Gentlemen:

Recently I purchased Mizuno F50 3 wood(15 degree). Very reasonable price too, $170 in LA area.

When I was in market for 3 wood, Golf magazine raved about the club twice, not just once. Right away, without testing I treated myself and never regret it since. Just like the review, very easy launch from thick rough or glassy fairway, good balance.

Now i would like to hear from you whether you agree or not. Bring it on.

I went to a shop with the intention of buying a Vsteel about six months back (I was playing a Cobra SZ and was getting too much right to left), and there on the used rack was a nearly new F50 15* 3-wood for $100. I snagged it, and you're right it's very easy to get in the air and long to boot. For me, it's generally straight or with a slight draw off the tee, and straight to a slight fade off the deck. I found it slightly more consistent and much easier to get in the air than the Vsteel and much more predictable than the SZ.

    • What's the rest of that story? Where was the ball going?
    • The criticisms are starting already 🤣 U.S. Open pro criticizes Shinnecock green conditions: 'Bumpy' After playing his first practice round at the 2026 U.S. Open, Michael Kim offered a less-than-glowing review of Shinnecock's "bumpy" greens.   The sand, I don't care about that. If the greens didn't come back as well for latest aerification, that would be a bit of a blunder on Shinnecock I think.   
    • Well, if your frame of reference spins twice during the swing, then Bryson's ab/adduction is more like 780 degrees so there! (Yes I'm being silly, but not sure it's any sillier than what your pal Andy is doing...)
    • Update: Brandon Sorsby has decided to enter the NFL Supplemental Draft. He will not play for Texas Tech in the upcoming season.  From my perspective, I think he did the right thing. I hope he gets the correct help for his gambling addiction. I say the right thing, because I would be worried that the stress from all of this now and throughout the entire year would not be beneficial towards his mental health.  If an NFL team picks him up, then there really isn't any pressure for him to play immediately. He can work on himself and his game for the NFL.  From Texas Tech,  "Texas Tech will continue to provide the support and recovery resources Brendan requires on this journey. Furthermore, Texas Tech will not seek return of any amounts already paid to Brendan through his NIL agreements with the University," Campbell wrote. "We wish our best to Brendan, and we offer our prayers to him and his family as he chases his dreams at the next level. This has been an unbelievably painful experience for us all, but I know that his true, underlying character and lessons learned through this experience will ultimately bring him great success on the field of play and in life." Which, I also the right thing to do.   
    • So, something I noticed yesterday at the range. My eyes and visualization of what the ball needs to do is way off. I put up an alignment stick about 10 yards down range. My initial thought was, "Oh crap". Even while wearing prescription sunglasses, and I know I am hitting it towards the sun, I couldn't pick up where the ball was at all.
