I need a new 3 wood! Looking for max carry....
FairwayFred ·


Long story short I need a new 3 wood. Something that I can hit off the deck w max carry. The course I play most has long par 5s and I need something to get me as far down the fairway as possible on my second shot. I am not a high ball hitter but I can spin it alot sometimes. I also tend to miss left so nothing that hooks. Looking for suggestions......

...produce the fastest ball speeds. The sleeve of the M3/LTD would allow you to tweak launch conditions.

Several studies have shown that most players (less Tour Professionals and High-Swing-Speed players) actually carry the ball further with more loft.
I'm a 3 hcap here in England, and actually gained carry from the deck with the M2 3HL, Tour AD-DI shaft.

These clubs were in my bag several times but they worked out to be too long in my gapping scheme...so much so, when I was in-between drivers, I actually only bagged one of the above instead of a driver for several weeks of playing.

Have to agree here! If you want distance, it's Rogue.

The TS2 13.5 is pretty solid too. Easy to launch off the deck and is plenty forgiving as well.

Sounds very similar to me. I spin a ton and do not want to miss left. I was trying everything this year to replace my M2 2016. I just haven't been getting along as of late.
Got a few different options, g400 (stretch and 14.5), rogue, F7, and a few others. Bought a Tour Edge CBX on a whim trying to get something long from the tee. I got a 13.5 and I was blown away. No lefts, spin stays down, and I actually launch it easier than the M2 in a 16.5. It takes off of the face like a rocket and is almost as long as my driver. I liked it so much I bought another head for shaft testing. Really great shape too.
Never really got into the TEE stuff, just not really much around me to test. This one got my attention and it is really a solid club. I will be testing a few shafts then unloading the second head. I would say take a look at least. It was definitely longer than anything else for me. And know that it's really easy to launch, so don't let the 13.5* scare you

Reg M4 or tour M4 head? I’ve been looking at the M4 tour 15* and pairing it with the evenflow black 75 6.5
