I'm currently using a Cleveland FL 17*.  They list it as a High Launch 3 Wood, but 17* is a 4 Wood, no matter how you label it.

I've had the R9 and R11 4 Wood, but neither gave me the reliable performance of the Cleveland.  The Miyazaki C.Kua stock shaft is one of the best stock shafts on the market.

I use a 17° TaylorMade RBZ 3HL, which is essentially a 4 wood... I love it.

Ping G15 17*4 wood. Love the versatility, used to carry a 3 & 5 but this replaces them both and makes room for an extra wedge.

Driver - Ping G30 10.5* : Fairway - Ping G30 18* : Hybrids - Titleist 915H 21* & 915 H 24* : Irons - Mizuno JPX 850 Forged 5 - GW : Wedges, Vokey 54.14, Vokey 58.12 : Putter - Scotty Cameron Studio Select Newport 2 or Ping Craz-E-R  : Ball - Bridgestone B330RX, Cart - Cliqgear 3.5

I haven't carried a 4-wood since like 1999 or 2000... But when I didI had a cheap cobra offset baffler I found st the salvation army for $3... I'm thinking about getting a tour edge exotics xcg3 4-wood... I'm only 25 in case you were wondering....

I don't have a fairway wood right now... But a 4-wood might be the play... I have a Driver then I skip to 2i... Thinking about an exotics xcg3 4w though

I had a Callaway 3 & 5w hyper x in my bag that I never once hit a decent shot off of. ...never hit a wood well in general for that matter. I basically gamed a driver then dropped to a 3i if I was feeling lucky... maybe higher. Just bought a used titleist 4w 904f 17* that I immediately began crushing 230yds straight, right off the mat. DG S300 stiff shaft. Cannot wait to play a round with it. Funny thing is that it's a few years older than my Callaways. Sometimes it is the arrow after all!

I would like to thank my many sponsors:

 

Cobra Amp 9.5* Driver; Aldila RIP Stiff 55g shaft

Titleist 904f 17* 4W; S300 shaft

Callaway X-22 3-P, reg flex, 1/2" long, 2* up

Titleist Vokey 252.08 & 256.14 wedges; standard

Ping Anser Putter (because it gives me the confidence I need to 4 putt)

Winn Dri-Tac Jumbo grips all around

Top-flite Gamer V2 ball

I'm 6'4", 210lbs, 34yo.

    • Day 129: 5/4/24 Stack training but could not certify my warmup speed. Dealing with a pulled neck muscle. Chips and pitches at a local course for about 15 minutes.
    • Typically less than 50. I find this can be affected by the "CART" signs on a given course. I don't like taking my rangefinder out of the cart and carrying it around to the green. I am very fearful I will leave it somewhere. 
    • First ever holed out greenside bunker shot! It's crazy it took this long to finally get one during a round, but the cold streak is officially over. Hole 6 on the Palmer Course at PGAN. I hit my driver like 225 into a really stiff wind, then worm burned a hybrid into the bunker. I was about I dunno, 40-45 feet away. Birdie! Let's go! The red Xs the approximate location of each shot.  Really fun!! 
    • Day 23: Rained all day, so no ball hitting. Worked indoors on top of the backswing feel, and also putted around the living room working on bead.
    • Played Four Oaks in Dracut today going back to the 2 man scramble match play format. My brother and I shot a team 81 winning 3 and 2. Had so many good shots today using a more centered turn. Seems to have really iginited my golf game. We'll see if I can keep it going.
