Summary: I'm not sure how anyone could find a negative in this stick?
I have played most brands and most shafts searching for something that I could call a "GO TO" club off the tee.
This thing is brilliant.
I reshafted with my driver shaft (Bi-Matrix) at 44" and had it MOI matched to my setup and I dont think I will be using a driver for a while.
Once you get over the EGO of not hitting that one monster drive in a blue moon, you soon come to enjoy the fact that you can grip and rip off the tee and not be in the bushes.
Another great quality of this club is that it is designed for use off the deck - so even though you sacrifice a bit of distance off the tee ... on the long par 5s you can have a go at them for two.
Keeping the ball low is a more natural process with this club than with the new-age drivers.
All in all - give it a go - and watch your enjoyment go up and scores impove.
Customer Service: Excellent in the past.

But Callaway usually find their way into my permananet setup for fairway woods.

Summary: I was in the market for a 3 wood, looking for more loft and distance. I found this club at a local Golfsmith used and decided to give it a try. This club is very difficult to hit, in fact, I have actually reduced my loft and hit nothing but low bullets everything I hit. Stock regular shaft plays more like a stiff shaft. The original callaway s2 warbird 3 wood is much more forgiving and provides more loft.

Summary: I strongly dislike this fairway wood. I went out and decided to buy something expensive thinking thats its good. Yeah silly me i have a low budget and wasted my money on this club. If anyone knows club design they see that this club that the fatest sole and there is no way i can see someone with a 115 swing speed to get this thing off the fairway. It does look so cool though but you dont look so cool when you top 2 fairway shots in a row. I finally husled it to a friend and got 200 bucks for it and i bought some new balls and a taylormade v steel and droped my score 5 shots into the 70's.
Customer Service: never used it

Summary: I have enjoyed the FT# Driver, and needed a fairway wood. I have had it for about 2 months and raely hit it straignt off the fairway. I have started using the FTE Hybred (WOW) with much more success.
I can hit this fairway wood well off a tee, just not off a fairway. Go figure
Customer Service: Always right there when needed (rarely)

Summary: Great stick for any skill level. Great distance and enough forgivness that it doesn't act like a "tour only" type club. Stock NVS 55 gram shaft in stiff is enough even for a 115-120mph swing speed with good tempo. Just like my FT3 Tour with a Fuji TourPlatform 26.3, it goes where it's pointed and with considerable distance.
Customer Service: Never had to use, but have bought from Callaway Used Golf.com and service was great.
Similar Products Used: All the oem's. TourEdge Exotic is very long. Most of the stuff out there is outstanding IF you can hit it. If you're not a single digit, then go for the bigger heads.
