Simple topic Here!!

What if any fairway woods will you game in 2013 and what shafts?  I know they are not out but this is wrx so you junkies have an idea!

Im gaming what I purchased but barely used in 2012 (played most of the year Driver to 3 iron due to my struggles)

Nike VR Limited Fairway Woods
3 and 5 woods - Diamana Blueboard 83g Stiff
Red VDR Grips

They feel incredible - are so crisp and solid on contact and long.  The 5 wood is money off the deck and the 3 wood is great off the tee.  

What you you guys gaming????

[rocker40]

Im going to get the 913Fd when it comes in in Feb 2013.

[Norboo]

I'll let you know after I hit G25, TEE CB5, JPX 825

[freddyottawa]

Not sure on the 3 wood yet, currently have the JPX 800, possibly the 825. What I really want is a MX700 3 wood. I have the 5 wood that i rarely have in the bag but it is the best fairway wood i've ever owned. I just wish I could find a 3 wood head.

[DrInhale]

TEE CB4 unless the CB5 beats it out of the bag.

[Joshzilla]

Will be sticking with my Nike VRs w/ Diamana Blue 83g.  It is a love affair.

awesome looking woods.  How do they feel? I love the VRS Fairway woods.

[AChapa8807]

I've got the VR_S 3,5 woods right now but may go back towards the VR Pro LE 3,5 woods I used to game before these. Still in love with them and can't go wrong with either of them!

[wickedhook]

Trying something new this coming season and dropping my hybrid and carrying a CB2 7 wood along with a CB3 4 wood. 7 has the stock X-Quad and the 4 has a 80g Prolaunch Platinum. Part of the reason for going with the 7 is I wanted a high confidence fairway finder and the hybrid just let me down one too many times. I am also carrying a 21* Bridgestone Airmuscle, which is a hybrid of sorts, and then 4 iron on down.

[homergolf]

I'm gonna sell my Ping Anser 4-wood and replace it with the g25 3-wood most likely.  The Vrs 5-wood is there to stay, unless, of course the g25 5-wood is good enough to replace it.

[atlanta golfer]

TEE Trilogy 5 wood and 7 wood with stock shafts.  Pretty inexpensive and under-rated clubs, imho.  Ditched multiple 3 woods and also 3 hybrid in favor of these.  These two clubs are more reliable and get me those key distances from 185 to 205 yards, either from fairway or tee.

i'll be sticking with the 910Fd 3 wood.  i really have to figure out my club between 3w and 3i though.   the ones i have now are:

Titleist CB 2i - best option from the tee by far, but no use other than from the tee.
Titleist 910H - best option from the fairway/rough, but can't seem to hit it from the tee at all (odd, really).
Titleist 906F2 - sky it from the tee basically every time, fairly inconsistent from the fairway.

if they made an 18* version of the Fd my problem would be solved...but nope.  i'll have to do some winter experimenting.

[JJK947]

Going with the Tiger-wannabe set up right now:

Nike LTD 15* Diamana Whiteboard 83X
Nike SQ2 19* Diamana Blueboard 93X

Awesome set up for me.  The LTD's are awesome off the tee but I had trouble with the tiny size of the LTD 5 wood off of less than perfect lies.  I will probably pick up another one at some point to try it again because I love the 3 wood so much.  The SQ2 19* has more loft (the LTD plays stronger than stated) and launches/spins higher than the LTD 19*.  If you have never hit a SQ2 you're missing out, these are probably one of the easiest FW's to hit but still be able to shape shots with.

I think I'm gonna get the 913 FD 13.5° with Gd Tour Ad Di 8s and a 913 F 17° with the same shaft as the FD but  might play it at 17.75° or 18.5° depending on what fills my 3+ wood and my 3i gap.

[ILBrad`]

I currently game the RBZ 3 wood and Nike vr pro limit ed 5.

I will probably test/buy the 913F and a G25. Curious about the covert as well. I use oban shafts in everything.

[Boogaloo_Jones]

Fairway:  Nike VR Pro Ltd. with stock shaft (current).  Might get a re-shaft but not sure which one.

Driver:  (in no particular order) Nike Covert, Taylormade R1, Callaway RAZR Fit Extreme, and Cleveland Classic Black.  Probably gonna go with a UST Attas shaft or an Oban Kiyoshi.

[JDorfler]

Accept for shafts I'm not seeing a huge uptick on fairway wood technology since they were first starting to be made from metal.  I'll stick with my Razr fit 3 wood with x-stiff green NV.

[FEWO]

980F 15* Diamana Blueboard 83s

[Golfjunki71]

913fd or covert
913h or covert

[sung1018]

First option is my current gamer TEE CB5. However, I just reshafted set of Nike SQ2 4w/7w with AXE Xcaliber. Going to game this awhile. If this doesn't work out going back to my CB5. It performs as advertised.
SQ2 was a project and just wondering why ppl talk so highly of it. Plus tiger woods carries it. Why not me.

I have the 913 3 and 5 woods on order.

I have the Xcaliber on wishon 949 4 wood. Shaft seems looser than stated flex.  Let me know how it goes for you.

[pedarius]

Srixon Z-Star 3W with 72g Miyazaki Dromos will enter its third campaign in 2013 as the most secure club in my bag other than putter.  Not a world-beater for distance (though it's not short by any means), but I still love the feel/sound and I've hit too many good shots and too few bad ones with it for a change to be anything other than a waste of money and a mistake.  (Though I'm sure that anyone looking at this post in, say, May will probably see my sig list something else.  Sigh.)

[Titleist-Golfer]

I've got the TM Vsteel (tour paintbreak) fairways, which I will keep unless the 913F's earn their way into my bag.

[Sidetracked]

Nike Vr LTD 3 wood w/ RIP Alpha 90X
Nike SQ II w/ stock stiff shaft right now. Hoping to buy a blueboard 93X or Alpha 90X next year.

These fairway woods will never leave my bag.

[Thrillhouse]

Sticking with the rbz tour with the matrix ozik black tie 8m3 in it. I feel like I've found one of those setups that's so good that I'll use it till it breaks. Plus it's getting some sweet looking sweet spot wear on it!

[Honman]

I've been playing a mizuno mp650 this season which has been good but I recently picked up an rc vs tour 14 with a whiteboard in that feels like its a monster from the couple of rounds I've had with it.

[tommy89]

titleist 906f4 alidila vs proto x flex. Not going anywhere!
