I am a high handicap looking for a fairway wood to hit off of the tee. Looking for a 3 or 4 wood. I went to hit the woods and a driver but the monitor quit working after 5 swings with the driver. The swing speed was 94.2 to 94.8 MPH. I did hit a few woods and liked the looks of the callaway the best but I have no numbers to see what I will work the best for me. I was looking for something easy to hit and would like to know what you would suggest.

T4m,

i was doing the same thing saturday, looking for a new 3 wood... and stopped into a Golf Galaxy and tested out the Xhot, Rocketballz, and the nike covert....     I hit the X-hot the farthest, but i have a problem with the Fade lol....   So the guy who was helping me out suggested a adjustable head, which i was going to suggest anyways, and he brought me the Cobra Amp..

after using the Cobra Amp, i ended up buying it,,, along with a matching Driver..

And today after getting off work i headed right to the driving range to try out my two new toys :)

And was pleasantly surprised and how straight i was hitting the ball..   yes i did have both the 3wood and driver head adjusted to close....   But I was hitting the ball a lot straighter than i was with my old Xcg3, and old 3wood...

I too was a guy who basically was looking for a 3wood to hit off the tee's since i at using my driver.  But after today, i feel like i could use my new driver with no issue....  I even went from a stiff shaft in the Xcg3, to a Regular flex in the Amp..

I will say this wasnt just a fluke of me hitting 5 good balls, this was hitting a good full bucket of balls with the 3wood + driver....

It is what it is

If you are just considering these two clubs, I would suggest the X Hot vs. the RFE.  The Xhot is a larger head, 460cc vs 440cc (unless you get the RFE 13.5 loft which is 460cc) is more forgiving and easier to hit for those of us with a higher handicap.

Even good players have issues with the RFE. Higher caps should probably avoid it.

      Day 23: weird day, and only had a little bit of time. Just did mirror work again, working on where the elbow is in the downswing

      I flipped over to this tonight and thoroughly enjoyed it. Anyone else watch? I picked it up during the golf relay event, but seeing these pros out having fun in alternative events was refreshing and entertaining. I’m sure it will be on in reruns in the next week or so, so I won’t spoil the outcome. Im curious what others thought of it. I’m recording it’s later airing to see the beginning.

      Day 37 (17 Dec 25) - nine hole round with my good friend.  We got paired up with a couple of the men’s group regulars as part of their shootout.  Started off with a wonderful quad bogie and then a dbl on three to be six over thru three holes.  Game went 180° over the next five as I shot one under (including a chip in birdie on hole six and four up and down 1 putt pars) for a net finish of five over. What could have been a really tough nine became a solid finish due to staying in the moment and not checking out.  Great day in course management and keeping perspective .
