Howdy y’all.
Maybe 4 or 5 years ago, the Maruman Shuttle was so easy to hit and launch super high. Then they sort of changed the newer versions and they don’t seem quite the same.
so my question is….for moderate swing speed, what’s the easiest fairway wood to launch right now?
I’ve owned every US brand and a handful of JDM. Just curious on your experiences.
thanks!!
If anyone happens to have some Ryoma they want to sell....fairways - F5, F7, F9 - and utilities - 27,30 - please let me know.
Probably R flex, SR flex, or BP I’m in the US
Thanks
I need a 52-53 and 58-59 that really spin the ball on short and half shots. Who has some suggestions? I don’t need them with conforming grooves as I am just a weekend hacker. Thanks!
Hey Chris,
I read your blog on this. Dumb it down for those of us with sub par intellect. Ball launches high or low? Spin is high or low? Average swing speed need not apply?
thanks. It’s a cool looking club.
I fit the mold of what your mate is looking for. XXIO driver and fairways are really easy and forgiving. Hybrids are good. I would put XXIO above Ping or any other club for forgiveness. Not the longest but really easy to hit. Their shafts are like noodles so go up a flex or two
Maruman Shuttle is very easy for fairways and hybrids.
I have the XXiO X irons which are very good but they are very big. I have the Yamaha UD+2 irons which are very good. And I had the Titleist Type D irons which I did not like. They are oversized but I didn’t think they were easy to hit. I’m 45 with a driver swing speed of 90 and a handicap of 5. I’ve not hit the Honma irons so I can not comment.
