Do you use a 5 wood?

That's the sort of thing I was looking for. If that's the general view then I'd defo count it into the buying process. Only reason my GG stat is so low is because I duffed an 84 yarder off the 3rd one night thinking I'd Tiger it lol. Pure shocker. I think I laughed for that whole hole. My mate was calling me Happy Gilmour for the rest of the round.

I'm going to give it a try again after work. I've been to the gym this morning so I should now be able to hit it a mile.

Should of hit your 4 iron ..... :rofl:
 
I've put this exact club in my bag,and I've got ocd when it comes to clubs, it has no place in there! It's a lovely club, great off the deck and sneaky long off the tee, It has opened up par 5's for me. I've been having swing issues of late and can honestly say this is the one club I don't think I've had a bad hit with yet. It was as long as my 3w so I don't see the need for one anymore as I couldn't hit it for toffee off the deck

once in a blue moon hits don't count for much, your stats say 220 for driver and 175 for 3 wood, i once hit a drove 420 yards it was down wind on a concrete hard fairway and has no relevance to how far i usually hit a driver.

Sim in AG are always tricked up to make you buy things.

I think the AG sims are set up for the best conditions, Its not a lie its just conditions we rarely get to play golf in.
 
I tried the sldr 5 wood again. It just sailed into my bag. There's a driving range next door to the shop so I went in there to hit a few. No glove on and it just felt so nice. I can see why people like this club.
 
Love my Ping G20 5w.
Excellent club for 2nd shot on par 5s & long par 4s.
If I'm struggling with driver I hit 5w off the tee.
 
So I took the SLDR S up the range last night. Tried both the 5 wood and my Ping G15 3 wood. All in all, I can't say I'm thinking of keeping my Ping. It wasn't difficult to launch the ball with the SLDR but yet both clubs all landed all and around the same patch of grass on the range. If the 5 wood is this good, how is the 3 wood?

It's a lovely wee club although my Mrs is starting to get quite annoyed with me now buying clubs.
 
Put the 913 5 wood in thus year after trailing a ping g30. Fantastic clubs. Lengthy and high flight. What more could a girl need?
