yeah my main point was that the technology in that thing is over 2 years old and he is still playing it...they definitely did everything right with this club

ah ic, true.

I think you would find a lot of pros have had their 3w in the bag for a while- they find one that works and are reluctant to change.
Mine is a R7 steel head- it's the second best club in my bag-after my putter.

In my research on other forums about this subject, people always bring up the Nike T-60 as being a classic, as well as Sonartec SS-3.5, which I ordered off ebay the other day. I'm excited to give it a try!

Another vote for the Ping G10, i just replaced my HiBore XLS 3 wood with a Ping G10 4 wood, no distance loss and a perfect trajectory, very solid at impact... love it. Got it second hand with a prolaunch red for $100 which is even better :)

Hey guys whats your favorite fairway wood, 3w etc?

Callaway's Diablo Edge Tour is absolutely the best 3 wood ever made. Hands down, no doubt about it. I played with a kid in a tournament last week who has the same 3 wood, he had the same opinion of it as well. It was like we were two people speaking the same. Anyhow, get this 3 wood! I seriously hit the thing like a missle. The ball rockets off the clubhead! I can hit the thing 270 off the tee and have caught it a few times 270 from the fairway as well. Absolutely unbelieveable performance. Thank you Callaway! http://www.callawaygolf.com/Global/e...rwayWoods.html

I have a 9 wood that I like for a specific shot: low trajectory, ballooning at the end, and dropping with just a little roll.

I really have confidence and enjoy hitting my Nike SQ Dymo 2 5 wood. Its the square head which I usually don't like and a regular flex, which I usually don't like, but this club is straight down the pipe everytime and I can almost always hit a good shot with it no matter the lie. Not only my favorite fairway wood, but my favorite club in my bag

The Dymos are great.

I am physically incapable of hitting any 3 Wood produced after 1994. They go low, short, or sideways for me, which is why I play a couple of ancient Callaways that are probably buyable (if you can still find them, used, in a pro shop or on Ebay) for $11 each.

Callaway steel head plus, three wood is by far my favorite. I have a steel shaft in it with a little added weight. I always bring it to demo days to compare it to something newer and this club always makes it back into the bag. I can find three woods that are longer and run forever, but this club in the best for length and soft landings. I also have the same set-up in a five wood that I use when I take out my 2 iron.

Tour Edge Exotics. I own the older CB2 model and it is "hot". Check 'em out they do not advertise much, but very high quality... not cheap.

    • Day 24: did a stack session. Worked a bit on downswing feels during breaks. 
    • Day 444 - 2025-12-18 Light day of hotel room work. GEARS Summit v2.0 today. Good day.
    • Day 38 (18 Dec 25) - got out in the backyard with grandson this afternoon.  We got into a little game of pitching the ball from about 25yds to a target point just off the asphalt lane behind the backyard.  Goal - just clear it with a quick hop and stop.  Focused on using the wedge swing motion I was talking with the course pro yesterday….smooth and thru just bruising the grass.  In addition to a concentrated focus on technique, it also called for a quiet mind locked in on target point.  Rehearsed this with both the 50° and 55° wedges.  
    • I listened to the Shaun Webb one about the swing coach app. Sounds like a great thing and will (hopefully) be very useful for me. I do think the hosts are underestimating where AI could be in a few years. Right now it's just regurgitating stuff that it has been told or it has scrubbed from somewhere else and a human guiding things will be quite a lot more helpful than just the AI, but it's going to keep developing and it will reach the stage where it's figuring this stuff out on its own. Time will come when it will have you do a TPI style screen and take various height/arm length/leg length etc. measurements, have you tell it some history and your time constraints and goals and what not and it will watch a video of your swing face on and DTL and it will know exactly what you need to work on. 
    • I found it entertaining, but the announcing was lousy.  How did the measuring on the final shot start with Rory being closer and being told he won, and then with no explanation it turns out Scottie won?  Weird.
