I try everything I can get my hands on when it comes out because I'm an equipment geek, but nothing so far is surpassing my 2007 Burner 18 degree 5 wood. That thing was a generational club. At best I can find something that matches it, so why buy anything? There's a reason they still go for $70-80 used after 12 years.

I still have two 3 woods in the same model. One has a Bimatrix shaft and the other a UST Proforce V2. As far as the 5 wood it had an after market Mitsubishi Javelin that was SST Pured. You can hit shots all over the face on those things and they still go out there like they were hit perfect.

Thanks everyone for the responses. I'm really liking my F8+ 3 wood so I have an F6 Baffler on the way. We'll see if it can kick the Anser 17* hybrid out of the bag.

Changed from F8+ 5wd last year to this years TM M5 5wd , great change lower flight more penetrating flight for me and straighter.

Carry both 5w at tuned down to 17* and a 2H tuned up to 18.5*

both fill diff gaps for me - 5wd off the tee for position 240-250, 2H hits the 215-225 spot, then 4iron hits the 185-195 spot and i dont find need anything else

When I rotate my 5W in for my driving iron, I prefer my TM SLDR.

 

I have a Cobra F8+ 5W, but I don’t hit it as well.

> Saw some older threads on this but looking for some newer suggestions/thoughts. Looking to swap the 17* hybrid for a 5 wood. Whats everyones favorite head/shaft pairing they're playing or have played? Obviously this is different for everyone based on fit but I'm just looking for general experience with them. Thanks!

 

I have been playing a Titleist 915 7 wood played at +2 degrees strong, which essentially makes it a weak 5 wood. Have been gaming it since early 2016, and the club is dang near hard to hit a miss with. I have tried hybrids and driving irons, and nothing has been able to be more reliable than the strong 7 915, both off the tee and from fairway/rough on par 5s and long par 4s.

I'm the opposite. I tried the G400 3 and 5 woods and didn't like them. I'm still using the G30's because I like the deep face.
