Another questions for the board. I am currently playing a very old 3 wood, an Adams Tight Lies 3 (they old solid grey head). I am going to go tonight after work and hit a few different 3 woods, and possibly go ahead and upgrade with that club. I hit the Adams decent, but was thinking that an upgrade may help some. A couple I am interested in are the Callaway X and the Mizuno F60. I know the launch monitor will help tell me some, but I was just curious as to how much change I may see switching from this older club? Will there be any noticeable distance change, forgiveness, etc.? My thought is that the newer clubs (the one that fits my swing best) should probably a little longer but I was not sure. Anyone know for sure? Thanks!

personally i think you will FEEL a big difference. not sure about results though. Id also give the Mizuno MX-700 a shot too if i were you. I have a Mizuno F-60 4 wood (its not listed in my signature) that i use sometimes (just recently bought it) and i love it. i just wish they made the MX-700 in a 4 wood or i would've gotten that. a buddy of mine uses the Callaway X 3 wood and kills the ball with it. great sound too

I tried the Callaway X and the F60 last night at golftown on their simulator. For me the Callaway was a better result and I was hitting it great. Lucky for me it was also the cheaper option so I grabbed it.

It's a bit expensive but the 909f2 is an AMAZING 3 wood IMHO.

I bought a mizuno F60 at a golf expo not too long ago, and i love it. It's face is a bit less shallow than most and its suuuper easy to hit off the deck. I normally use it for off tee on shorter holes. It's perfect and easy to hit.

    • Ah.. my regular weekend league. Lol Scrambles are fine. Usually there's charity involved. So there's that. There are much worse events Im forced to attend twice a year. 
    • Does Justin Thomas have a massively underrated short game? It seems every time I look up he's hitting it close from a tough lie after short siding himself. What masterful touch
    • I freaking hate them. Too expensive, cheaters, food sucks, too dependent on weather, I keep telling myself never do it again but I'm a dummy
    • I enjoyed the A-B-C-D scramble we did at Kittyhawk before it shut down. Yes. The point was to meet the other members and get the season kicked off. Nobody took it too seriously. At least with that group, cheating wasn't a big issue.  As the D part of A-B-C-D, I enjoyed getting to play with one of the Association's top players. One year I played with the city champ. Man could he hit a ball.  It probably isn't something I'd want to do more than once a year, but it has its place.
