I play the F-60 4W (16.5°) and 3W (15°) and like both of them. I also have the MX-560 driver (9.5°), and since I reshafted it with a UST Pro Force V2 65 gm shaft, I like it a lot better too.

I was wondering about the face depth, I like a shallower face on my 3-wood and alot of the woods out there now have a deeper face does the f-60 cpme off the fairway pretty easy.

I have an F-50 but the F-60 has a similar profile. It's pretty shallow faced and launches off the fairway very well - partly because of the shaft that's on it.

Great clubs. IMO, Mizuno woods are very underrated.

I have the 5 wood. Don't be swayed by the hot list comments. Its one of the easiest clubs to work and hit off the tee and the fairway. In fact am considering getting the 3 wood version.

I tried the f-60 at the simulator and I was very surprised by how well I was hitting hit because I never thought much of mizuno woods. I would definatly get it since it can be bought for around $130 and even less on ebay.

Thats funny RocketSauce, because I just got a F-60 4 wood as well with a ACCRA stiff shaft on it for $31!!! I have only had it for 2 weeks and it is my favorite most versatile club in my bag. I had a callaway big bertha 3 wood and the f-60 blows it out of the water. I have gained control and haven't lost any distance switching to a 4 wood.

thats awesome man. mine just has the stock exsar shaft in it, but $52 for a brand new F-60 is a good deal. im glad to hear you havent lost any distance over your Callaway 3 wood. the reason i bought the 4 wood is so when i play certain courses i can take my 3 & 5 wood out of the bag and just use a 4 wood and add an extra wedge. i still love my Sonartec GS Tours, but i dont always need to carry a 3 and a 5 wood

So is it a good buy for $120 on golfsmith?

Holy crap, did you guys get them from a store seller on Ebay? If so, what's their seller ID?!!? I've been waiting to get one of these.

i suppose at Golfsmith that might be considered a good price. but i would never pay that much for one when you can get a brand new one for HALF of that online

I bought mine at a golf expo for around $80 .

I love mine. It's perfect off the tee and I only hit it off the fairway once, but it led to my first birdie ever! I use it off the tee ALOT. I place the same course quite frequently and I know where I get into trouble going long with my driver and the F-60 is just beautiful. I think the face is a little bit LESS shallow than most. My dad has a cobra speed and its a good bit more shallow than my F-60.

[Guest]

How is it for hitting off the fairway? And also what shaft would you recommend for a swing speed of about 90-100?

[Fourputt]

Keep in mind that the F-60 3W is made in 2 lofts, 13° and 15° and they play quite differently from each other. I have the 15° and it's quite easy to hit from fairway and light rough. Never tried the 13°, so I can't comment on that.
