So not sure if anyone from Callaway will even read this but I just want to say thank you for making such a great club in their XHot fairway woods. I have a 5 wood and it has become my "Mr. Consistent do everything club". Over the past few rounds I have really got this thing dialed in and it has changed my confidence on the course.
Played 3 rounds of golf this weekend and used the club like crazy. I hit the ball 230 several times with it which is further than the current 3wood I have (it too will be an XHot soon). My ball flight is great and I just love hitting the club. The best part is that I have been able to hit 230 and then choke down the swing and use to hit 200. I have used it punch out and today we played in some good wind and I used it all day. My best shot today came on 18 a par 4 where the fairway runs out at 265. You then have to carry from the end of the fairway around 100 yards over water to a green that the water wraps back around so if you go long you're still in the water. Also the fairway is uphill from the tee box. So I pull out Mr. Consistent and bam right dead in the middle of the fairway. I am left with 175 to the flag. Normally I would just use a 5iron but with the wind and how high I hit the ball I new I would be risky with the flag only paces from the water. So once again I grab the 5wood and get ready to go for it.
My playing patterns are telling me know way I can pull it off. So I choke down and put a 1/2-3/4 swing on the ball and off it goes. Low under the wind right at the flag. The ball lands on the green with some action and rolls right past the cup and I am left with 7ft for birdie. Those guys did not know what to say. I went on to sink the putt.
Earlier in the round one of my buddies who hits the ball further than me was trying to get in my head about how he hits his clubs longer. So I challenged him to a 5wood shoot out. We dropped an extra ball and went at. I crushed by where his ball landed with easy.
Sorry for the long post but I feel great with this club in my hands. Thank you Callaway you have change my golf game. :clap:
