Ditto on the previous comment - go hit a bunch of them, and pick out your favorite with the right shaft. Nothing will beat a personal fit...

although this is a good thought, its not always possible

for me, I refuse to buy the latest and greatest equipment, as i wont pay full retail thats why its good to ask opinions here (and take it w somewhat of a grain of salt) all clubs are so personal preference, but some people like the same stuff
"My swing is homemade - but I have perfect flaws!" - Me

What yardage gap are you trying to fill? That TM 19* Rescue 3 should go a mile.

Find a store and try different ones until you find one that fits you best. You can ask 100 people and get 50 different clubs.

While the taylormade and callaway clubs are nice, I have been an Adams user from the start and I love my Tight Lies GT. Picked it up on ebay for around $30 and it never fails from the tee, fairway or rough. Yea, its not expensive and fancy, but it works and thats all that matters. It wont be leaving my bag for a long time.

I have had good experiences with the Tight Lies Adams series, as well as more recent Adams fairway woods. The Tight Lies (and others, such as Redline) are very low profile, which is nice when you are hitting off the deck.

Awards, Achievements, and Accolades

I've been searching for a proper 3w, and believe I've settled on the Tour Edge Exotics CB1 I picked up recently. Perfect size at around 180cc, and a great compromise on face height that makes it easy to hit off the turf, but is also tall enough to hit off the tee with confidence. This thing is a cannon, I've been working out some swing issues and started hitting 3w more often and the total distance of this club is great. It has a very nice feel as well, and the stock NV shaft is a perfect match for mid trajectory that works for distance but could still land on a green if needed.

    • Day 42 - A lot of pushed shots yesterday, so today was work on fixing that. Partly grip, partly opening my hips more. 
    • Day 297: back to mirror work tonight. Working on slow movement for feels from the wrist stuff. 
    • Day 22: 5/13/25 Putting through gates and weight shift drills with a wedge.
    • I would be happy to hang out with you guys but as of now @DaveP043 and I are planning to stay in Cranberry Township. There’s a bit of travel between the two places, but maybe we can work something out.
    • Personally I have no issues with even the steroid-era figures such as Bonds, McGwire, and Sosa being inducted into the hall. My reasoning there is we already have nearly a half-dozen known steroid users in the hall, including those inducted after their steroid usage was already common knowledge. David Ortiz and Pedro Martinez (as well as Ivan Rodriguez, Adrian Beltre, and Todd Helton) both failed the same wave of anonymous drug tests that saw Sammy Sosa shunned by the nation, and he's in the hall. Piazza admitted to using Andro (the same thing McGwire was juicing with) and amphetamines. Greenies were commonplace in MLB clubhouses and used by countless stars, alongside cocaine, from at least the 60's all the way up until the early 2000's. There are at least a dozen other pros in the hall that have allegations from teammates who claim to have directly witnessed steroid usage. Even Nolan Ryan has stated that he thought steroid usage was a widespread problem in the sport as early as the mid to late 70's. I'm of the opinion that once that genie is out of the bottle, and it most certainly has been for decades now, it's a bit silly to pretend those already inducted are somehow morally superior for being not quite as astronomically and suspiciously good at baseball when using steroids. Hitters were using steroids, pitchers were using steroids (funny how we saw the number of complete games fall off a cliff at the same time that steroid enforcement was being ramped up), it's an even playing field as far as I'm concerned. To quote The Incredibles, "When everyone is super, no one will be".  As for Pete Rose it would appear that by all accounts he never bet as a player and only ever bet on his own team while managing. It's understandable to prohibit any involvement in the sport after it was discovered, but it's not something that gave him any advantage in reaching his level of achievement in the sport.  As for Joe Jackson, I personally don't think he should have been banned in the first place. He actively refused the bribe, tried to report the plot to the owner of the White Sox, and his alleged confession only occurred after the White Sox's team attorney got him roaring drunk immediately prior to the grand jury testimony. Every confessed conspirator also stated that he never attending any of their meetings or discussed plans with them. Not to mention the fact that if he WAS trying to fix the series he did an absolutely terrible job of it considering he was the best performing player on either team by far setting a World Series record that stood until 1964 and went error-free while gunning down at least one runner at home plate.
