I'm looking to add a 3W and a 5W to my bag. The local golf shop has an Adams Ovation 3W and 5W for $60 each. Does anyone have any experience with these?

I'm open to pretty much anything. I've actually never used fairway woods, so I'm open to any brand. I'd like to keep them under $50 each, if possible, just in case I find that I'm not able to hit them yet.

In my Grom bag:
Driver: R7 Burner 10.5*
Woods: Big Bertha '04 (4/5,7)
Irons: a3OS (3H, 4H, 5H, 6-PW)
Wedges: SM (52*, 56*)Putter: Detour 2

I really like the Callaway 04 Big Bertha woods. They can be had for $50 or less if you look. They were one of Callaways most extensive offerings. You could get any thing from a 3 wood to I think a 9 wood with + woods available too. Very easy to hit from all lies and accurate too. I don't list it in my sig, but my 04 BB 4+ is probably my favorite wood. My "golf disease" keeps me trying new clubs though so it rotates in and out.

Driver - Speedline Fast 10: 10.5 Matrix HD Stiff
Woods - Big Bertha 5 wood
R9 4 wood
Irons - 07 X Forged 4-PW
Wedges - X Forged 50, 54, 58 Vokey Spin Milled 64Ball - Tour i Gamer V2

I briefly played with an Adams Ovation 3 wood - it sounded worse than the square drivers did when they first came out

    • Day 1 (19 Jan 26) - after a week lay-off due to travels, felt great to get in some drills in the backyard today.  Started with lead arm only short pitches focused on squared face and light divot post ball.  Haven’t done this in a while and it showed, with some skulls and slices.  Settled into easy flighted balls - wrapped up with standard two handed swings.  Good restart to the daily drills. 
    • That depends what you do within those two.  Are they your only options?   Check out Fit for Golf if you get a moment.  It's linked on the sidebar;  I did it for two years, stopped for a really bad reason, and I plan to get back to it soon.   Mike Carroll also has a great free podcast about a lot of topics in golf fitness. 
    • Day 19, 1/19.  Finished work in time to spend 25 minutes hitting balls (hit 15) indoors, off a mat, into the net.  Usual focus.    
    • Day 30 - 2026-01-19 Got 10 minutes in on the mat / net working on exagerrating movements I'm working on. And grip. Also worked with my friendly AI to summarize key negative tendencies I have so that I can build a personal checklist to follow. Will do more mirror work tonight.
