I would just like to mention the new Ping G15 fairway wood (3 wood) and the place I purchased it from.
I've been playing for 2½yrs and moved up to a driver last year. Being fairly new, I opted for a regular flex, 10½° Cleveland hibore XLS driver but was unable to control a full swing - I kept cutting across the ball, creating a slice. With my three quarter swing I was consistently attaining around 220yards and fairly straight.
My iron play was fairly poor which left a large range gap from driver to 5 iron, around 40-50yards so I sought a new club. I was looking for a 3 wood and a friend mentioned the Ping G15 range and recommended I may be better with a stiff shaft due to my driver scenario.
My local Golf club Pro Shop at Deangate Ridge in Kent allowed me to try both shaft types and opted for the stiff shaft - they even adjusted the price a little to give me a better deal.
I have since used the club out on the course and it has changed my game, not how I expected though. My reason for buying was to fill the gap between driver and 5 iron but I am striking it so well that I am out driving my driver, off the tee with it.
It sits comfortably behind the ball and has filled me with confidence from virtually every lie. I am able to strike it 230-250 yards which unfortunately hasn't helped my gap between driver and 5 iron.
I would highly recommend this club - Ping G15 fairway wood.
