Larger than fairway woods in size, one of the most iconic clubs any golfer has in their bag is their driver, also
known as the 1-wood. The largest club by far, it is built around the concept of powerful swings and far-reaching
shots. The sound of a ball getting knocked off the tee is one of those perfect sounds any golfer loves to hear. Of
course, that sound should be accompanied by a view of their ball traveling hundreds of yards into the distance,
perfectly aligned towards the distant green. Then it's time for a fairway wood to come out of the bag.
What Are Fairway Woods?
After the drive off the tee, the next club out of your bag will probably be a fairway wood, depending on the hole's
length or par. Generally, fairways are mostly used after the drive off the tee on par-5 holes or long par-4 holes.
Drivers and fairway woods are traditionally all considered woods. The driver is the 1-wood, and the fairways are the
higher-numbered woods. And as their name suggests, fairway woods are typically meant to be used on the fairway for
longer shots that golf irons may not be suited for hitting.
What Exactly Is A Fairway Wood, Anyway?
Naturally, the fairway wood itself is built around these design necessities. The fairway wood club head is bigger
than the head on an iron and more closely resembles a driver. This larger club head makes it easier to hit, which is
essential since you still need to generate power and distance. The club also has a greater loft than the driver. And
this is because you are now further down the fairway, and you will need a higher arc to ensure you don't overshoot
the green.

Every Golf Fairway Wood is different, and you should be able to take advantage of the brand and model that best meets

Great 3 Wood
This Pre-Owned Taylormade Stealth 2 Hd Fairway Wood is the easiest to hit 3 wood I’ve ever owned (40+ years). Just naturally goes straight and flies long and high. Bought in what was advertised as “like new” condition. It was 100% brand new still in the factory plastic wrap.

Fantastic clubs
I bought the 3 and 5 Mizuno ST-MAX 230 woods and immediately started crushing the ball with each. The Mitsubishi shafts are paired perfectly to provide great penetrating ball flights which each club. I was a little apprehensive at first about buying them but when Mizuno dropped the price I just had to get them. These will be in my bag for many years.

Truly Impressed
I’ve been a tour edge fan fan for a long time based on the quality and value. I decided it was time to replace my HL4 3 and 5 woods. I was undecided between E 523 and E 522 fairway woods. I opted for the E 522’s because I have E522 5 and 6 hybrids. I am beyond pleased with the performance of these clubs. They’re as long as any fairway club I’ve ever played. They’re very easy to hit off any lie and I can control my shot shape way better than I could with my old clubs. The Houdini sole is excellent in any situation and allows for a high level of creativity in difficult conditions. I absolutely recommend you give Tour Edge clubs a try. I doubt you will find a better combination of performance , quality, and value.
