Thanks..

I am about to buy a new 3-wood and I have a 5 wood in my bag

The lengths I was thinking are

I am 5' 11"

3-wood-42 1/2

5-wood-41 1/2

I play my driver at 44 1/2 right now and have good distance and control. I think those lengths would be good, any thoughts?

With a ruler.   Just kidding, he he.  Standard lengths for 3 & 5 woods that have 75gram and heavier shafts is 42.75(3w) & 41.75(5w).  For shafts that are 74grams and lighter they are 43.0(3w) & 42.0(5w).  Now, that is supposed to be standard, but that doesn't mean oems are going to follow that guideline.  My Taylormade SF 5 wood comes an inch longer as stock, for instance.  Being 6'4", I like them a little longer anyway.  My driver is 45.5".

If I get a prolaunch blue 75 stiff and have it put on my 5 wood and cut it down to 41.75 inches, will there be a need for lead tape on the head?

I have a prolaunch blue 65 on my 5 wood now cut down to 41 1/2 and he had to put some lead tape on the head to keep the swing weight, I don't like the lead tape on the head, so would getting a prolaunch blue 75 fix this? I don't want lead tape on my club head, just don't like it....

thanks for the help

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.

      Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026.

      Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?
