Best Fairway Woods of 2019 | Game Improvement | Average Swing Speed Test

[@keithrobertson7144]

Hi guys, I just wanted to say thanks for inspiring me to get my first fitting in 10 years. Made such a difference to try a range of different manufacturers and Shafts, hitting driver, fairway wood, hybrid and irons it soon became clear what suited me best and pretty much a different brand each time! Really love your videos, please keep it up

[@austinlauer1910]

Awesome Matty! You should do a course vlog trying to swing like that. Kind of an average swing speed course vlog and have Ian fit you for an entire set. Great stuff!

[@chrisfreitag2603]

Great test with average swing speeds. Little half swing, boom 240-250 yards down the middle and that's before Matt had his Big Mac. Makes it look easy. Good comments on ease to hit and launch.

[@mattparsons946]

Matt, your control is just insane. Nicely done.

[@tomangelo4168]

Controlling longer club shots at half speed is a great skill builder. I need that shorter backswing. Matty Ice always in control. Cheers boys!

[@bretthansen4773]

This is my favorite channel....just saying....don't change anything, but keep it coming.

[@MapleS2324]

Just got a m6 demo on black Friday for a steal of deal. cant wait to see if it will help with my inconsistencies in the long clubs

[@jimthompson6955]

Thanks guys. After watching your video and checking out the prices at Golf Town, I might look at the F9 for $250 instead of the Flash (or M6) for $400!

[@roncranfield7616]

Bar none, THE best content on KZbin! Period. Thank you Ian, Matt and crew for all you do!

[@timbilly7393]

Been using a Taylormade Jetspeed 3 fairway wood for 5 years. Great club

[@cmdguitar158]

I come here just to watch Matt’s swing.

[@JuanGarcia-hr1wf]

Great video Matt and Ian. My 3 Wood is the TS2 dialed in @ 14.25 degrees and is by far the easiest 3W I have hit on a consistent basis.

[@deuce3811]

Matt has been working on his stinger 3 wood off the tee. Awesome

[@davidlewisTN]

Great stuff. Would like to have seen Srixon in the test. No adjustability but really long.

[@uwrossl]

Sound off the TS fairways is so solid. Love my TS2 3 wood. Forgot Matty was doing the slower swing for these and when he hit the first one I was like "WTH happened to his swing" LOL...It's almost like he's mocking us mortals!

[@Jack-xy4fy]

Finally a golf channel with a Scottish host

[@LTPGA]

I really appreciate the way y'all test and jaw about it. Can't understand the haters. Seems odd that there are a dozen dislikes, on a data & opinion test of clubs, when you do an honest test & review. Keep up the excellent job. Still can't wait till OnCore gets you some more DTC balls to test. Would love to see a crap driver head on different shafts to illustrate the engine of the driver concept.

[@gs023]

Just bought the epic flash 5 wood delofted to 17* and it’s a winner for my setup, so I’m pleased to see it come out on top in this test. Nice work guys.

[@justinstephenson9360]

I did the same with the older Epic. Made my 3w redundant. Effectively you have created an old fashioned 4w - a much under rated club

[@nelsonjames1272]

The older model is basically the same other than a few cosmetic differences. A 14 degree with a half to one inch longer shaft that fits can get you only about 10-15 more yards of flight but with the proper trajectory can get you considerably more roll for some reason. Spin numbers I imagine.

[@parnopsiripornpak428]

Very informative. Fantastic video guys, thanks.

[@richardsdiaz1]

Another good video.... I’m currently gaming the F9 and love it. This coming from a guy who’s games Titleist FWY woods for a very long time. I am left handed, playing it with a RH sleeve so I can open the face and flatten the lie a a bit as suggested by Ian in one of the TXG live chats. Works great for me! Looking forward to the rest of the end of the year videos.

[@fortheboyz773]

My mind is blown on how much better matt looks hitting golf balls after 1.5 years. From carrying 3 woods 220? To carrying 260!?!? who the front door coached matty boy!? We all could use that help and transformation. And duh looks straighter!

[@brianmann7035]

Hope you’re doing hybrids soon as I’m in the market for a 3 and 5

[@nickmarr1]

Great stuff, gents. Thought the TaylorMade M6 might have been in there rather than the M5?

[@mangelarsson7774]

my thinking as well, but maybe they didnt have it??

[@timothywillett9371]

Great video and great series, I just am shocked M5 was picked over m6 for game improvement.

[@meese1k]

Same

[@coegj]

It's always good to know what Santa Me just might bring me for xmas, great video guys thanks. It looks to be a long winter here in Illinois, si I got nothing else to do but wait on more videos and watch my neighbor clear snow for me.

[@Raymond-sj7cn]

Always enjoy your video’s 👍🏽 played the TS3 fairway all year but tried (just for fun) a few weeks ago last year Srixon fairwaywood FZ65 ...a fairwaywood that was in sale...shocking good performance on trackman from the deck and great feel and sound . Came back next day to try it on another swingday and again better performance than my TS3. Bought it and it is in the bag the last two weeks. Cheapest fairway wood club I ever bought🤑 ....never thought about Srixon and that was my mistake. Very easy to elevate from the deck and good distance. It’s a pity that you cannot set it flatter because I like a flatter hybrid and fairwaywood. That’s what I like about the G410 hybrid and my TS3 fairwaywood (which has a seat on the bench at this moment but I wait till the honyemoonperiod with the Srixon is over before I sell it 😜)

[@whiskerrub]

I know what your all thinking nope wasn’t Bandit and I talking in Matty’s backswing. Brandon ... your not not suppose to talk to us while operating camera 3 Periscope feed. 👍 End of Year Testing loving the series and there’s more to come. 👍

[@shauncurley7203]

Great video as usual guys. What handicap are Brandon & Mikey? Would they be better testing the game improvement equipment if they have higher handicaps rather than Matty altering his natural swing?

[@clubchampionmedia]

Brandon swings extremely fast, and Mikey is above average in speed as well

[@shauncurley7203]

@@clubchampionmedia Thanks for getting back guys. It was just an idea as it depresses me to see how good Matty is on the videos!

[@barrymills8597]

Guys, would the fact Matt is trying to swing so slow (basically down to my speed)😡😡😡😂😂😂😂not effect his consistency with clubs. Great video by the way (as always)

[@stephendibari7704]

Matty mentioned the Flat setting on the G410+ threw him off. I’m 5’-5” so there’s no doubt ill be needing the flat setting come this spring when i get refitted for Ping G410+ driver/fwys/ hybrids. Was fitted for F9 driver, 3 & 4 W, and 3H & 4H early Feb 2019 with Accra fx 2.0 200 series shafts. (360 M4 driver, 200F M4 & 200H M4 shafts). I have nearly the same swing as Matty put on here, I’m about 98 mph with 3 wood so ill see how the Epic Flash compares to my current F9 gamer and G410+. Looking to get into all Ping G410+ driver (more MOI compared to F9), 3 and 5 woods and 3H & 4H . Hopefully the bend profile of my Accra 2.0 shafts will be the right fit for the heavier G410+ heads ?? My intention is too swap out the F9 heads into the G410+ heads (with Ping adaptors) using my existing Accra shafts

[@dpd2k105]

Just got a 16.5 degree ts2 on ebay for $100. Still in good condition and I’m enjoying the club so far

[@seancook2264]

Got fitted for G410, 5 wood, Tensai Orange. knocked down to 4 wood, 1* flat, sits beautifully behind the ball. Replacing a Titlelist 909 fairway...

[@MLittrell]

Forget the driving irons. Matt just needs to bunt fairway woods!!!

[@zacharymilos392]

I long for the day Cobra release a fairway wood that can go as flat as a Ping. Look at that ball speed...! Do you guys have the F9 Tour for Matty to hit next or is that a RH only model?

[@thomasmennis]

Why test the M5 instead of the M6. The M6 seems like it would fit this club category better than the M5

[@ericchung6423]

TXG probably does not carry any M6 because it has no adjustability of shaft. It has no adapter and is made primarily for retail version only

[@DizzyGoat44]

Since going out and playing isn’t an option for you either updating or following the swing speed program videos would be cool

[@MikesaBhoy]

These are great. Prefer them to the general review vids (also good) but most clubs that make it into the shop will perform well. Get much more out of these head to heads. Nice one.

[@petercooper6411]

Hi Ian and Matt, loving this series. As a TM M4 fairway swinger what was the rationale in using M5 rather than M6 in this category? Keep up the great work!

[@danmagruder358]

I had the Rogue Sub Zero a year ago, it was the hardest 3 wood off the ground. But the best off the tee? Went to the Cobra, a winner for me. 62 3.5 handicap Carry 210 yards

[@nickygraham2625]

Can I ask what loft these were set to? I’m trying out a used 15 degree Epic Flash and was struggling to get height. Have moved it to +2 which is better but it’s still not as easy to hit off the deck as I’d hoped...

[@brucefrank5556]

At 59 and losing swing speed, I loved my Epic Flash fairways this year. Now I know why! 🙂

[@tylerprice8963]

Is this an 859 aldila blue elite in a fairway shaft? I can’t find it anywhere.

[@rdickens1]

Great video! If you're dialing it back to hit it 225 in the fairway, please give us a swing thoughts video for speed and accuracy!!!

[@benlemoi3515]

I have the f9 fairway and it’s stupid easy to hit I’m not the greatest player and it gives a ton of confidence going into the shot knowing I’m going to have solid contact every time I use it.

[@BT62240]

i bought the epic heaven wood and dialed down the loft and am killing it to 225+

[@PbD187]

I love Matt is just bunting a 3 wood 250 haha.

[@boober7270]

Do u know laird. Who works with just rose???

[@shanef517]

No room for the Srixon in there? I think you guys reviewed that very highly

[@stephendibari7704]

Surprised G410 wasn’t the easiest to hit considering the amount of MOI. Would think the G410 has the highest MOI ?Confused 🤷‍♂️ 🤣

[@GregDaMurse]

Matt hitting it as far as me with a half swing 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@stevenstewart1308]

I feel the same only he hits it farther that I do.

[@stephendibari7704]

Me too !!

[@stephprime]

Hip Rotation is key my friend :) Just relax and keep it smooth

[@TheOgieone]

Interesting & valuable info but can't wait to see Matt rip the players 3 wood!

[@banditbaker1675]

So Matty hits a 3wood with a half swing further than I can hit a flat out driver........Man am I depressed😒

[@mikelytwyn3578]

Which would you recommended for off the deck (potentially 2nd cut) and forgiveness?

[@lavrentievv]

f9, but it's difficult to hit from the tee

[@lavrentievv]

Or ping

[@jordanliu6269]

why r u not hitting full swing? I'm just curious

[@michaeldicker4839]

Jordan, he has reduced his swing to make "average swing speed". As in the video title.

[@Richsgbox]

Why M5 and not M6?

[@DanielRodrigues-hn8cx]

Not much difference, seems like they were all very similar and its more a looks and feel decision.

[@user-fn3zh8nw4f]

and Mizuno ? I got it , had an M5 too but I still prefer the ST190

[@sorcerycircus4090]

As a guy who moves the 5w 275'ish I like to watch vids of Matt bringing the Heat' 🤘😁

[@craigedga4r]

F9 all the way ie 3-4 5-6 7-8 in my bag💪💪💪🙂🙂🙂

[@Jack-xy4fy]

Do these still hold up? Looking at bagging an F9 5 wood

[@stewartbarnes3644]

Could you leave the statistics on screen for longer? we do not need to see you talking, we can listen to what you are saying and assimilate the numbers at the same time. It takes us longer to read the stats than you guys who look at them every day. Many thanks, keep up the good work.

[@jadamane]

Stewart Barnes pause the screen mane 🙋🏾‍♂️

[@zacharyfieldhouse9039]

Woo woo go epic flash

[@steelers1500]

Matt looks like he's chipping his 3 wood 240 yards lol

[@boober7270]

Half inch shorter on m5

[@michealweathers4769]

$500 for a fairway??????

[@gskeff]

How much of a **** is Matty with his shitty little half swing hitting it over 230 yards off the deck!!! Not jealous at all!!! 😁😂😫

[@clubchampionmedia]

🤣🤣🤣

[@stevebones2535]

Matt shortened your back swing alot
