I'm on board with the 4 wood idea. I've had a Ping G10 4 wood for years (maybe 10 or so). It won't be getting replaced unless for a more modern version. I'm in my mid 50's now and building a new bag so to speak and I'm looking at driver, 4wood, 7wood, 4 hybrid, 5-9irons, pw, 54, 58, putter. The gapping works (for me) and it all suits my eye. 👍

Another very senior golfer (81 y/o) here who has switched to a 12* Cleveland with a ladies flex. I took out my 3 wd a few years ago and replaced it with a 5wd with a senior flex which I'm able to hit very well on tight par 4's and as a fw wood without giving up significant distance. I find the added loft gives me all the distance and accuracy that I need to keep my scores in the mid-low 80's with the occasional high 70's while playing the senior tees.

As an ageing golfer I'm stuck with reaching for every par 4 or 5 after the driver. For the 10 to 14 times a round I use it I love the 16° Ping G 3 wood set to 17.5° with a senior shaft. So comfortable, so reliable, not as long as I would like because it leaves lots of chip shots, but the Cleveland SmartSole wedges are another life saver. So why would I want to buy the TM product?

I'm still gaming my TM M5 3W from 3 years ago. Last Summer I adjusted the loft to 17 deg, it's weakest setting, and it's so easy to reliably hit off the tee and fairway. So I tend to agree with you, adding a couple of degrees loft makes the club more usable and a justifiable addition to the bag. I don't see anything with the Stealth to upgrade from the M5 though.

Where do your silver tees fit into this scheme? Unfortunately I'm still playing well enough for the WHS to insist I play from the yellow tees.. Whereas some of the guys I play with, even younger than me, get to play from the blue tees some 30 to 60 yards shorter than my yellow tee distances.

I do carry a 3 wood and use it 3 or 4 times during a typical round on my home course. Most of those times are off the tee on tight par 4's. I rarely ever hit it out of the fairway because I usually hit 5 wood because I get a higher ball flight. It is a redundant club that I could easily replace those 3 or 4 shots with my 5 wood but there's really no other club I need elsewhere in the bag. So for now it stays.

Andy, I was of the same mind as you and started last season with driver and 5wd. However, on account of a shaft defect, I had to play without driver for 13 weeks. During that time, I picked up a Mavrik Subzero 3wd and discovered not only was it as long as my driver, it was 20% more accurate off the tee (60% vs 40%). It was excellent into the wind and can be used from the fairway. Presently, I'm in the camp of "don't buy driver"!

You make a valid point . I rarely use my 3 wood unless I am just not hitting my driver well or if I have a very long second shot on a par 5. Which to be honest, does not happen too much since I started playing the senior tees. I am able to hit it fairly well off the fairway grass so there is that and I have room in my bag so I let it go along for the ride anyway. But if I needed to have a different club in my bag I would not hesitate to leave the 3 wood home.

I can hit a low stinger with it that gets a lot of roll or a high drawing bomb that sits down quick when it hits ground. I also carry 18 degree same club but set at 19.5 and 1” short of standard and they have a solid 20-25 yard gapping depending on what I’m wanting to do. They both are my two favorite clubs beside my SC putter, that I’ve had since 2012.

Nothing wrong at all with the filming mate. As always, it was flawless and inspiring for someone like me. Great review all around, if I’m honest. For a long time - I used driver, 4wd and the 3 & 4hyb before I hit the irons. You’re right, the 4wd is so versatile. It was my fairway finder from the tee and on Par 5’s for optimal lay ups. I was using the Callaway X Hot 2 (not the Costco model). It’s only downside was that it spun up too much, even in a light breeze. I suppose it comes down to the type of course you play and what demands that cause has on your course management. I’m back to having a 3 & 5wd and I use them a fair bit around Sale GC.

I don't have the swing speed to bother with a three wood off the deck so I don't carry one either. I am liking my Stealth 5 wood though and have a Stealth 7 wood on the way. I enjoy you testing clubs on the course and commenting as you play. Keep up the great content!

I enjoyed the format you used today, Andy. It's always nice to mix it up a bit. I still use my 3 wood, usually on par fives and long par threes. It's not my favorite club in the bag, with an occasional top; but I do find it useful.

I have a 3wood, a Callaway B11, which I like very much, but your right depending on the course I only use it a couple of times per round when it's in the bag

I carry a ping G410 3 wood and use it a lot. It is my favourite club! I got fitted for it whilst a mate was being fitted for irons and loved it.

The G410 is a great fairway wood 👍

Absolutely love my ping g410 3w @ 14.5, should probably drop my driver in favor of it, but won’t just yet. Really enjoy the melding of the van build with the golf content. It’s like my two KZbin interests coming together. Great job both of you. Would totally be on board with golf and va n meal prep videos.

I use my 15 degree 3 wood plenty. I play a very tight home course and the 3 wood is my go to tee club on several holes. I also hit it from the fairway on three par fives.

Completely agree on 3 wood comments. Yes, it’s in my bag, gets used once maybe twice per round off the tee.

Very jealous of the Camper / day van.. I tipped my 3 wood 15 degree by 1 inch for better control. I have made 270 yards shots of the fairway which when straight has been my best shot of the day, making the green in 2 shots on PAR 5's , But I have also a 5 wood 21 degree and found a new love for the 5W straight and 220 yards even the odd 245 yards recorded using Golf Pad Tagged clubs. So its a real 245 yards, not a freak shot on the practice range. 5W just launches with less effort.

I'm 59 have five low back surgeries. I have lost a lot of swing speed. Most will read this and think I'm crazy but it works very well for me. Generally do not hit driver, most time I don't even carry one. I hit my 13* three wood off tee on par fours and par fives. I can also hit it very well off fairway. I also carry a 16.5* three wood. More fairway but can use on tee for long par three. The higher loft is good out of rough. Going into greens. I don't carry five wood. I have 7,9,11 woods. I go between my 11 wood and my 28* hybrid. Irons are 8,9,pw,gw,sw.

I use my three wood on every par five. I’m currently looking to purchase a larger cc headed thee wood to replace my driver. I love my current three wood so I may end up with two tree woods in my bag. I am hearing that taylormade is coming out with a mini driver or 2 wood.

I don’t hit miles and so I do carry a 3-wood. Hit it probably 3-4 times a round, off the tee on longish par 3s, or making up distance when I have my all-too-often wayward drives or on a 2nd shot (or sometimes 3rd shot) on par 5. I game a G425 max, 14.5 deg, it’s high launch and easy to hit, no complaints. I probably continue to carry one especially when my driver is misbehaving. I do find my 5 wood distance is not a millions miles away from my 3 wood though.

Hi Andy great video.... I am trying to decide between a Stealth 3HL or the Titleist TSR2... 4 wood 16.5 degrees also.......your thoughts ? i maybe use a 3 wood 2-4 times a round and i would use a 5 wood maybe 4-7 times.....so i will try the 4 wood 16.5 degree and a 7 wood.....QUESTION IS do I go with stealth or the new Stealth 2..... cheers from Canada

Great job Andy and Hannah. I use a SIM MaxD 3 wood which is 16°. Only on short par 4's though. Maybe 4 times a round
@douglaslunsford70522 жыл бұрын
Have a Stix 3 wood and use it 2-4 times per round at least. Love it. If there's a right fairway, I'll hit the 3 wood over the driver.

Enjoyed the review and the meal. Ironically, I just added a 3 wood to my bag because my new hybrids were hitting as far as my 4 wood. I bought a Sim2 3 wood and absolutely love it.

I have almost sold my 3-wood. The 2H is a game-changer in my opinion at the top of the bag. The 16 degree Cobra as an absolute monster.
