Right now i have a callway x 2 hybrid in my bag but lately ive been feeling the urge to buy a 5 wood. Before i got new clubs i had a 5 wood but since i went with a 2 hybrid i never saw the need to replace, but i just dont like the feel of the hybrid better than the wood.
The decision on which kind of 5 wood to buy is what i need help with. i have a callaway x 3 wood that i like alot and i also have a the taylormade burner drvier that i really like. so right now im trying to decide on either the x 5 wood or a burner 5 wood. anyone have either or know which one is longer/easier to work?

Driver: Taylor Made Burner 9.5*
Woods: Callaway X 3 Wood 15*
Hybrids: Callaway X 2 Hybrid 18*
Irons: Callaway X Forged (3-9)
Wedges: Callaway X Tour 54*Wedges: Callaway Forged+ (52*, 56*)Putter: Heavy PutterBall: Callaway HX Tour

If you haven't hit the Titleist Pt906F2, try it. I swung it at my local Club, and immediately loved the feel of it. Its on my list of clubs to buy... Its got a nice heavy head and the default shaft is a Alida Nv or Nvs! Thats a hundred dollar shaft! Just give it a couple of swings, see if you like it.

In the bag:

Driver: F-Speed 12*
3 Wood: r7 draw
5 Wood: F-SpeedHybrid: a3 boxerIrons: Ignite 4-PWWedges: 53 Phil Rogers, vokey 56, 588 60Putter: Victoria or Puku belly

Sorry, don't know anything about those 2. I picked up a Taylor made V-Steel 5 wood & it's a great club. Might want to give them a look?

I bought a V-Steel 5 wood and love it, also.

      Yeah, watched Geoff Ogilvy's bit on Fried Egg about his conversation with some bogey golfer finding #2 most fun to play and the irony in it being so.  Makes sense.

      So, I think the idea behind it is that the ball is not perfectly smooth (obviously). So, on shorter putts, it is better to hit that point on the ball because it gets the ball into a better roll. You are not compressing the ball with a short putt, so it would act more similar to if you were hitting let's say a 100 sided dice. On longer putts, you might be compression the ball so more of the ball impacts the club face and then that single point doesn't matter.  It might be something he made up, could be a confidence thing, could be a legit thing. Maybe it matters more with how good the greens they putt on.  Also, we are talking about a single point here, and the putter face angle, path, ect.. will change a bit on each putt. So, it isn't like you are hitting that spot exactly in the same way.  Not sure it is worth the effort with so many variables in play.

      Looking at the aerial, there is very few holes were short is bad. You can always putt from off the green, so it makes the short game easier. I can see where the big number is out more often. It's not really a course where you can easily go low at either. The sand down there is super easy to play out of.

      Yeah, even Jamie doesn't really push (forward) with the right leg here, so I bumped on his use of that phrase/term early as well. They get away from it, though, and when they show the movements it's more obvious that's not what he's talking about. I sometimes wish there was a better term because, as you note, it often leads to people trying to actually "push" with their right leg.
