I wish they made them in lefty because I would have dropped the driver long ago.  I still play the TEE CB1 15* and  I've just never hit anything like it. I heard that the Adams are really good and I'm sure that there are others but I just love how the TEE fairways perform.

I have the 15* and a stiff 5w on order, just fell in love with the exotics line when I demoed them!

Bag:

DriverG25 or  XCG5 11.5* 3++ fairway wood

3w:  XCG6 15*

*5w: XCG6 18* (out if I bag my 3-iron)

Irons: Rocketbladez tour  3-pw(47*) (I sometimes bag the 3 iron but usually the 5w) 

Wedges:   SM-4  52*, 56*, 60* 

Putter:  Versa #7 (white on black)

They are really good sticks for sure....I wish I could get the 11.5* in lefty and I would just drop the driver out the bag but such is the life for the lefties!

I have to admit it is not always straight, but i string some very good shots together most of the time. I am wondering if this club would help me avoid that problem while also letting me hit the long par 5s in 2 which i can do with driver 3w or driver driver if i have a favorable lie....  I would basicly sub this club in for specific courses.

I wasn't trying to call you a liar.  (I'm skeptical, considering most pros don't constantly drive in excess of 300 yards, but I'll take your word for it)  I was being a smart-ass, definitely, and for that I apologize if I offended, however, my point still stands.  Here's a better definition of what I took your post as ... "humblebrag."  Which means: Subtly letting others now about how fantastic your life is while undercutting it with a bit of self-effacing humor or "woe is me" gloss.

If you re-read the bold form your original post, I think you'll see what I'm talking about.

So, again, no need to buy yourself a 2-wood ... just hit 3 wood or 5 wood or hybrid or 2-iron on any holes where your driver will go too far.  That is the benefit of being a long hitter ... that you can afford to hit a shorter and STRAIGHTER club more often.

Anyways, welcome to the site.

been looking at the XCG5 line -- at first for the 4w, but then the 13* 3w caught my eye, and now this 11.5* as a potential driver replacement.  like the OP, i cannot stand the 460cc driver heads and don't bag a driver because i can't get comfortable with any newer driver i have tried over the years.

if anyone has any insight on the 11.5* and 13* 3+ woods from TEE (differences if you've swung both, however subtle they may be), i would appreciate it as i look to narrow down that decision.  not sure i would hit it off the deck very often, but i might be tempted to give it a go on par 5s.

-- In the Bag --

Cobra S3 White Driver (10.5*)

Cobra AMP Cell-S 3-Hybrid (18*)

Cobra AMP Cell-S Irons (4i-GW)

SCOR 4161 Forged Wedge (55*)

Cleveland VP1 Putter

A person who "constantly" drives 300 + doesn't need to ask what he should hit if he wants to be shorter off the tee. How about ANY 3 or 5 wood or, as another said, your 2 iron.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

I have issues with my impact positions currently. Ive been looking for a club that can help me on into the wind holes. Is this a club that fires the ball low. I know I need to fix my swing instead of buying a "bandaid" for my game. But I simply dont have time to hit the range anymore.

I currently play a cleveland black 16 deg which just is not the right club for my swing. Ball goes ridic high the guy who sold it to me is obv a joker.

    • 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."
