Big Bertha 2004 9-7-5-3 Woods

Summary:
I bought a set of these off eBay as a starter set of fairway woods. They look nice but I have never been able to hit them with any degree of consistency. I know that my swing needs a lot of help, and I am working on that, but I picked up an Adams Tight Lies strong-3 wood and bombed it straight over the 150 yard marker at the range on my first stroke. Sorry, but the Callaways just came to end of their usefulness in my bag.

Probably a good club for a better golfer, but for a rookie like me there are much easier clubs to hit that are available at much better prices.

Summary:
I wanted to give a review of the 2004 callaway big bertha 5+ and 7 fairway woods. These clubs are AMAZING! I recently purchased them for a very affordable price and the performance you get out of them is a steal! The look and feel of them alone is worth it. But then you hit them and you can't believe how far and true they fly. I highly, highly recommend any golfer to purchase these clubs and add them to your bag immediately. They are great from the tee, fairway, and rough. I wanted to share this with all golfers out there to help their game.

15-degree 2004 Callaway 3-wood

Summary:
My last review was in Sept.2006, I've been playing with this club since then (after reshafting with Grafalloy Blue ProLaunch) and I am really enjoying this club (I have to admit that Callaway stock shaft did not work for me). Off the Tee I could hit 200-210 yds with very good ball dispersion. I am not a long hitter so I have to reply on playing smart and accuracy. This Callaway club is as good as any 3-wood club out there, IMO, if not better... I also bent my X-16 Callaway irons to 2-degree upright and they make a HUGE difference in my game. I am consistently shooting in the 87-92 now, so hopefully I will be playing much better by the end of this season

Customer Service:
No one is better than Callaway in terms of customer service... Period !!!

Callaway BB 2004 15-degree 3-wood

Summary:
I am not a very long hitter, shooting in the 87-95 range which is Ok with me. I have a 15-degree 3-wood that came with the Callaway R-flex stock graphite shaft. I liked it but I had to compensate too much when I used it (it's not the club, it's my swing), i.e. I had to slightly close the club face with a strong grip and aimed left with the hope that the ball will land on the fairway (it works 75% of the time). I had it reshafted with the R-flex Grafalloy ProLaunch Blue and it sure made a big difference, I hit it at least as long as before , but more importantly now I have a "square" set up and "neutral" grip which I feel a lot more comfortable with... The ball now has a much better flight because I don't have to close the club face... With time, I am pretty sure that I would enjoy this club a lot more. In fact, I like the Grafalloy ProLaunch Blue shaft so much I am going to reshaft my Callaway Titanium 2004 360cc driver with it, hopefully my game would be more consistent... I think the Grafalloy Prolaunch has a 2.8 low torque

Customer Service:
Callaway customer service department is the best. I would rate it A+++++ . I buy Callaway golf clubs due to its customer service department. Callaway will bend backward to work with customers. This is the model that other companies should use as benchmark
