What is the best fairway wood from past 5 years?

[nikegolfer93]

In your opinion, what is the best fairway wood from the past 5 years? 

Would the Ts2 be in consideration? 

 

[eric61]

I’m guessing lots of folks will say the OG SIM TI.

Interesting Topic @greenfieldgolfer. I'm still with my 915F (and Cobra F6 Baffler with the rails ... and sometimes the TM Retro Raylor!)

... so can't really opine on the newer clubs (yet). 

 

See if these Links= helpful for starters. 

Seems like Taylormade = led the 2020 member polls, by a clear margin?

(Not sure if a similarly-clear Bar Chart exists for 2021/2022

... the 2021 Members' Poll and  2022 Members' Poll on the Forum doesn't allow me to see the results?)

I'm still playing my Epic Flash 3W and don't see that changing. Great club.

Taylormade Sim Ti and I love it so much I eventually got the matching 5 wood. Says a lot

Oh SIM Ti was great - especially in the rocket head, it just went forever and wasn’t all that hard to hit either

[DoughBack18]

Never got to try the og Sim, but I have a Sim2 5 wood and absolutely love it. The face is plenty hot, tons of weight low in the head so its launches high if you need it to, and the slightly smaller head is a little more versatile to me than some of the more oversized styles. And with all that it still seems to maintain a decent amount of forgiveness. It’ll stay in my bag for a while!

[Qegurezi]

TSI2 is in the convo. 

[realmfg]

I agree on the Mavrik.

Just got back from a week in California, took backup clubs, Radspeed are fantastic, but still hit my TSi3 3/5 longer and more consistently

This ⤴️

 

I own a 18* 5w, it may be my favorite 5w I’ve ever owned……. prior was the Titleist  904f 5w 

 

The Cobra speedzone tour are great too!

Yeah I have the EXS pro 3(4w) 16.5 and a Cbx118 18 5 wood. They're rockets.

Surprised to see so much love for Mavrik. I had a Mavrik SZ 16.5* and hated it. Maybe it was the shaft as I never swapped out the Fujikura XLR8 it came with. 
 

Also hated the SIM TI which seems to get a lot of love here.

I remember people loving the original Rogue fwy woods. 

 

But the big two at opposite ends of the spectrum would have to be OG SIM TI and TSi2 I would think.

[Dr.Potat]

My vote is for the OG SIM Ti as well. It set the path for my personal favourite and gamer Stealth Plus.

This would be it for me too. I've sold and re-bought a mavrik 4 Wood 3 times. It's not going anywhere this time. 

[zeebot]

Mavrik fans…. Regular or sub zero?

[aquapig]

Here you..just to save you the trouble of reading throught pages of this:

 

TM Sim

Mavrick

Epic

Ping G400

Ping G410

Ping G 425

TEE

TSI2

Cobra w rail and without

STZ

 

Asking the "best" of anything made in the last half decade and you'll get all the usual suspects mentioned. 

 

Better off asking which fairway woods you thought we're terrible the last 5 year...ironically enough, you might get the same list. 😁

Regular or max. Not a fan of the SZ.

Might have to give the regular Mavrik a try then because I also was not a fan of the SZ. 

[golfinbrad]

TEE C722 for me.
