...eave no credit card un-maxed out...

you may rest in peace, oh mighty knight, since your quest shalt be an easy one!

V-steels dropped in prices like crazy since the r5 and r7 introductions By the way - if I remember correctly - iacas has some good experiences with the r7 fairway wood. I believe they come in steel version as well. You might want to try them out before you settle on 2 years old technology (like I did ).

I was very impressed with the Taylor Made 580XD 3 Wood. Where I work, we still have some for sale that have been fitted with Fujikura shafts. Possibly the most crisp sounding 3 wood I've ever hit. However, I haven't been able to play it on a course yet, only hit it in our net at work. I've hit both the R7 TP and ST Fairway woods at work as well both felt solid and gave me confidence at address.

I only tried the Fusion FT-3 driver, so I don't have a real opinion on the Fusion Fairway woods.

I agree with the other poster who liked the NVG2 Fairway woods, although I disliked the driver.

(Hope my boss doesn't read this thread, as we're not supposed to be hittin' clubs on the clock )

My favorite 3-wood was an old Titleist PT knockoff I got with set of DCI clones (all I could afford after college!). I used it to tee off for 5-6 years because I couldn't hit a driver to save my life. I sold it this year (with the rest of the clones) to a buddy and have been hitting a TM 200 series 3-wood which I really like but I do regret (a little) about getting rid of the PT clone.

For me was my old Nike T-40 steel shafted 3-wood. I have a TM R5 and don't use it most of the time b/c I don't have the same confidence off the deck as I did with the Nike.

I have the Cleveland Launcher 3W 15 degrees and I love everything about it. It has a really hot face with great workability and forgiveness I personally think. I can use it from anywhere, from the tee box to the edge of the green. It fits my game perfectly.

Fairway Wood: 2006 Cleveland Launcher Steel FW 15 Stiff
Hybrid: Cleveland Halo graphite stiff
Irons: Titleist 704.CB 3-PW Stiff
Wedges: Titleist Vokey 52, 56, 60Putters: Scotty Cameron Newport 2, Ping G5i Craz-EBall: Titleist Pro V1

      Titleist GT280 (Mini Driver)

      By WillieT ·

      Kind of reminds me of my first driver - a TM R580 at a whopping 400cc.  Still have one in the stable - and like to hit it on occasion.  Makes me wonder if the Mini-drivers of today are a testing ground to drivers of tomorrow of the powers that be opt to roll back driver head size in conjunction to the ball roll back to limit the overall distance.  I’ve not done a lot of research on shot distances between the mini and regular drivers, but figured there is some.  Will be something to follow as the mini-driver unfolds.

      Are You "Loyal" to One Golf Ball?

      By retoid ·

      I agree with you, at least in regards to myself and playing. I can't really speak much for others. I assume that some people who are playing golf very often can notice more drastic differences. That being said, I do notice some differences here and there and sound and feel definitely have some say in which ball I end up liking. But that seems more psychological than physical. I've only been playing golf regularly for a year now and I'll play almost any ball since I often lose balls. However, since I've been able to get out once a week for a while now, I am down to losing only about 2-3 balls from losing 10-14 per round. Which feels huge for me and so I've begun to narrow down the balls I choose to play with. I've gone through a box of Vice Pro Plus, Vice Pro, Sugar, Titleist DT Trufeel and Kirklands. Bought a bucket of 350 used balls which had a majority of Srixon Soft Feels in there. I decided to give the Soft Feels a try and have really been enjoying them quite a bit. Only yesterday did I hit a Pro V1 for the first time and it felt quite nice. However, that all being said, I have to admit, I've played my best overall with Vice Pro Plus balls. I get the most distance from these balls and am able to hit them quite well. I am not sure on green side spin/grip, I think I'd prefer them to check up a bit more. But I believe one really big factor for me with these balls is that I usually club down when hitting them because I gain so much distance off of them and I also tend to bring my swing speed down which causes me to have a more accurate swing and ball strike. As opposed to trying to whack the snot out of the ball each time, which ends up in a slice 75% of the time. I do love testing out new balls though, sound and feel is always fun to experience.

      More Torqueless Putters

      By retoid ·

      I am in the same boat, I'd love to test a LAB OZ but nobody here has them either and I've never seen one played on any courses I've been on. Nor can I afford/commit to blindly buy something at this price and not know how it works for me. I've been playing a cheapy $60 Wilson Harmonized M1 for a long time and was looking at new putters but the price of a new putter is really off-putting. Thankfully I played in a tournament in November and ended up winning a brand new Taylormade TR B31. Will probably be playing this for a few years until I get to try something like the LAB OZ and once it's been discounted if I like it.
