Callaway X Hot Fairway 3 wood

Has anyone tried this fairway wood? Would like to buy it but don't have where to test it here down south.

Looking forward to your opinions,

Regards,

Scuba

I like it off the tee, but I don't like it off the fairway.

What aspect don't you like off the fairway? It looks like the standard callaway sole plate.

Re: Callaway X Hot Fairway 3 wood

It's not...it is big first off, and alot broader than either the warbird or BB 04 models...




I hit this and couldn't stand it...but I have a thing about callaway, so I would point to personal product dislike...

Re: Callaway X Hot Fairway 3 wood

I played with the X Hot today and was impressed.

This club is at least 10 yards longer than any 3 wood I have ever played. I also found the trajectory of the ball pleasing to me. I would say I was within 10 yards of my driver with this 15 degree 3W.

As for difficulty to hit off the fairway, I would say that you must take a nice swing with these in the fairway. Don't try to kill it. The one thing that takes some adjustment is that the club length is 44 inches, where most 3 woods are at least 1 inch less. This may take some adjustment for some people. I felt comfortable right away.
