I am a high handicap looking for a fairway wood to hit off of the tee. Looking for a 3 or 4 wood. I went to hit the woods and a driver but the monitor quit working after 5 swings with the driver. The swing speed was 94.2 to 94.8 MPH. I did hit a few woods and liked the looks of the callaway the best but I have no numbers to see what I will work the best for me. I was looking for something easy to hit and would like to know what you would suggest.

T4m,

i was doing the same thing saturday, looking for a new 3 wood... and stopped into a Golf Galaxy and tested out the Xhot, Rocketballz, and the nike covert....     I hit the X-hot the farthest, but i have a problem with the Fade lol....   So the guy who was helping me out suggested a adjustable head, which i was going to suggest anyways, and he brought me the Cobra Amp..

after using the Cobra Amp, i ended up buying it,,, along with a matching Driver..

And today after getting off work i headed right to the driving range to try out my two new toys :)

And was pleasantly surprised and how straight i was hitting the ball..   yes i did have both the 3wood and driver head adjusted to close....   But I was hitting the ball a lot straighter than i was with my old Xcg3, and old 3wood...

I too was a guy who basically was looking for a 3wood to hit off the tee's since i at using my driver.  But after today, i feel like i could use my new driver with no issue....  I even went from a stiff shaft in the Xcg3, to a Regular flex in the Amp..

I will say this wasnt just a fluke of me hitting 5 good balls, this was hitting a good full bucket of balls with the 3wood + driver....

It is what it is

If you are just considering these two clubs, I would suggest the X Hot vs. the RFE.  The Xhot is a larger head, 460cc vs 440cc (unless you get the RFE 13.5 loft which is 460cc) is more forgiving and easier to hit for those of us with a higher handicap.

Even good players have issues with the RFE. Higher caps should probably avoid it.

    • Day 134 (26 Apr 24) - played Minnesott today, worked with the mid-irons and approaches (especially the 7i).  Scoring was a little higher, but I was focused on making the needed adjustments to the swing to achieve desired distances.  
    • I honestly believe if they play longer tees by 300-400 yards, closer to or over 7,000 yards, more rough, tougher greens, women's golf will become much more gripping.  BTW, if it weren't for Scottie killing it right now, men's golf isn't exactly compelling.
    • Day 542, April 26, 2024 A lesson no-show, no-called (he had the wrong time even though the last text was confirming the time… 😛), so I used 45 minutes or so of that time to get some good work in.
    • Yeah, that. It stands out… because it's so rare. And interest in Caitlin Clark will likely result in a very small bump to the WNBA or something… and then it will go back down to very low viewership numbers. Like it's always had. A small portion, yep. It doesn't help that she lost, either. Girls often don't even want to watch women playing sports. My daughter golfs… I watch more LPGA Tour golf than she does, and it's not even close. I watch more LPGA Tour golf than PGA Tour golf, even. She watches very little of either. It's just the way it is. Yes, it's a bit of a vicious cycle, but… how do you break it? If you invest a ton of money into broadcasting an LPGA Tour event, the same coverage you'd spend on a men's event… you'll lose a ton of money. It'd take decades to build up the interest. Even with interest in the PGA Tour declining.
