade Jaime? I love my Razr Fit 5W but would like some more distance
I just brought in my 5 wood. It’s a cobra composite. At least 15 years old. I abandoned my 3 and 4 iron and added a 21 degree hybrid and brought back the 5 wood. I’ve lost distance with my driver, only hitting 270’s now, so needed that extra distance to score on the par 5’s
Perfect timing James . I absolutely crush a 3 wood 260 to 270 off the tee. I find to be a bit far. So I've been looking in to this exactly thing. Going to try 5 wood with 3 wood shaft and Standard. Thanks.
Most underated club the 5 Wood in my humble opinion James when you loft if down you are playing a 4wood, I currently play an old school 4 wood but I am on the look out for an adjustable 5wood I think I will give the Callaway a run out cheers Peter
I use a Ping G400 5 wood lofted down to 16.5*. I am really confident from the deck, off the tee, and in the light rough. I only hit it about 225 yards but it is my go to club when I need to hit a shot over a pond the needs to cover 220 yards. I feel like it goes high but doesn’t balloon. That gives me confidence. Great club! Plus it opens for a 4th wedge in the bottom of the bag. Which is more important to me as most of my tee shots leave me 130 yards in. Which leads to better scores for me. Anybody else do it this way? Love all your video content!!
Titleist Ts2 16.5 set at c1 ,opened up and lofted down to I think 15.75 with even flow white 6.5 shaft ,use this off the tee quite a bit .No 5 wood but an old Wilson 21 degree Deep red 7 wood with a Voodoo xvr7 5 wood shaft in it ,this is my rescue type club ( I don't like normal rescue clubs , I'm no good with them ) then in to 4 iron .This combo is nice gapping in the high end .
You are SO RIGHT!!!
It's not a weak 3wood!!!
You adjust it to A 4wood!!!...This a Safe Club to keep you in the Fairway 🏌️♂️
I am one of those flat (baseball) swingers that adjusts up my 5-wood and get the distances down consistency I need. Which is an odd bag set up that fits my gaps (Driver 250-265, 5-wood 225-235, 3-hybrid 210-220, 5 iron - 60*)
I have rogue strong 3 wood, 13.5, that I bought to replace an epic 3 wood. I decided to experiment with the epic and lofted it up to a 16 degree. Only about a 10 yard difference in distance but the flight is completely different. I use the rogue for a lower flight with more run and the epic higher flight to hit par 5 greens with very little run.
I have Cobra F8 fairway metals. The 5 W is my fav set at 20 degrees. Hit it better than my Cobra driver.
Al Schoneman f8 fairways are beast
SAme
I have a 20 year old Tommy Armour 845s 5 wood at 21 degrees. Oldest club in my bag and due for a refresh. I've got the 2016 Taylormade M1 Driver and 3-wood and I'd love to round out that set!
I use a 16° 3-wood and a 19° 5-wood in various iterations for about 10 years. The combination seems to work best for me and especially my 5-wood (I often use it on par fives). I have found this setup works well for me insofar as distance consistency, trajectory, and reliability in a variety of situations. Keep in mind that I've tried all sorts of combinations of fairway woods for the last 50 or so years that I've playing the game and at various times I used a 3-wood and 2 iron or even a 1 iron but I can't muster the kinds of club head speed to make that kind of set up work in my 70s. I'm playing simple golf now.
This one was a good one James. Never thought about tinkering with my woods. Usually just the driver. Makes a lot of since 👍
Dunlop old school 5 wood 19 degrees non adjustable....average 170 carry with about 10-20 roll...it's my go too in par 5 holes
I play a 5 wood. Callaway Great Big Bertha. Looks like a very similar club as the Epic. I play it down to 17 degrees so it's more like a 3 wood. Never tinker with it. But may now haha.
At the end of the video it changed my mind. I like the yardage I and control I have. No need to add height when its consistent already.
I have been using a similar set up recently, a Cobra F9 5 wood set at 17 degrees loft. I needed an increase in club head speed , so I added a 44 inch fairway shaft . I probably choke down 1/2 inch or so. It feels a bit heavier, but that encourages a more rhythmic swing and better strike, with 10 m longer carry.
Ping G30 5 wood lofted down to 17 degrees and a 3 wood shaft. Favourite club in the bag…..so consistent
Hi James, I just swapped to srixon Z875 5 wood it's 15 yards longer Than my previous cobra 3/4wood Tried the srixon 5 wood and the srixon 3 wood ..only 2 yards in it !!! ..the 5 wood so much easier to hit. Only carry the 5 now Good video 👍
Just got a G410 driver in the first two weeks I had it at 9 different settings. Finally settled back to original setting. Have an issue with trajectory with the 3 wood off the deck so 5 wood sounds appealing.
Bought a 5 wood today...first time and it's great, gives me so much distance on par 5 2nd. Shots. Easy to hit from the fairway... its low ish and straight rather than 3 hybrid which draws more.
I'm playing a 2nd gen M2 5 wood instead of a 3 wood. When I bought it, I replaced my RBZ 3 wood with it. Since doing so, my game has definitely improved. I'm able to hit it well off a tee and off the fairway. I'm even able to hit it out of the rough with confidence. I think a lot of golfers would benefit from the shorter shaft and little more loft as it's much easier to hit consistently.
I pulled the 3 wood out this spring and rely on my 5 wood (Taylormade R15) lofted down a bit. It's been working great for me.
All very well James, but I would say 17 degrees is a four wood.
Four wood is best of both worlds imo, don't carry a three or five, and carry one extra wedge!
I use a Cobra 5 wood that’s cranked down to 17.5 degrees. It’s my only fairway wood after driver. It’s my fairway finder for tight par 4s and second shots on long par 5s. I’m a beginner so it’s easier for me to get carry out of this club than my old 3 wood at 15 degrees. Plus the shaft is shorter so it’s easier for me to hit the sweet spot.
Hey James, why not try the Epic Flash SZ 5 wood??? Being a guy of mere mortal swing speed, I’m looking at getting the Epic Flash Heavenwood, length is a little longer than 5 wood at 42.75 and the head is slightly larger. Can crank the loft down to 19, if I went as far as putting a tour or left hand sleeve on the shaft, could get the loft to 18.
Just bought Ping G410 3 wood and will be tinkering to get it into a 4 wood, hopefully...great video James, more of these, better to loft up than loft down?
I have 3 Titleist 913 Fairways, 13.5* Strong 3 wood (2 wood or mini driver if you like), 17* 4 wood and 21* 7 wood (a bit more of a spread than typical 3, 5, 7 at 15*, 19*, 21*). All have Aldila RipA 70 3 wood shafts but +1/2" length on the 3, original length on the 4, and -1/2" length on the 7. All set on factory A1, never been touched. They work well.
After 3 shoulder surgeries and age 62 I use a 5 and a 7 wood, I do because if I hit a long iron fat the pain is pretty bad, and yes I do adjust the lofts !!!!
I've got the Cobra Fly Z 3/4 fairway wood in the bag ( and it will stay there ) it can be changed from 12 to 16 degrees, through testing on the range I have found the ( sweet ) spot on the shaft at the 15.5 degree loft. It is just what I want off the fairway or off the tee on short par four's with a dog leg, etc etc etc.
I’ve got a G400 5 wood and made it stronger in loft as I find it better to hit off the ground and out of the first cut than a 3 wood. I now don’t carry a 3 wood in the bag and replaced it with a driving iron for more control off of the tee.
⛳️🤙🏼🔥
I carry the g410 5 wood (17.5) set at 16.5. And it’s a weapon. I got it to replace my old 3 wood. Easier to launch and no loss in distance and more consistent
This is a good video! I don't like tinkering with my clubs! I have a ping g410 hybrid set at 16 degrees to replace my 5 wood!
Have binned the driver and now play 3+ sub zero at 13.5 and a 915 5 wood. Way way better than a driver
I don't use a driver too and I have replaced my Titliest 915 13.5 with the 917 and replaced the 4 wood with a 917 5. wood. Its a great combination and the 5 wood is just great of the deck. All standard loft, I've stopped tinkering nowadays!!!
Been playing a year now. When I built my bag I ended up going 5 wood over 3 hybrid. 5 wood felt better to me and was hitting it better. After a year and a much better swing and grasp of the swing, still prefer the 5 wood over 3 hybrid. And still because of feel in the swing.
I was struggling with my 3 wood so I went for a fitting to maybe try a different brand but instead I was fitted into a Ping G410 5 wood and lofted it down. The slightly shorter shaft has helped a lot. Lost a few yards but at least I can use it more confidently now
Have lofted down my TS3 5 wood for more control and distance. Works a dream and more consistent. Hit it harder due to shorter shaft!!
100% all day Paul!
I am fairly new to golf and just bought myself a set of hybrids (3,4 and 5) now what are the differences between hybrids and woods? if you have hybrids do you need woods? thanks
Hybrids are iron replacement pretty much easier to hit. You will need a 3 wood or a club that goes 240- 260ish yards, used on par 5 or long par 4.
Yeah that’s fair enough mate
@@Js_Son83 some of us can't hit a driver 260 yards and are very good at golf.
Great idea doing this! Could you compare vs the 3 wood lofted up and also a 2 UDI to see the difference in flight, distance etc?
I use a 2 hybrid and 3 hybrid and find the 2 hybrid has the distance of a 4W, is more forgiving and more versatile. Would love to see you do a video comparing hybrids and fairway woods of similar lofts. I am betting the hybrid only loses about 10-15 yards to the same loft, and that would be mostly due to shaft length being shorter by about 1”. With same length, would be slightly less different.
I hava a callaway gbb alpha 5wood that is lofted down to 17 and the shaft is bit shorter. Super easy to hit, way easier off the deck than 3wood. Also i like the little bit smaller and shallower head size. I dont even carry a 3wood anymore.
Depends on your gapping. I guess you hit the low lofted version better because, correct me if I'm wrong, lofting up usually closes the face slightly, lofting down opens slightly. A slight open face was easier for you to control and caused you to make better contact, raising you ball speed. Sometimes it's good to tinker.
I've hit the Like button as beautifully and well as you hit that 5-wood. Am I a good boy or what?
Alright, I have a Titleist 917 F2 FW in 16.5 deg (which is a 4-wood I suppose) but have not yet tinkered with the hosel yet. I like the head size and form, I feel it sits nicely behind the ball. I get it to fly quite well, so I've restrained myself from fiddling with the A1 setup yet... surely will do, if only out of curiosity. Cheers James!
Great video! I like to tinker with lofts and weights too.
Would you consider testing a Heavenwood? Seems like the best of both worlds.
Great video James I use driver, two iron and then 5 wood my go to club off the tee.
Let’s see the clash with the sub zero 3 against the 5 wood
I’ve got a few different 5 woods depending on if my dad built them or I built them. Currently in the bag is an 18deg Warp Speed 5 wood. I also have a 21.5 Mag Dog and a 20deg Dynacraft Limited w/steel shaft. Somewhere in there I have a persimmon 5 wood as well.
I lofted up my no3 gapr hi up as it was so much lower than I expected. The thing is a beast now
My fav club..I have a 25 year old Top Flite carbon shaft small head 5 wood....bullet .. easy to hit..consistent + 200 on the fly...
Definitely want to see the 3 vs 5 wood video!
Would love to see your 3 wood lofted up for a comparison. I currently play a 17 degree non adjustable 4 wood because its easier off the deck. Looking for a new club and I've been debating G410 16* that can be lofted down when needed or a 17.5* 5 wood that lofts down to 16.
Bought a new Ping G410 5 wood about a month ago. I was hoping to get a little more distance than my long hybrid (Currently carry Mizuno hybrids set at 15, 19 and 24). It should have worked.....but it didn't. My 19 goes the same distance and the 15 rolls out 10 yards more even on the soft fairways at the moment. May sell the 5 wood.....but wonder if it might be a little better during the winter. No roll out for me with the 5 wood.
I'm old school. My driver at 9.5*, 3 at 15.5*, 5 at 18*, & 7 at 21* woods are non adjustable. Olny my putter I can adjust.
James, compare the loft down 5w with your 3w. That should be interesting and meaningful. Thks for all your honest opinions.
Interesting one this. I recently gap tested my old 15 degrees 3-wood against my 19-degree 5-wood and found there was little difference, except I cannot hit 3-wood off the fairway if my life depended on it. Traded them both in for a TM M2 5-wood set at 18 degrees. Works for me. I can hit it off tee and fairway. Also makes room for an extra club. Most golfers with an average-slow swing speed (imho) would be better off using a 5-wood instead of a 3-wood.
Mate, I don’t carry a driver or a 3 wood. 915f 5 wood only @18 degrees. Goes roughly the same distance as any driver or 3 wood I’ve tried but miles straighter and safer. Absolute gem of a club. 👍
I retired my 3. 4. and 5 woods. Went to a mizuno 7 wood lofted at 21*
You have done enough videos, including your last / recent 'Should I switch to an M6 Driver', where I, and many others, suggested you Open / De-Loft your M5 head, and pull the weights back (and possible put them in the Toe), because your 'standard' swing is a slight over the top pull (i.e. you start the ball almost always left of the target line). In this example of playing the 18 degree head at 17, the head is Opened to accomplish this (and it dramatically improves you delivery conditions) so it should not be a surprise in any way that it has improved the outcome (especially when compared to the 2 degree shut setup at 20degrees which will only make things more knife edged for you because you are not a natural fader of the ball where starting left to the target is optimal). A 17 degree 4wood with a modern 5 wood length shaft is really just a 4wood - and many pros will hit such a club as the stock long fairway wood into greens - if anything, I would suggest doing this exact same thing with the Sub Zero 5wood model as it will lower your spin another 100-300 rpms and given you another 5 yards carry and your peak height numbers will still be optimal. I might even further suggest you do the same with the new Epic Flash 3 Hybrid (with a proper non stock shaft) and also play it open & delofted at 17 degrees and see if you accuracy further improves - my guess is that it will.
You need to take into account the lengths as well. My 3 W is adjusted to 14.5° but length is 42.5" instead of current lengths of 43.5". Also my 25° hybrid is 39" but my 25° iron is 37.75". Although the loft is the same these two clubs play for different distances, heights , and lies.
I gotta say mate, that was a he most amazing demo I’ve seen. I’m a 3D handicapper and I could hit that club with complete confidence. I’d use it as my three wood taking your lead on the shaft change. Then de-loft my Ping G400 to 12 degrees that’s a down and dirty driver. I think I’d be set finding more fairways. Ya got me thinking. Thanks. I’m enjoying the content btw and I’m subscribed. 😀
Really starting to think a 5 wood might have to go back in my bag. The last time I used a 5 wood you couldn't adjust them. I used to love my old 5 wood but it got replaced by a 3 hybrid at 20°. On a good day I use my 3 wood off the deck really well (usually in the summer), but when it's a bit cooler / heavier ground I struggle to hit it. The 3 hybrid seems too short in distance, so maybe...Great video, definitely thought provoking. Well done.
I play a 5 wood at 18.5 degrees and it's one of my most favorite clubs in my bag. It's my go-to if I need to hit a fairway.
I don't hit a 5-wood, but I do play a 3-wood. Just got fitted for the Srixon F85 and it is an absolute monster. It would be interesting to see what you think of their range of drivers and woods!
Got an R11 4 wood looking to upgrade to something newer Callaway a Rogue maybe 5 wood. Have fairways improved much since 2012.
I have a Callaway GBB Epic 3+. I bought it to hit from the tee as a strong 3W at 13.5* on tight holes. I can't control it @ 13.5 degrees but it works at 15.5 degrees. 215 yd carry from a tee with a little fade. Never used off the deck. I use a 20.5 degree hybrid on par 5 fairways - 210 carry. I love adjustable clubs because I'm a tinkerer. @James... you're looking at hitting only one club longer into your par 5 green and probably from a better spot with this club, so why would you use a longer shaft? I think the 17 degree Epic Flash 5W is perfect for you. Just the opinion from a hacker.
I game an Epic flash 3 wood, just added 1 degree of loft to make it 16 at the range the other day, ball flight was a tad higher and more consistent for me.
I use my Wilson Deep Red 5 wood. Can’t adjust it but at 18 degrees it’s a fairway finder for me. ......... I do ‘tinker’ with my driver & 3 wood.
I'm glad 5 woods are coming back into vogue. They are underated AF
2 fairway woods, Cally XR16 non adjustable 3 wood rocket and Tmag M6 7 wood, which is a beautiful club from 200+ into greens
I use a 3 wood and a 4 hybrid. Also what is your opinion on having a 4 hybrid vs 5 wood, I'm interested in seeing what switching to a 5 wood would do to my game.
I’ve got a Nike vapor speed 3W that I’ve cranked down to 13.5deg after tinkering at the range. Much prefer it that way. Now considering testing this 5w epic flash 😉👌🏼
