if you want game improvement iron with thin top line etc try Taylormade R7, Cobra FP, Wilson Di7-go to a shop and custom fitted for a real set!! you'll enjoy hitting them more

He was talking about fairway woods, he never even mentioned the word irons, so I'm just wondering how you got to the fact that he was talking about them?

Here's what I play:

Titleist 907 D2 10.5* UST ProForce V2 76-S | Titleist 906F4 18.5* Aldila VS Proto "By You" 80-S | Titleist 585H 21* Aldila VS Proto "By You" 80-S | Titleist ZB 4-PW TTDG S300 | Bob Vokey Spin Milled Oil Can 54.10 | Bob Vokey Spin Milled Oil Can 60.08 | Scotty Cameron Red X5 33" |

Help! Looking for game improvement irons with thin top line and less offset" Perhaps you should mind your own business 907golfer12
What's in my X cart bag

X460 10° off the tee, usually followed by either Big Bertha 3 wood or BlueMax 7 wood-stiff graphite
Then one of theseDi7 uniflex steel 5-SW and finally the NXT tour straight in the hole using Rossa Daytona

I'm sorry I don't read someones signature every post, calm down buddy it's not that big of a deal, most people respond to the post and not the signature, espically when the post is about fairway woods and not irons.

I'm still a golfing newbie, and even more so with hybrids. I'm currently playing a Callaway X 18 deg and X 24 deg. I'm not consistent, yet, with either club.

If I make solid contact (sweet spot, 3/4 swing, 80% tempo) then I'll hit the 24 deg 185 carry, 195-200 net and either straight or 10-20 yds right.

Same swing with the 18 deg is more like 205 carry, 225 net. I'm more inconsistent with this club and a slice isn't out of the question.

I also have a 19 deg TM Burner Rescue which I like the feel of but I balloon these so I switched to the X which feels more solid, better flight and really hop off the club face.

Odyssey - Metal X #7, 35in

Sorry, looks like I posted this on the wrong thread! I do not currently use any fairway woods -- I slice them like a baby driver!

I've posted about it elsewhere, but I love my Mizuno F-60. I don't always carry it, but it is a solid club. Looks great, sets up well, reasonably forgiving, etc. I also sorta like the stock Exsar shaft.

Hi Guys,

Could someone give advise on the cleveland launcher steel 3 fairwaywood? Is it ok for a high handicapper like me? Also your thoughts on cleveland hibore 3 fairwaywood?

i have confidence in my driver and long irons . what ever wood may be in my bag are for display purposes .
it would be to any golfers advantage to use what ever wood would fit their game . there are no specific models or brand as of now which we can say hold the advantage . all boils down to what ever keeps your game on the level is what counts most .

Hi Guys,

Kabayan , try multiple woods from different manufacturers on the driving range . opinion on what may fit you does not hold as it is only you who can decide what club will best give your game a boost . remember this is a game that clubs come at your specs and what ever may be others gold may not be to your game .

I use an old (approx 3 years) Cobra SZ 3 wood. Often use it of the tee when the driver act up. Is going to replace it with either a Cobra Speed or the Big Bertha next season.

Need info...

I have been swinging a Callaway Steelhead 3W for ages and thinking of buying a TaylorMade V-Steel 3W that is on clearance.

Could users of both club please provide a comparison of the clubs for me? Trajectory, ease off the deck, off the tee, shot dispersion, etc?

Orlimar Tri-Metal, originals
They hit straight and have a great ball trajectory. And i love the "thin" face!

I use System Q. I'm just starting out again after 15 years and that's what brand my uncle made for me. Once I consistently shoot in the mid 80's, I'll get a new set from a major manufacturer.

After several tests on various fairways as Kabayan Albatroz advised and found the Ping G10 15.5* work best for me. You're right Kabayan what was gold for others wasn't gold for me. Thanks!

    • Day 12: stole about 10 minutes in the garage, doing my drill with foam balls. 
    • Day 116 12-6 Still working on getting to lead side. Tonight I also tried some skill work with clubface awareness.  Hit foam balls. 
    • To flog this subject even further, if that's even possible, this article from Golf Monthly just appeared today in one of my news feeds. Written by a golf writer in the UK who I never heard of, he's basically saying that there should be only 3-5 rounds from the most recent 20 that should count towards the average and only competitive rounds should count. He claims the erratic scorers would have less of an advantage than they do now. He makes a lot of references to "club golfers" in the UK being the ones who are mostly dissatisfied. https://share.google/qmZZBEoJvOxHxJGil  In my experience with my league where we have golfers with indexes ranging from 5 to 40, looking at the weekly results from the past two years, I can detect no pattern that would substantiate the claim that the current system gives an unfair advantage to either erratic golfers (aren't we all?) or higher handicappers. Apparently though, at least in the UK, this seems to be "a thing."
