I have recently started hitting my Nike Ignite 3W that I have. It is a few years old. I really hit this thing well and I get good distance out of it. My question is, should I look at upgrading to a newer 3W? Are any of the newer ones any hotter than this one? I am pretty sure that I need a new shaft in this one so I may just do that depending on the responses I see here.

Read your post again. The answer to "should I replace something I hit well" is no. I wouldn't even mess with the shaft as long as you keep hitting it well.

EDIT: It might be worth trying the newest Nike fairways, I guess, but I'm a Nike **** and even I went Taylormade on my 1-3-5.

I guess I am going to have to change that....I just started entering my scores on GHIN. I only have 7 scores in there and it is just taking my lowest one or two rounds to get the index. While this is an official index, it will most likely go up to around a 5 once I get my 20 in.

Why is the question so weird? I have never tried any new equipment as far as a 3W goes, so I have no clue if any of the clubs are hotter. Yeah I hit the 3W good, but what is wrong with trying to find a club that I hit longer and better? Just because someone has a low handicap, does that mean they have to know everything there is to know about golf, or just that they can shoot good scores with the equipment they have? So am I just supposed to wait until I start hitting my current 3W bad before I think of upgrading??

    • Wordle 1,645 3/6* ⬛🟦⬛⬛🟦 🟦⬛⬛🟦⬛ 🟧🟧🟧🟧🟧 There is a group I know that posts their results on Facebook whenever they solve in 1 or 2 guesses. I asked one how they were so successful and evidently there is one type that provides word clues. Never seen it, but that could enhance your chances!
    • Day 445 - 2025-12-19 Hit some balls at AMGC today before getting on a flight and driving back to home through some not-so-awesome weather. The backswing is starting to feel pretty good. I have to clean up the knees a little.
    • Day 25: did my drill with foam balls in the garage for a good 20 minutes. Worked on my hands not being as deep. 
    • I unknowingly ordered what would sort of be considered a staff bag. It is the 14 divider version of the Titleist staff bag and was stated on the website to be a staff bag "light" (Titleist Tour Premium Cart Stadry), but it is pretty big. Love it though.
    • Day 39 (19 Dec 25) - weekly men’s group shootout today - we had as a “fifth” in our foursome the course teaching pro.  With the solid winds playing havoc, it was great having him to offer insight and counsel on what to take into to account. Mind you, he did not recommend specific club but rather to what consider and how to plan.  What a great day for course management education at the next level.
