Dec 22, 2021

In our forums, our members have been discussing the best budget 3-woods. WRXer ‘BryanwMilburn’ kicks off the thread, saying

“I just threw a couple of Adams Idea Pro A12 hybrids back in the bag that I got for $50/piece (for the fun of it), and man, they’re still SO good and as good as anything I’ve tried in the last 8-10 years! Trying to see if there’s something out there for cheap I can throw in the bag for the 3-wood too. Thanks!”

And our members have been sharing their picks that can be picked up for less than $100.

Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.

puttingmatt: “Tour Edge pre-owned, or Callaway pre-owned, best values in golf.”
Mitchell: “Titleist 917f2, so good that still played by a few players on various tours (Keith Mitchell, Scott Stallings, Jonas Blixt, Paul Waring, etc.).”
lefthack: “I have not paid $100 or more for a 3-wood yet. My Honma XP-1 is amazing. I tried to talk myself out of it, but it just delivers.”
drumdude96: “Do yourself a favor and get an Adams Super LS. They are titanium (I’m pretty sure), are easy to hit both from the tee and the deck, and the ball goes a mile with them. Easily one of the best 3-woods I’ve ever had.”
CUBuffaloes: “Cobra F7. I have one, and it makes it back into the bag every now and then if my current gamer isn’t behaving. I don’t plan on ever selling it.”

Aretera officially launches Alpha One shafts, available at Club Champion

As we reported earlier this year, Alex Dee, along with a group of industry veterans, have officially launched their own golf shaft company, leading with the Alpha One. Now you can get your hands on that shaft at Club Champion.

The Alpha One Blue and Gray series are debuting Aretera’s PowerGrid technology. Aretera is the first company to use spread tow woven carbon fabric in multiple layers at full length comprising over 50 percent of the shafts weight in design for maximum stability with a uniform feel.

These materials, novel in their application at this level, aim to offer high-level structural benefits compared to traditional unidirectional composites.

Speaking on the new shafts, Alex Dee stated:

“A lot of shafts have had to sacrifice feel to get stability. We’ve found ways to get it back. And it’s not a compromise.”

Aretera launches on April 1, 2024 at all Club Champion locations nationwide.
