Large but shallow 3 wood foot print thats relatively flat?

Looking for as the title suggests. Is M6 gonna be one of the better options? I like TSR2+ but it’s a little deeper faced than I like. Is G400 stretch a shallow faced 3 wood? Any input would be appreciated. Also I’m not terrible at hitting 3 wood but I find that shallower faced woods improve my quality of life and I don’t have to strike it as clean

I have G400 stretch and 17.5 five wood. Yes the stretch is shallow. I get in great with deep faced 3 wood off tee but prefer shallow face for actual fairway use. 
 

great club and no regrets

Mavrik Max for sure. Also sounds and feels awesome.

Also check out the other/later Callaway "Max" or "X" versions.

I haven't hit the G400 stretch,  but being 13* loft I would think you would need to be better than "not terrible" and you will need to strike it pretty clean.

So "not terrible " is underselling your skills a bit.

Yes I am underselling a bit. Just looking for something easier to hit, BRNR mini has been great and is fun to hit off the deck but I would like to stress less about having to always catch every piece of the ball with my 3 wood/ mini driver slot

If you can find the Ping Rapture strong 3 wood from 2014 in good shape it was a beast & was fairly shallow face.

Don't laugh🙃, but Hireko has something worth looking at, the Power Play Juggernaut Max, as it fits the description👇

Years ago they came out with something similar, Power Play Warp Speed Brassie, that looks different but essentially has the same/similar specs.

Cleveland Halo Launcher XL 3 wood. I didn’t like the Cypher shaft and replaced it, but now it’s as solid as anything in my bag.

You'll like the Ping G400 series.  I love them for exactly what you are looking for!
