Fairway wood with a small head

[aca247]

i am looking for a godd fairway wood with a small head the best part of my game is my hybrids but the worst is my fairway woods not off the tee. i have looked at the cleveland hi-bore xls and the taylormade burner high launch. but then today i found the adams a40s and wilson fybrid

I always wanted to try the Adams you mentioned when I was in the market... but I ended up e-baying the Sonartec in my sig, and it is the sweetest 3-wood I have had the pleasure of playing. It is a deadly straight club for finding the fairway and the head is on the smaller side. Not sure if they are still available, but most likely you can find one someplace if you look around.

Also, Callaway Pre-owned probably has some of those immensely popular Steelheads that many people still play today... they were a classic and are still one of the best in my opinion.

Give the Titleist 909F3 a try. I've found it to be a great 3-wood off the tee.

Since I like Mizuno drivers I looked for a recent 3, and 5 wood design with a shaft I'm familiar with. I found some Mizuno F-60 fairway woods on eBay with the UST ProForce V2 shafts. I bid and won them and I am happy playing them. My suggestion would be try the demo bin at Golfsmith or Edwin Watts or a large store near you. Then look on eBay for the clubhead you like with a shaft you are familiar with. That is a cost effective way to get what you need. IMHO

you can still find them brand new on eBay sometimes, the Sonartec GS Tours. excellent fw woods with small heads. also, the Mizuno F-60 fw woods have small, traditional shape heads

Well that means you may find the heads you want and then get the shafts you want fitted later. Heck, you can buy the shafts you want on eBay. They aren't left or right handed. You still want to find the heads at the lowest prices possible. eBay allows you to bid and win the items you want at prices you can afford. That is it's beauty, but I will allow left handed clubs and heads aren't the most plentiful. Good Luck.

I can rep for the Taylormade high launch burners. Very easy to hit off of the deck. I just picked up some Titleist 906F2's but I can't try them out till Christmas. I noticed a majority of the Titleist tour players were still playing this wood, even though the 909F series have been out for a while, figured there must be something good about them.

Check out the Adams BUL and BTY also.

I just reshafted my old Cleveland Launcher with a V2 shaft and it made a big difference. Alot straighter and more length while still maintaining the look and feel of the smaller head.

Too bad Sonartec went out of business. They had some great looking clubs. A lot of people (myself included) are afraid to venture away from the big names and that is probably why they went under. I had a buddy who relied on his Sonartec 3-wood pretty much on every tee shot and hit the thing like 270. I used to laugh at the thing but then I tried it and it was real solid. The Titleist fairway woods still have small heads. I have a 980F from a few years back and I have seen the newer F3 and the head looks pretty small too.

I think you can still find some new taylor made retro series like this one



head is really small and feel at impact really fantastic.
the only problem is that they are only available in 13° or 16° raylor

The Titleist 909F2 fairways have really impressed me.

Give the Nike DyMo a go. Pretty small head and an open face for workability, PLUS... there dropping in price cuz the new clubs are coming out soon.

I have to second this vote. The Nike DyMo fairway woods are exceptionally easy to hit and feel great. And with the current pricetag of $100 or less you cannot go wrong
