Looking at a 5W with graphite shaft for longer courses where my 2H won't do the job. Have seen the Callaway X, Mizuno F50 and TaylorMade R7Ti - all for $100 or less.

Any comments on the above or other options I should consider?

The '07 Burner is a great wood! I have a three wood and it is my favorite club in my bag and it really helps on long holes and keeps it in the fairway like a champ! At least try it before you buy a new 5 wood!

Whats your loft on the 2h?

I think if you have a 2h and a 3w you could just choke down and take an easy swing with the 3w, no point in throwing an extra club in there.

If you don't have a 3w buy a 3w or a strong 4

I have a 3W and a 22degree hybrid. 5W seemed the obvious gap to fill, but now you have me thinking about a second hybrid - 1H or 2H!!

I think hybrids are the way to go. I plan on eliminating woods all together with my hybrids. I feel as though they are much easier to hit and help me be consistent with all my other clubs.

Another Cleveland hybrid might be cheaper (and easier to hit from what I can tell!!)...

Are the Burners worth the money? I can get a Callaway X for $100 or a Cleveland Hibore Hybrid for $80.

I own a burner 3w and 5w

I bought them at the start of this year and cant praise them enough, especially the 5w!

I am not far enough away to take many hacks with the 3w but I can tell you this, they are super easy to hit for some reason from the turf. They go long straight and I love them at address, super confident with them in my hands.

I prefer to take a wack at the 5w over my bobby jones hybrids, and I really like the hybrids!

    • I was there just for sunday, and it went smoothly. Thanks @Hardspoon for helping in setting this up. 
    • I say this in believing the guy should just pay you and he's a d**k for not.  Do you guys play by the USGA rules strictly? If so, then the claim is valid. It sucks, but it is. Again, he is a d**k for being that nitpicky over it. If he wants to play the game of waiting for you to finish to have his ah-ha moment, again he's a d**k. Though, if the putter is non-conforming, you maybe able to claim that it is not a club?  Just talk to your group and don't invite him back.     
    • Couple of added points.  It was pink and maybe 18 long.  I am 6 1   And he waited until the round was over to say something when he was in my 4 some in the other cart. 
    • I would have paid you. I think it's a reasonable assumption that the extra putter was not in play.  Having said that "Did you declare the extra putter out of play?"  This person seems like a bit of a weenie and he is also setting a dangerous precedent. Let's say he wins next month. Then when it's your turn to pay up, you could refuse. Telling him "I timed you on hole 8 and you searched for your ball and found it at 3 minutes and 1 second. So, you should have taken stroke, plus distance and didn't." You could then show him your stopwatch feature on your phone where you timed it out to 3:01 and say "See."  I actually would just let it go and assume the guy is a weenie. Because doing stuff like that takes the fun out of friendly bets. If he can't afford to pay up, he shouldn't bet.
