First Hit with My New 3 Wood


And just like that, a Ping fan was born

I got the driver off Facebook Marketplace a year ago for $180. I don’t think the seller realized what they had.

My 10-year-old 3 wood face cracked last week, so it was time to finally extend the family. Absolutely love it.

I had an old Ping 20 3 wood as one of my first upgrades. I played with it for 2 years and eventually quit using the driver because I was hitting 240 with the 3 wood nice and straight.

Then I spent 1000 dollars on a lightly used set of 425s when the 430s came out. Custom shafts fitted an extra inch for my swing. Got the LST driver, and 3 wood, 4 wood, 3 hybrid, and 5 hybrid. It changed my game because I felt great with every one of them. The driver took me a while to get used to but I’ll be sticking with Ping in the future

Ping 425s are also good, the driver sounds awful though it’s so loud.

I had to swap it out for the G430

My first hit with a fairway wood is always a toe chunk that leaves an everlasting dummy mark

I have a 3 and 5 wood, both with this distinct badge of honor

Just marking your territory

I just recently got one of these and it’s fantastic. Best 3 wood I have ever hit and easy to hit off the fairway

@lovi
Clearly at least one full dimple toe mark

Go birds

We don’t talk about the whiff

@lovi
They are a thing of beauty. Great purchase

Hitting the sweet spot always warms the heart

I need a slim 3 wood like that, I have a RBZ 3 wood and I can’t hit it for anything, yet I stripe my thin/slim 5 wood like 220 on a rope

RBZ were some of the toughest TaylorMade ever to hit

Interesting. They are long but that face is so chunky, hitting them really is a challenge

Got a second-hand one of these a few months ago. Just filled out the set with a 5 and a 7 to match. Fantastic clubs. You don’t have to do much, just put the face on the ball

@lovi
Just got the 7 wood and love it
