Best 3 wood


Kaexo

Recommended Posts

The best one is the old one in my bag.

 

I haven’t even hit any current fairway woods. But if I did, the Rogue sure looks good. And the Wilson D7 has a great shape. I’d give it a shot too.

Rogue are currently reduced in price and are bombers. I would also look at TEE.

Rogue was the longest and most forgiving, however I play the 17 M1. It is so adjustable in both loft and shot shape. I turn over my driver and have the 3HL set open to 15* and toe weight at fade so it only cuts for those holes where trouble is on the left.

Most everyone will tell you it’s the one currently in their bag haha. It’s going to be different for everyone, and depends on what you’re looking for specifically, but you’d be silly not to try them all. If resources and/or time are limited, I’m gonna suggest the Srixon F85. Their new line is phenomenal, and as usual, their fairway woods will fall under the radar. They are as good, if not better, than anything out.

2016 M2 Deep Face is an absolute legend.

 

Tour Edge CBX is also a great club.

 

2016 M2 was a great club, but the upright lie angle it came with caused a lot of left misses for better players.

 

The Tour Issue version (deep face) seemed to have a flatter lie angle and sit more open.

 

Another vote for the 2016 M2 DF.

 

Even in HL (16.8), it's an absolute monster. For being a fairly small footprint, it's not as demanding as one might think either.

M2 2016 no question. I know it's not new but plenty of new ones still out there. Look at the videos on youtube. Very long and straight. Just bought me a brand new one at Dallas golf for $89 and had it reshafted.

I really like Callaway 815 Alpha 14*. I have speeder 665 stiff, tipped 1/2" playing at 42.5" 30 gram weight in front set at 15 degrees. This is a great club for me. 225 carry with 3200-3300 spin. Most three woods I spin out of control and they go no where. Swing speed on trackman around 98mph.

What is everyones thoughts on the current best 3 wood with the new releases that have came out?

 

I have the Ping G400 SFT (adujusted -1*) so set at 15* with the draw bias somewhat neutralised a tad. I went with the SFT over the standard (which was a very close 2nd) becasue of the lower profile head and it was better from the deck.

 

Extremely forgiving fairway wood and very easy launch from the fairway - I need a 3w to do both.

Ever year it’s look for the 3 wood well 17 degree 4 wood now. Found it, Mizuno jpx900, straightest fairway ever with the 65 gram Fuji siix fw from Mizuno ez fairway wood. Play it at 17 degrees. Have the 5 and 7, not the longest but straight, rogue was longer but went everywhere but straight.

 

I want an accurate fairway wood. I found it.

Rogue Sub Zero is long and it doesn’t hook. Great feel

Consistently higher ball speeds for me. The 2016 m2 is the best 3 wood off the deck and still has the versatility from the tee. Buying a backup as we speak

It's better in almost every way. Feel, sound, flight. When I caved in my 2016, the replaced it with a 2017. I got rid of the 2017 shortly after.
