I recently ordered the RBZ Speed Fairway 3-Wood. This is the black one with the speed slot on the bottom. I only got to hit a few balls with it on the range before taking it out on the course. So far, I really like this club. It seems very hot and is really long off the fairway. I haven't tried it from the rough yet. My first impression when I handled it is that it felt a little heavy. But, so far it seems to do exactly what I wanted in a 3-wood. Anybody else hit this one? Just thought I'd report here in case others are interested.

Custom fit RBZ irons. Taylormade RBZ driver. Some crappy old high-bounce Macgregor wedge and an even older Mizuno 5 wood. Haven't settled on a ball yet - still looking. Decades of football, weightlifting and boxing came together to create the world's worst golfer. I'm slowly correcting that now.

I checked out the Dick's ad online for this.

How heavy a shaft does it have? This is a rework of the original RBZ, which had a 45 gr. shaft that was just too light for a lot of golfers to control.

The shaft says "RBZ Tour S". I really am enjoying this club. I wanted a 3-wood that is fairly "driver-like" in appearance and performance. The black (vs white) finish is very nice, too.

    • Day 4 (24 Jun 26) - Played the mid-week shootout - iffy day on putts as I had 35 and of late been in the upper 20's.   Greens recently verti-cut and they are a bit bump and long haired - no excuses as I need to learn to trust making the proper adjustments.   Overall a decent day with some solid long game shots.

    • Thank you.  I'll cross it off the list since it isn't going to achieve what I want. 
    • While it does turn out that both Tiger and Phil are less squeaky clean than I previously believed, I don't think golf quite has the worst in professional sports.  Or maybe they're better at image management.   Obviously I'm not fond of Phil's issue we're discussing in this thread (or his involvement with LIV) or Tiger's choices of how to drive.  I used to really like Dustin Johnson and, even before the LIV situation, we started to hear rumors that he bought more snow than Seward, although I don't think those stories were ever substantiated.  Meanwhile, I did think of Anthony Kim as the "good, bad boy" of the tour for a while fifteen years ago because of his party persona -- and if it turns out the worst he did was show up hung over to play (barring what one thinks of LIV), that's pretty good.  And I'm still happy he found a way to get his life clean. If we contrast that with some other sports I enjoy, I'm sure we could find a nice long list of NFL players that, at one point in my life, I was quite fond of, we get far worse disappointments (to put it mildly).
    • Answering that properly would land me in hot water, so I'm not going to. I don't think that many people would do that. I think that in certain circumstances many people would be willing to overlook someone doing that. But I was really referring to what I assumed was Tiger's transgressions (cheating on his wife) not Phil's.
