hi, yeah i recently putting a 5 wood in the bag. been struggling recently wth my driver, and if swinging badly then I've got no right trying to hit my 3 wood. recently got a cheapie 5 wood, last years Benross vx proto, with aldila dvs stiff shaft. I tend to hit te ball too low, so the 19 degree of loft really helps. measured it wiht sky caddie last week with skycaddie and going 235-245 and straight. if driver woring then it goes about 275-285 ( tour edge exotics xcg-3 ). the matching3wood is a great club, but for confidence the 5 wood is a belter. would much rather than 240 up the middle, than 250 with the 3 wood in the trees
