I must say 5 wood is one of my favorite clubs to hit if I have a nice lie on the fairway or rough for those longer shots. So the 3 driver 460cc head system wouldn't work for me very well. But all the power too you, everyone has their own way of playing!

So why has virtually everyone on this site gone from playing 250 cc drivers to the standard 460? forgiveness and high MOI. So why not continue that advantage onto other clubs?

I would not use a 460cc 5-wood since I'd have to tee the ball up in order to use the club. Hitting driver from the deck is not my cup of tea. 3 wood though? Maybe. I use it primarily off the tee, but it is nice to hit it off the deck too. I don't have problems with my 3-wood today, so I don't know how much it would help with a larger clubhead. I'm more likely to miss the fairway with the driver than the 3-wood.

Hi zeph, sorry I didn't make myself clear. The 3 drivers are tee clubs not fairway woods though the 20 degree driver gets the ball into the air of the fairway I tend not to use it as i've got the specifically designed faiway clubs 4 wood 23 hybrid and 26 hybrid in the bag

To the OP ... check out a Wilson Dominator if you want to see an oversize 3 wood ... never seen anything like that.

      Day 36: back to some mirror work tonight. Need a bit more forearm roll in my feels to help with the shallowing.

      _sigh_ so close to red text.  Went away for three days, but didn't do a practice morning-of-departure (Friday) nor evening-of-return (Sunday), so I had three misses, back to day one. Day 1, May 4 2026.  At home today, spent nearly an hour in my practice room, hitting about three dozen practice balls, primarily with my 6-iron.

      Width at P4 Has Downstream Effects on P6 and P7

      I would think of it in terms of time. The time it takes to get the arm angle into a good position to deliver the club with proper shaft lean. Another component is rotation, but that is also a matter of timing. It relates to how the body stalls to give the golfer time to hit the ball. If you have to get 80+ degrees out of that right elbow in one third of a second versus 50 degrees in the same time then you have to steal time from somewhere. It is usually body rotation. That does not help with shaft lean.  I agree in that amateurs tend to make the swing more complicated than pro golfers.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      I haven't been able to practice like I wanted and won't for the next week.  1. The weather sucks in Ohio this year. I have been mostly inside hitting foam balls. Just kind of my basic stuff.  2. I woke up last Saturday with a left side rib muscle on fire. If I turned or leaned a certain way it would spasm that almost buckled my knees. I have been taking a break to let that settle. I don't want to get a long term injury. I think I pinched a nerve or just aggravated a muscles.   3. I am going on a mini-vacation to Florida (screw you Ohio weather) with a friend, and rolling that into a work conference I have next week. I will be with out my clubs for a week.  I will be back next in two Fridays to hit the ground running with some warmer temps and better weather in Ohio, hopefully. I would really like to get more out on the course and the range.
