I'm not sure if there is a thread about this, so if there is I am sorry. But these fairway woods need to get some love. It seems, to me anyway, that everybody is always talking about the X Hot Fairways. Which is cool, it's a great bat. But I also believe that the RFX is every bit the club the X Hot is, If not better. Now this is just my personal opinion, but I had the X Hot. I bought it blind off the Cally website before it was even in stores. I never buy a club without hitting it first. When it was delivered to me, I took it up to my nearest Edwin Watts and hit it on the lm. Was absolutely crushing the ball. It was the first 3 wood I didn't have trouble hitting from the deck. Right when I thought it was a done deal, I picked up the RFX 3 wood and said "wth! Might as well". Man, I'm I glad I did. I hit it so much better, more consistently, and it felt better to me. It was a no brainer. Traded the X Hot, brought home a RFX.
Now that you know the back story, I want to touch a little on my prior relationships with 3 woods off the deck. It was a hate/hate relationship lol. I absolutely dreaded hitting from the floor. If I had a little grass under it, I was fine. But off the fairway, no way. This FW changed that forever. I love hitting it off the deck! In fact, I think I use it way too much lol.

This is probably the best looking stick I've ever seen. The black/green is just gorgeous. I love looking at it in my bag, alongside my RFX driver, but love it even more from address. The smaller head size just works for me. Reminds me of a 910/913 F that Titleist offers. Just very classic, yet has a new school attitude with it.
--Feel--
Just like the driver, it has that feeling of a buttery soft blade hit on the sweet spot. Words can not describe the way these woods feel. I mean, I've hit drivers that sound/feel good and soft. But nothing holds a candle to this. With the smaller head, it's very easy to work the ball. I never thought I would be able to hit fades and/or draws at will with my fairway wood. Also, even with the small head size, it's extremely forgiving. Which is something I think everyone wants in a fairway. The Aldila Trinity shaft is a good choice for the FW. I didn't care for it in the driver, but love it in the FW. So easy to load and is so smooth.
--Performance off the deck & tee--
This is where the stick really shines. As I stated above, I wasn't much of a FW wood type of guy. I carried one just in case I was having a good day. But this one is just so easy to hit long and straight. If my driver wasn't so enjoyable to hit, I'd probably be hitting 3W on every Par 4 tee shot. Off the deck is the same story. Mid-High launching bombs all day long. Anyone could hit this from the deck.
--Conclusion--
The RFX Fairway is legit. Not only easy to hit, but fun to look at. Callaway's line-up this year is beyond legendary and calls for a standing ovation. The green/black beauties are here to stay in my bag. Which is quite an achievement with how big of a club ho I am. I give the Razr Fit Xtreme Woods a 5/5 star rating. If you are looking for new weapons in the top of your bag, you have to be hitting these!
