Hi,

I have recently learnt how to hit my woods properly (off of the fairway and tee) and I was just wondering what would be the best fairway woods to buy that are under £60. I would want them with shallow faces so that they would be easy to hit off of the fairway. I saw a Benross v6 5 wood for £40 but I could not seem to find any reviews so I held off buying them. Please also suggest some that are a few years old so that I could have a look on ebay.

N.b £1 = $2 roughly.

MacGregor MacTec NVG woods can be had at rediculously low prices on Ebay now. As can the Adams Insight BUL's. Can't go wrong with either.

cheers guys, I will take a look.

I did look at rockbottom but they are only i the us and they said that buying a club from the states can cosst £50 ($100) to ship so that racks up the prices rediculously.

    • Day 27 - 2026-01-16 Played 18 with some of the usual "too many voices" going on when I'm working on swing stuff. Fun to get out in great bay area winter weather.
    • I know one recent college grad who's trying the same thing.  This guy was a Division III All-American, went on to play one year at Division I LSU, and is not working hard.  He won the Gulf States Open, a pro event, and made it to the second stage of the Korn Ferry Tour School late in the fall.  And didn't make the cut to get to the final stage.  I won't talk about swing or play stuff, but I believe there are a couple of things that are essential.  Obviously, talent, and drive, or work ethic.   I can't tell you how to do it, but you HAVE to get through it.  Golf is going to be your life, and it takes lots of work. Two more things that are really critical.  You'll need the facility to be able to practice.  My young friend stayed in Baton Rouge, as a past player on the team he can still use the LSU practice facilities.  And money.  Its unlikely you'll be able to work a full-time job and practice the way you will need to.  You'll probably need backing, from a parent, from a consortium of friends or club members., something to support you. Good luck, its not an easy path, but anything is possible.  Another young man from our area, Mike Brennan, just won for the first time on the "big" PGA Tour.    
    • No one in the world is as smart as Phil thinks he is.
    • Get more comfortable with being uncomfortable. If you don’t like practicing then give up now. You don’t have the passion to become a pro. Unless that mentality changes you won’t do well under stressful situations.    Call the PGA Tour and ask. They probably have resources available.
