I have seen lots of my golf buddies with woods in their bag and I could use one too.

Been comparing between the Callaway X Fairway Woods and Nickent Golf 3DC RC Ironwoods.

Callaway X Fairway Woods - they say that the X sole design is the newest thing (marketing gommic?) that will help performancee and clean turf interaction. $179-$219

Nickent Golf 3DC RC Ironwoods - looks a bit ugly but it says that it;s perfectly balanced and the price is $129-149.

Thoughts or anybody used that?

Last spring, I bought a 3 iron/20 degree Nickent Ironwood in my bag to replace my 3 iron. After using it for awhile, I realized that it was so much easier to hit than my long irons and fairway woods, that I replaced my 5 wood with a 2 iron equivalent and then recently replaced my 4 iron with the 4 iron equivalent. Most of my friends that I play with carry at least one hybrid, and most carry two. I know that carrying three is a leap, but I use whatever to play consistently.

    • You still got to lift your arms. You basically just roll your wrist over in the 1st half of the backswing.   
    • Day 288 6-17 Low point control without ball. hit quite a few swing where i was wanting the club to hit the ground.  Added a ball with towel behind it, just to see where im at. Wasn't horrible but need some more work. Pretty much full speed swings. 
    • Current state of the program.  I can only do 25-50% swing speed, probably under 50% since I was hitting the ball out to the 150 yard marker (yay!),  to get the arms down and somewhat turn the body through impact. I mean somewhat. Arms down + body turn don't like to mesh at all. Anything faster and the body does stupid uncoordinated stuff. Mostly, I am stuck in the old pattern of staling the turn and flipping at the ball.  So, until I see progress. I am not posting anything here. 
    • Thanks for the video! Do you think a ball between the arms type of training aid would get me in a better position? I also have a Tour Striker Swing Trainer (PlaneMate-like contraption) if that could be helpful.    
    • There are some little things here and there — the shoulder turn is a bit flat, and the arms move around you a bit too much too. Take a look at this video:
