Titleist 975F - 14.5* Still finds it's way into my bag as it's more faithful than a dog.

Did it originally have the Ultralite shaft? If I needed to hit a hook, that was the club/shaft combo to do it with. :)

Got it with a YS-6S. Most often falls to the right for me but not wickedly. :russian_roulette:

I know this won't be a popular club but I had a Ping i3 clone three wood with a True Temper Tx-90 shaft that was the longest three wood I have ever hit. Loved it and cried when I broke the shaft in the hosel and couldn't get the tip out. Tried to sand a graphite shaft, cheap one, down and reshaft it. Was successful but the feel was never the same and sold it in a garage sale before the birth of my first child. Bought a used Ping i3 to replace it, reshafted with the Tx-90, but couldn't fall in love with it. Till this day I still don't have a three wood I like.

975F 14.5 with X100.... doesn't get much better even today....
Also have a 15* V-Steel X100.... wouldn't mind grabbing a Steelhead either.

Also have 970 silverheads in 13* & 17*... cool clubs to have but reaaaally hard to hit.

KZG CH-1, with various steel shafts. A bomber.

Callaway Steelhead (original)

Titleist 904F

Ram Concept 15 deg

Cleveland Launcher Ti

All of them give up zero to what's out there today - some of them are actually better, since they used to design fairway woods to be versatile, with deeper faces & curved soles, instead of simply attempting to maximize distance.

I liked the original Titleist PT, even though it had already been around for a while at that time. Also had a Cobra "Greg Norman" signature series.

Back then it seemed that the fairway woods the produced the most penetrating trajectories without having an overly deep face, were the smaller heads from the past. Think forward and low COG....

Good call i still have mine in the closet. 13 degree non bore thru with an x100 that thing is stuffed with styrofoam and has the COR of a potato but is still looooooong!

Possibly the lowest spin fairway woods of all time. Laser beams in trajectory

Several from that era (or close) ... but I wasn't playing them then.
TEE Exotics (CB1 15, 18- currently using)
TEE CB2 15 -- currently using

Then there was the Cobra SS 3 Hyper Steel with HM 40 Tour shaft (about 65 g's)-- Which I did play
That was a really solid club and very long for me; carried it distances I sometimes struggle to do now with my driver.

I've still got the Ping G5 3wood in the bag, I've tried a few others, but keep going back to the G5, it's got a nice deep face for a 3 Wood, so I can use it okay off the tee.
