For the last few years, I have pulled my 3 metal out of the bag and gone strictly with a Cobra Baffler 2-H on the fairway.  Tried a Rocketbalz 3 metal at the end of the year and may back to a fairway wood.  Thoughts on Rocketbalz fairway vs. Ping G20 3 metal?  Anyone have experience with the senior shafts?  Thanks.

I have Cobra 3W and 7W and a Rocketbalz 5W. I have not hit the Ping G20 woods. I like both the Codra and the Rocketbalz although I can tell you I hit the Cobras more consistantly. My Cobras have senior shafts, the Rocketbalz has a regular shaft. I'm 62 and my swing speed is lower these days, I think the senior shafts help. The rocketbalz purchase was more an impulse buy one day, so I probably didn't get the correct shaft, I purchased it off the rack. I may be looking to sell it in the future given I hit my 7W almost as far as the Rocketbalz 5W.

Also, I would not believe the hype about 17 additional yards with the Rocketbalz fairway wood. That only applies to certain swing speeds according to Mark Crossfield on You Tube. If you haven't seen Mark Crossfield, I would go to You Tube and do a search for him. He gives instructions and also demos clubs. He did a comparison of the Rocketbalz and the Burner 3W, got the same distance with both clubs.

    • The dreaded 6 o'clock shadow. 🤣
    • 47+49 for a 96. Just lost it today. Two way miss off the tee. Could not hit a decent iron. Three putted like at least 8 holes. Not good when the short game is the best part of the day 😭😭
    • Phillyk is very close by. Ok, I understand how the watch and tags are meant to be used, but I was just curious how it actually works. I can't really think of any other way than what I mentioned above. No worries. If it works it works. I'll probably pick one up. My co-worker mentioned a free app called 18 Birdies which offers similar services. However I personally do not like keeping my phone in my pocket while golfing, nor do I want to be clicking around on the phone while out on the course. I toss my phone in my bag and leave it there until I am done golfing. Tapping a club head to a watch seems wat more convenient.  
    • Yes, but not always the case. IMHO, green speeds are a huge variable and can effect score variation from week to week or month to month significantly. Our own course that is running at about 8-9 depending on the week/day, can run up to 12 (no kidding) in peak months around certain event, and most like me score 3-4 shots higher on an average, missing a lot of 3-4 footers. There are any PCC adjustments that I am aware of. Have you every played their course? I am betting $20 you will find some answers if you haven't already.
