I like it. You know my issues with the Classic FW's but I have the F3 now with Kusala Blue and it's awesome.

That thing is a cheater stick. Who would ever get rid of a club like that? Oh, wait....

I like color so much I picked the color that is made up of all the other colors.

Don't get me wrong, I love white shoes, white belts, and white hats, white hats just don't always last too long.

An awesome Morgan Cup champion dude.

He has a gorgeous swing too.

Hit and miss right now. Actually used it 4 times off of the tee today, hit 3/4 fairways. Still struggling with some hooks right now, can't figure out if it's my swing or the club. For some reason, I feel like I'm standing really far away from the ball when I'm hitting that club, it's a little odd. I'm not in love with the club right now, but it's probably staying in my bag because I can't buy anything else right now.

It definitely seems oddly draw biased for a "pro" club. I hit it well but I account for a draw even on days when I am playing a fade with other clubs. If I'm fighting a draw with the driver I know not to touch my 3 wood.

It's HUGELY forgiving though, once again surprising. Yesterday I hit one WAY out on the toe of the club. THe ball got up in the air in a hurry, and just carried with a nice high draw, I was walking and couldn't believe how far out there it go me, probably only lost 10 yards or so, put me in the perfect spot.

It's really forgiving when I don't hook the crap out of it. I'm actually struggling with hooks on my fairway wood and hybrids right now. I'm used to playing a draw off of the tee, but 20-30 yard hooks are not good at all.

Now, let me state, I know the issue with flex fits are it means more inventory and its more difficult to deal with all the different sizes. I'm just randomly talking and not knocking anything.

I know, but with flex fit you could do S/M and L/XL and be covered.
 
3 or 4 wood. Thinking Xhot, Cobra Amp or maybe even G25. I'm going to have a lot going on with my bag in the next couple months.

The G25 FW is a beast and easy to hit. I can't say enough positive things about it. It's become my go-to on the tee when I need to hit a more accurate but still long shot. It plays very well from the fairway and light rough as well. I should call it "Clutch".

Though I keep looking at deals on 3 Deeps. Just wondering if I could squeeze out a few more yards but still hit it accurately.

Agree with this. I think its a great 3W. For me I would opt for the higher launching G25 4 wood, I dont hit 3W's too well. The 4W Bridges the gab for me perfectly and is a bomber in its own right!
 
PXi for the MD2.
 
Thinking about getting a 5W since I cant hit a hybrid worth a darn..
 
I can't shake the extra hybrid ponder... I'm hitting my 4 iron better, but I have to think there's something to be had with a bit more forgiveness in the 21-23 spot.

This altitude thing could actually happen.

Correct me if I am wrong, but didn't you shoot a 68? I'm not sure you need to Change anything

Serious question: how often do you use that club in a round? If it's only 1-2 times per round, I wonder how much you would really need to change it.

The beauty of a ponder my good man!!!! It'd have to kick the 4i out of the bag (which I did hit extremely well today).

Today, I used my 4 iron 5 times. Surprisingly quite a bit. There are quite a few times where I want accuracy of an iron but would like something with a bit less turf interaction to guarantee distance numbers.

Here's an idea: play a hybrid, but also play the same shaft as you do in your current 4 iron. The shaft length in a standard hybrid is going to be a bit different than a 4 iron length, so keeping the iron shaft in there at your current length could keep you from having gap issues.

You got it!!!! I'm thinking about hard stepping a CTL 3 iron shaft in S into an altitude 4 or a hybrid of comparable loft. Slightly lighter, but heavier than my other shafts.
