The Models Of Callaway 3 Wood Available
Sunday, January 31st, 2010Every golfer has a different swing as as such the Callaway 3 wood range has four different types of clubs in this club bracket. The most well known of these is probably the Big Bertha Diablo, there are also the X-Hot, the FT and the FT-i Squareway. Below I will describe the main benefits of each club and it’s defining feature, I will also talk briefly about when to use a wood and some common features of them.
The Big Bertha Diablo is as mentioned one of the most well known clubs the club head has been shaped to provide a longer shot length whilst still having excellent shot accuracy.
With the FT-i Squareway an inertial design has been implemented which allows for better action during your swing such as less twisting. The weight has been placed at the corners of the club head this means that you will always hit the ball with the full club face.
The X-Hot is designed to increase accuracy in hitting the ball the sole is split into two sections hich creates a smoother movement within the stroke. This design is exclusive to the Callaway X-Hot series.
For increased flight trajectory and shot shaping the club of choice should be the Callaway FT 3 wood. This model combines a mixture of elements to enable the Callaway engineers to weight the club to enhance its centre of gravity giving a more flowing feeling within the club.
The angle of the club face on a three wood is usually between 13 and 15 degrees, this is known as the loft of the wood. From a three wood you should be aiming to get the ball to travel around the 250 yard mark. When a driver is not an appropriate club for the tee off a 3 wood can be used. It is also handy for shots where the ball is just off the fairway or when the ball has a good lie in the rough.
A lot of technical thought goes into the designing of clubs as illustrated by the four models discussed above. The best way to find out which club is right for you is to actually go out and use it. Everybody has a different style of swing and as such a club that is good for one person might not be the best for another.
There are two main types of metal used for 3 wood clubs these being a titanium alloy or steel. Titanium provides greater power within the shot to due its lighter weight however it is more expensive than steel.
These metals as discussed above are also used for fairway woods too. The higher the wood the more loft that is achieved with it. An increase in loft means the ball will travel higher in the air and therefore a smaller length away from you.
The longest club in a Golfers bag is usually the 1-wood then followed by the 3 wood, 2 woods are available but are rarely used. Woods are good alternatives to drivers for beginners as they have a smaller face and as such make it easier to hit the ball.
