I have the same three wood, and have had the same problem, I hit the 5w well of the deck, but the 3w gives me a lot of problems from there. Somebody recommended the Titleist 906f4, and I hit that at golfsmith yesterday. Obviously I couldn't tell how well the ball flight was as I was indoors, but it seemed very easy to get up, and according to the launch monitor I was hitting it pretty well. Going to check with the pro at my course and see if I can take one out for a spin and see if I get good results when the ball isn't flying into a net after 15ft. I also hit the ping g10 and liked it. Not sure about any of the older models.

in purchasing a 3 wood, don't overlook the joys of persimmon

rediscovering the wondrous thwack of actual wood is beatifying to the soul

    • Day 39: did top golf for an hour with the family. It was fun but also not really like real golf at all. Also did some mirror work - working on the backswing stuff mostly. 
    • Day 4, 1/2/26.  Played 18 today;  didn't get a chance to warm up (had I known the range was closed, I'd have hit balls at home first).  Played okay, 92 with three balls in the water.  It was raining for more than half the round and I didn't quite appreciate before today just how much I benefit from roll on both drives and approach shots.  I did not adapt well to this change until about hole 15, which is something I have to figure out.  
    • Day 143 1-2 Arch wrist in downswing. Having a SLIGHT cup in the lead wrist at the top now. Only paused swings with some rehearsals before swinging at ball.  Used foam ball. 
    • Day 459 - 2026-01-02 Had two guys on GEARS Hybrid, so I hopped on afterward (I'm going to do this a lot more often now). So… I've signed myself up for another month of backswing work in two ways: A little more extension of the trail elbow (got into the upper 90s) Less pelvis turn (low 50s).
    • Day 31 (2 Jan 26) - Usual Friday men’s group shootout - good day of shot making  as most shots were right on line to the target point.  Putter and green reads were solid with some great par saves and a really tricky birdie.
