I am looking for a 3-wood to replace my 6 yr old Mizuno MP-001. I haven't done any research for a long time and not sure where to start.

thanks,

Just as an option, the Callaway Diablo Edge is on sale at Callaway Preowned.

They are 30% off till midnight tonight. Part of the deals of days promotion. Every 2 days there is a new deal.

"Like new" condition is brand new on that site. Got all my clubs there this time last year. Awesome deals.

Looks like $88 will get you a Callaway Edge 3W (till midnight)...

+ 1 on the Callaway Diablo Edge 3w.

I really like the club, until the very end of the season I used it in place of my driver. It's very forgiving, and in many cases I was hitting it just as long as my playing partners were hitting their drivers (though none are going to win a long drive competition).

Longest 3 wood out on the market is Tour Edge Exotics. If you want something more forgiving, check out Ping G15.

How forgiving are the Tour Exotics 3 Woods?

The XCG-3 is pretty darn forgiving, as the head is huge. Unlike some others, I don't know why the size is an issue. Most people shouldn't be hitting 3W out of the rough and don't need to work it. Some people struggle off the deck with the smaller headed CB series.

Unless you hit 3W alot off the tee, the TEE 4W works well for dual purpose. Ball flight is pretty high though.

Hey, i bought the Cleveland Launcher DST 3 wood and I love it. Its super light which has given me more swing speed which translates in more yardage and its also on sale for $149.99 as I bought the 2010 model....Highly recommended!!!!

I have a Cobra S9-1 in my bag right now that I love. I also have a Tour Edge XCG that was given to me. It has a stiff shaft, so I'm thinking of getting it re-shafted and giving it a whirl.

I have the XCG-3 strong 3 wood (used mainly off the tee) and I find it just as forgiving as any 3 wood I have ever owned. I can also hit it off the deck with no problem...great club and I highly recommend it for the OP...

TEE - XCG6, 13º, Matrix Ozik HD6.1, stiff
Wilson Staff - Ci11, 3-SW, TX Fligthed, stiff

Odyssey - Metal X #7, 35in

I just won a slightly used XCG-3+ wood for a $100 Regular flex. Can't wait to try it. Thanks for your recommendation.

Hi, my absolute "go-to-club" is a 15degree 2006 RAM FX9 3 Wood with Grafalloy Prolite Elite shaft. Does anybody know this shaft as I am looking to replace it in 2011 with a Titleist 910F in 13,5 or 15degrees
