Aggressive VFT Technology precisely varies the internal thickness of the face in each club to increase the size of the sweet spot and maximize ball speeds across the face.
The difference is usually at least 1 stroke, and sometimes even 2 strokes.The new all-stainless steel Diablo Octane Fairway Woods are built for power. I like my chances a lot better with a wedge leaving me 20 feet with a putter in my hands on the next shot than I do with a fairway wood that requires my absolute best shot. Better to lay up and simply play for a comfortable wedge or short-iron into the green imo. Seldom do I use a fairway wood if I have to avoid trouble in front of the green and I know I'm nearing my typical max-carry yardage to clear. But even then - I'm always considering the risk involved. My fairway wood play has improved over the past couple of seasons, simply out of necessity, as I find myself reaching for lumber a lot more often on the longer par4's and par3's at my club, especially if it's a back-pin and into-the-wind situation. I remember Tom Wishon years ago advocating that most players would be better served ditching the 3-wood and using the 5-wood, and he's a pretty good authority on the matter imo, as he's spent the entirety of his career trying to make the game easier for the average players. I'm not talking about those 'Tour Issue' heads that are all over the place! Good Luck!Ī vast majority of slower swing-speed players have trouble hitting fairway woods with less than 16-17º of loft. Not sure how many OEMs actually put out 'Tour' heads besides Callaway, but look around on Ebay. I did change out the shafts for something heavier as those stock shafts are just junk.
No, I can't hit them perfect every time, but they get me close to where I want to be. heads, but that gives them the op to roll out plenty, and we play in fairly windy conditions most of the summer here, so that(ballflight)helps. I use the older Callaway Diablo Octane 3 & 5, but the 'Tour' model, 15 and 18. The soles are not so flat, the faces are not so deep. Pay close attention to those clubs the Pros use and you will notice they almost look like hybrids, with the smallish heads. With the sole sometimes being very flat and several inches across, I think it's what makes them so hard to use. The head of those 3 woods are sometimes like looking down at a plump pancake.they are huge, wide. I always had trouble hitting those myself.
