The Best Fairway Woods On Sale - Save With GolfOnline

Frequently asked questions

When do I use a golf fairway wood?

Fairway woods have a higher loft and a shallower club face, allowing you to hit the ball easily off the ground. They can be used off the tee, or once you've hit that perfect drive and find yourself in the middle of the fairway, use it for an approach shot, from a distance, to the green. Fairway woods also come in handy when you've been a little wayward off the tee and end up in the rough. Here they can give you a little extra loft to get your ball back in play and in a good position to attack the green.

How many fairway woods do I need?

As a beginner, you will generally start with a 3 and 5 wood in your bag. The head size and shape will vary depending on the manufacturer, but they are usually 140-180cc. Fairway woods make a great alternative to long irons because they are easier to hit and get a higher launch. It is important to find fairway woods that you are happy to use from the tee as well as the fairway. You may find a fairway wood off the tee is a better option than a driver on the shorter, tighter holes where accuracy is paramount over distance.

Should I get custom fit for fairway woods?

Having your golf clubs custom fit to your unique swing can reveal game-changing improvements for your overall golf score. In terms of your fairway woods, a custom fit session will look at your current clubs and assess where your strengths and weaknesses lie.

What flex should I have on my golf fairway wood?

Flex on a golf club refers to the amount of bend the shaft can handle, and the give you need will depend on the type of swing you have. Ideally, a player with a strong swing speed should be looking at a less flexible shaft so they can keep control of the ball off the face of the club, while a player with an average swing speed needs something with a little more flexibility. Flex can vary from manufacturer to manufacturer, but the golf fairway woods you choose should be flexible enough to provide the distance and accuracy you need, while staying in control.
