Currently in the market for a new 3 wood. Last club I will be buying for some time so want to get the right one. Over the last few weeks I have tried out the following.
913 f
G25
Covert tour
Jpx 825
X hot
Amp cell
Master model

Just wandering if there is any others people would suggest I give a try. I'm currently between the jpx and the amp cell.

What was up with the 913F? I am coveting one in the distant future! Maybe try the Nike Covert (non tour)? I am loving my VR Pro II 5 wood at the moment!
 
I'm not interested in the adams or rbz stage 2 just due to the graphics on the top. I've just fallen out of love with the stage 1 rbz. Used to love it but after some lessons which has seen my usual miss of a slice turn into a draw which is a lot less costly. I now just can't seem to stop hooking the rbz.

Maybe I was just having a bad day when I tried the 913 but I kept losing it right, may try again with that as that is what I wanted to like.

Liked the idea of the cobra as the loft can be changed from 13 to 16, weather this actually works or not I don't know. The jpx seemed stupidly easy to hit off the deck and seemed the straightest of all I tried.
 
I went looking for a 3 wood and was sold a 17 degree xhot pro. Damn thing is long! Longer than my 3 wood and happy off the fairway. Seriously more loft helps and with these hot faces you can do a bit more loft. The week before I popped one on a 10-15mph wind from the tee and measured it at 275 yards ... I was giggling like a school girl :) wish I could do that all the time!
 
I'm not really after distance. I can put my rbz out there along with my driver when I flush one. I need something that sits nicely between the driver and the 19 hybrid. Was abit windy today so going to try hit all my favoured ones on a calmer day and compare distances. Anyone tried the razr fit? Think that was the only stiff 3 wood left in DG that I hadn't tried today.

I did try it but it did not work for me the shaft was not right and I did not get a "hot" feel off the head, but try it. Try the xhot pro the project x shaft in the pro version is supposed to be real deal ...
 
With your swing I would start you off with Callaway extreme, john letter master model, and Adams ls, it's a little better to look at then the other super s range. Pop in and see me and we can take a look. All of the above are aimed at a lower launch, and that was something we looked at last time we spoke. Give me a buzz when the weather's better and we can free a bay and see what works best.

Yeah didn't get on with the master model, really dont like anything on the crown like the adams, the jpx seemed pretty low launch. Maybe drop in again tomorrow afternoon after my round depending on what the weathers like. You in tomorrow?
 
Yeah I'll be about tomorrow. Master model is a little open and the ls Adams does have a duller graphics, so the jpx and Callaway could be a good bet, we could look at the amp cell and maybe change the lofts about a little to get the flight and distance your after.
Poss see you tomorrow.
