I currently have a nike SQ 3 wood. It feels nice and looks nice, but i can't hit it consistently straight. I have the R9 460 driver, so i figured i might like the 3 wood. I can't really tell how i hit it at dicks, because the one closest to me doesn't have a simulator. Any thoughts?

What shaft is in the Nike SQ wood?

I have an r9 t3 with mitsubishi fubuki (13 degrees) and a r9 4 with mitsubishi matore (17 degrees). They are the best feeling woods that I've ever had the pleasue of hitting. I always carry the 4, and depending on the length of the course I switch my driver out for the 3 wood.

The nike has a mitsubishi graphite shaft. I think it is the fubuki.

The nike has a mitsubishi graphite shaft. I think it is the fubuki.

If it is the black and yellow shaft it is the stock mitsubishi rayon 'for nike' shaft. IIRC the fubuki is a white shaft.

The R9 3 wood is the best I have used. I actually bought the R9 driver on the strength of it, but the driver wasn't a good fit for me. The 3 wood is a great all rounder. It's one of the easier 3 woods to hit from the fairway and offers a good blend of forgiveness and workability. Maybe try a 17 degree 4 wood, it might even give you a bit of extra distance with the extra hight you will get.

Yeah it is the rayon, i just looked at it. Thanks for the help. I will look at it soon, right after i get a better putter. Thanks!

I have the R9 3 wood as well, and like the R9 469, it is a great club. Great off the deck and of the tee. It's decently forgiving and very workable. I love it. And, of course the FCT is a great feature.
