Fairway wood 3 or 5?

[King Cobra II]

based off of what you said you were looking for i would say go with 5 wood. i carry a 3 and a 5 (13.5 and 18.5), or occasionaly trade out the 5 w for a 2H. the 5 wood is easier to shape consistently, and also easier to hit out of the fairway and rough. it would also fit the distance you were looking for a bit better i think.

And I would prefer not ordering from the US and go through customs and all that. So all I got to choose from is essentially a 5 wood or a 3 wood although the 4 wood sounds like a good option.

Question ... do you think a 2h (17*) is tougher to hit than say a 3i (cavity backed) ?      I havent yet developed a preference between the 2 clubs (for me the 2h isn't that much longer) ... thx
