Unless you're a low single digit handicapper I don't recommend a 13* 3 wood-if you ever plan on using it off the fairway.  You should have no problem hitting a 14.5* or 15* 3 wood 220-240 yards.

Personally I am not (never was) a big fan of the 3W ....... I have had quite a few over the years, tried several lofts till I recently got a 13.5 909 F2 and I can hit it with ease of the fairway ...... I must say I took some lessons and today I average about 210 meter (about 235 yds including roll) with it from the fairway, but I only use it from a decent lie. If your technique is sound, hitting it is no problem, don't expect a lot of difference between a 13* and a 15*

The 13* three wood is a tough club unless you are very accomplished and have a higher swingspeed.  For most of us mortals, the 14.5* would suit the bill as a little higher launch angle would get us fairly similar results and it would be easier to hit.  I tried the Adams offering in both in a launch monitor and found that my Cally 15* had more carry than both of them at 245.  The lower loft was at 240 but not as consistent, the higher loft was within 5 yards but more consistent.  My Cally won due to the comfort level and the shaft configuration.

    • Yes, they even out. Not all 8-footers are the same, but they even out.
    • Day 606, July 1, 2024 18 (well, 16) with @DrizZzY.
    • I need… 1, 8, 10, 11, 14, and 17. Today… On 1, my alarm went off mid backswing, but I was playing a blue SuperSoft anyway and hit it okay, but just moved my ball up to where Sculley's was a bit as we were pressuring a threesome that jumped out ahead of us. On 8, I hit a good 3W, a really good 9I, and lipped out the 12-footer. On 10… good drive, god-awful second. Chipped to four feet. On 11… pulled left onto a slope, chipped just past the hole to four feet. On 14, left the 50-foot putt three feet short. On 17, good 3W, good 9I, pulled the putt a few inches, so missed it a few inches left from 16 feet.
    • I found this video... Old Method 1. Open the clubface a ton 2. Open the stance a ton 3. Swing along the foot line New Method 1. Set up with the handle lower, and the ball further away form the body. 2. The clubface still opens up, but lowering the handle helps in not having to open the stance as much or for some keep the stance closed. Keeping the stance closed allows them to keep their weight forward much easier.  Now, I question that the PGA Tour players are hitting steeply down into the sand. I think they may have gotten this wrong in the video. You can load up the weight on the front foot, and still hit the ball shallow. The amount of sand taken out in some of the swings is not that much, and the divot doesn't look that deep.  Thoughts?
