How often do you use yours?

Take a moment to think about this question: what is the most underused club in your bag? If you’re answering truthfully, our money is on your fairway wood, which could easily become one of your go-to clubs if you carefully consider the different test each hole provides.

Play for position

Are you guilty of always pulling driver with barely a thought to the hole you’re on, the day’s wind or ground conditions? If some of you considered the challenge more carefully, we’re sure a fairway wood would be a wiser play more often. For example, you can take a hazard completely out of play or leave a full shot to the green instead of an awkward pitch - as illustrated by the graphic here.

Wilson Staff D300 fairway

Do you trust your fairway wood?

Of course, you can only rely on playing a safer
shot if you trust your fairway wood to be a consistent option. If yours often leaves you in trouble, perhaps you should consider a fitting to find a model more suited to your swing?

Try this option from Wilson Staff

One we’ve had a lot of success with is this Wilson Staff D300 fairway which has a versatile sole and comes in a choice of 3-wood, 5-wood and 7-wood. Click on the image above to learn more about this product.

This fleece will look great on and off the course thanks to its classic styling, but its real strength is its Sensorwarm fabric technology that traps warm air in while keeping the fleece very lightweight.
