I pay 1.100$ graphite shaft Regular Stiff for my CallawayAi irons! But now I’m in love w/these Callaway! They hit longer their faces very forgiving if u are square, I think they aren’t for beginners I think Middle & Low Handicap players. Well I think Callaway did a very good job n specially for the price point! I like ur analysis good job!

I don’t think the adjustable hosel will change the performance noticeably.

Best,

Matt

I purchased the five wood and played with it today for the first time, after hitting it on the range yesterday. Performance on the range was transferable to the course, and in fact was better, probably due to better ball. Your comments on performance are “spot on!!,” easily the longest five wood I have ever played. Excellent review, I came away, first time out, with the same impressions. Confidence and affirmation (distance, easy launch, consistent ball flight, stability, etc.) is everything. I am considering the 3w after today, do you think the added weight from the adjustable housel will change performance?

I am easily 10-15 yards longer than my previous 7 wood. The ball flight is better and straighter. The feel is fantastic and I am extremely happy with my decision. I am contemplating a 3HL or 5 wood addition.

I do have these (3W,5W) and agree with the ball speed results. Little rocket launchers, they are!

The 3W is adjustable, but closing the face down is a big no-go for me, and the 5W isn’t adjustable, so cranking it down and open isn’t possible. 4W/7W seems like a great combo for a ton of people, and with their current 2X trade-in promo, I’d have ordered both if they’d made the 4W for lefties. Oh well! Glad PXG, Ping and Titleist make what I’m looking for, and I hope Callaway joins that group with next year’s fairway wood lineup hopefully having more options for lefty and/or adjustability on their higher-lofted woods. Really nice review, Matt, as usual.
