Summary: I picked up one of these for a company raffle. My cousin got it and I used it several times. Loved it so I bought the whole callaway X line. Lowered trajectory, easy to hit anywhere! Can hit it anywhere from 200-240, so on those days where my driver is not on, I pull this out. Never really balloon this club, and can keep the ball extremely low if needed. I'd suggest getting both the 3 and 5 too, 5 wood works great for getting it up in the air quick, and for long distance when you have tree/obstacles to clear. As well as can keep it low.
Great Clubs.

Summary: I find the club sets up closed and have to adjust stance accordingly-a little more centered. Tend to pull ball slightly left(right handed player) Club is great off tee, again really have to pay attention to set up. Good club but you really have to have the feel for it. There are easier 3 woods out there for the average player. Not knocking it just trying to help out those thinking of buying one.
Customer Service: never used them

Summary: I recently purchased the Callaway X Hot 3W with a Adila VS Proto shaft. This club is very long on a well struck ball. Also, it's very long off the tee. To give you an example of this club's benefits, I mis-hit a 230 yard drive on a 502 yard par 5 that I have never reached in 2. Instead of laying up I chose to use my 3w and see I close I could get the ball. With a nice easy swing I left the ball 10 yards short of the green. Imagine if I hit my normal 250 - 260 yard drive? I probably would flew the green by 30+ yards!!! That is something I've never done.
The shaft helps also. With the high kickpoint and torque the ball stays nice and low and runs forever.

Summary: This is one of the best clubs I've ever used. I carried a cheap, off-brand 3 wood and 5 wood for years, and I could hit them well off the tee, but I never had much success hitting them off the grass.
This club changed all that for me. Now, instead of laying up with a mid iron or gambling with a long iron, this is my go-to club to knock one greenside on short par 5's or keep it right down the middle on a tight fairway. It gets the ball up off the ground very easily, with a mid-high trajectory. It's also very forgiving; even off-center hits fly long and true. This is a perfect club for someone looking to add some consistency to their long game.
Customer Service: Callaway Pre-Owned Customer Service is always very helpful. Club was well protected and shipping was very fast.
