What’s your 3 wood? - Titleist TSi2

What shaft is in it? - Mitsubishi Tensei Blue Stiff

What’s its main use (tee, off the deck…)? - Off the deck. Occasionally off a tee if the driver is to much club for a particular hole.

PING g425 - 5 wood set to 16.5* - 65x shaft. 

 

All that matters to me is can I hit it as high as possible from the deck and carry it avg 255. If I have to carry it further than that......I'm probably laying up anyway. If I'm laying up off the tee I'm probably hitting DI 90% of the time. Typically when I hit fairway on the tee it's because I'm trying to shape the ball a lot right to left. To be honest though I have spent a lot of time tinkering with fairways - and yet....I can go a solid month without needing to hit one.

I am experimenting with a 5 wood, rather than a 3 wood.  5 woods are hot these days, and easier to elevate of the fairway.  I am finding it more versatile, but need more time with it.

3W - Cobra Radspeed Big Tour

S - Fujikura Motore X F1 Stiff

Off the deck.

 

Purchased recently as I noticed I wasn't getting the distance I was after with the G425 5 wood, so I've lofted the 5W down to 19 degrees and sold my 3 hybrid as it's now redundant.

Ping G425 Max 14.5*

Hzrdus Smoke Yellow 70

Both

 

What I love about the ping is it is so easy to hit off the deck it’s silly.  Not my favorite sounding fairway, but a little hot melt and it will be just fine.  For being the max, it has a really nice shape.  Plus I love the matte finish.  Plenty of ball speed!

1. Various - Cobra, Mizuno, TEE, Titleist, etc.

2. Various - Aldila, Project-X, Matrix, Oban, etc.

3. Deck only (even from teeing area). That's the way FWs are supposed to be played!
