I'd like to hear your thoughts and experiences both positive and negative on these. They can be had really cheaply right now at $70 new online. I've read mostly good things.

I have a XLS 3 wood and absoutely love it. I hit it the same distance off the tee as my driver, so it saves me when the driver isnt on. I think it is a very nice club, it gives off the perfect sound when you hit, if you dont hear the sound its a bad shot. it isnt a loud noise, but its one you will like to hear. I would recommend this club!

I used a 3 and 5 wood this year and have done well with them. The main thing I liked about these was they look at setup...something about the way the top of the club tapers down from the face gives it a comfortable look at address. These aren't nearly as loud as the driver which has a really loud hollow sound.

I had an xls 3 wood and ended up trading a friend for his titleist 3 wood the other day. I was having serious control problems with mine. Mine had the fit on gold in stiff flex. I would hit about 1 out of 10 toward my target. Slowing the swing didnt help. However he hits it perfectly. Im guessing the shaft just didnt fit my swing. The 3wood i traded him for has a ture temper s300 and i hit it great but its a lot heavier shaft.

Make sure and get one with a shaft that fits your swing.

Great looking club and great sound(much better than the xls driver sound)

    • Several years ago I got paired with a twosome of golfers, one of which had a maybe 5-year-old son with him. The kid had a putter and a 7i with him, and on some holes he would drop a ball near the green, chip on, and putt. If the kid started to get distracted, the dad would ask, "Do you need to rest?" The kid would nod yes, and then take his dad's seat riding in the cart for a couple of holes. It was a slow day, and the kid was polite and friendly. We got through 18 just fine. (If it had been a crowded course day, I'm sure it would have been less pleasant.)
    • Caution for the seniors on weight training: Listen to your body. (I'm 75) I got a recent session with an orthopedist after a training-related injury. I put too much weight on a new resistance machine at the gym and ended up with bursitis in my left hip. Of course, it's the hip I dislocated back in 2023. I have my first physical therapy session tomorrow. I remarked that some days I can do 45 lbs. chest press - two sets - without much effort. But other days it drops down to 30 (😩) with just one set. (Complicating factor: I had digestive problems in this fall and lost about 20 lbs., with slip in muscle tone.) Orthopedist said that I want to feel some resistence, but that I should go with lots of reps with manageable weights rather than trying to set some sort of lift-pound record. I'm sure I'll get some refinements on lifting during tomorrow's PT.
