gocchin Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 After many requests from customers to get Kamui's fairway wood in the pro shop, so we thought we would get a few heads in to check out. Yesterday I received a custom 3 and 5 wood from Kamui and they are indeed a simple and clean design with a very traditional shape and mid height or semi shallow face depending on how you look at it. The Kamui FW is hand made to spec just like the Kamui drivers that TSG carries. Each Kamui Fairway Wood is made from soft SUS630 for the body and a FORGED high maraging face. Maraging steel is stronger than SUS630 so can be made thinner providing soft feel and POP off the face at impact. The heads are considered mid to smaller sized heads with a pear shape. As always Kamui's are hand made made to exact specs. Keep in mind also that while I list adjustment guidelines here, it is NOT uncommon for Kamui to be able to adjust even more beyond these guidelines. 3W Loft 15* plus/minus 1* Lie is 59* plus/minus 1* (or more) Face Angle 2* closed to 1* open (but like the driver 2* is probably doable) Weight is 207g and can be increased up to 217g 5W 18* plus/minus 1* Lie is 60* plus/minus 1* (or more) Face Angle 2* closed to 1* open (but like the driver 2* is probably doable) Weight is 214g and can be increased up to 223g 7W 21* plus/minus 1* Lie is 61* plus/minus 1*(or more) Face Angle 2* closed to 1* open (but like the driver 2* is probably doable) Weight is 223g and and can be increased up to 232g Like the Kamui drivers the Kamui fairway wood can be purchased as head only or custom built with any of the best shafts Japan has to offer. The Kamui FW will be in the shop this weekend with a head only price of 299.00. If you need help with specs or need recommendations or a custom quote, as always feel free to contact me. Lots of pics on the blog! http://www.golftoimpress.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duffer19 Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 T, perhaps you can ask whether Kamui can do a 16.5/17* 4-wood. It seems that a 4 wood is popular now as it would free up the bag for a 7 wood plus a couple hybrids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vineman23 Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 I'm also looking at that in between 4 wood area. It is fantastic that we now have the option of hand made to our specs now to choose between weakening the 3 wood loft or strengthening the 5 wood. T do you have any volume numbers on the heads? it will be interesting how many cc's different the heads are! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoon Posted January 25, 2010 Report Share Posted January 25, 2010 a weak 3 wood and a strong 5 wood will bring you in 4 wood territory. 16/17* would suffice. still debating on what head to go for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
