would you bend your 3 iron into a 4 iron?

there are considerations and especially it will change the integrity of the club head design.

there is a difference between trying to save money and trying to optimise one's game.

Not to save money but as you know it is not easy to find a 4 wood in Singapore

The Tity 910 has 17 deg i think

Go get those 3 wood with 16*. There are quite a number of them out there. Or go for Cally, they always have those 4FW which is about 16.5* or 17*. I know I have a friend using 5W but using 3W shaft length.

I know that guy too but i heard his new shaft is in 5 wood length.

I have the 910 17deg. Intend to reshaft that one. Feel its too stiff. Prefer easy swing. My 910fd only will use off the tee. That one no prob.

before most golfers dwell into fairway wood shaft, they should understand that the choice of heads and loft are equally important...

i have seen guys coming in with 14 degrees fw heads and with their speed they are better of with a 17 degree fw head.

if you do not have enough clubhead speed its better to use a 5 wood to achieve better percentages result than a 3 wood. for that matter a 4 wood is the best solution IMHO, but most equipment manufacturer will not bring those it cos instead of selling you 2 pcs, you only buy one...Got it??
