Model Reviewed: SS-2.5 14* - Accra HF

Played the sonartec 2.5 in the past and really liked it, but never had the correct shaft - there was always something missing. Switched over to Titleist 906f2 15* with GD YS-7+ and used for 2 seasons. Really liked Titleist fairways but needed more distance out of my 3-wood. Very accurate but not perfect. Picked up a used mint SS-2.5 14* that happened to have an Accra HF SST-pured M3 shaft for $35. Unbelievable. After three years of messing around with literally tons of fairway woods and shaft combos, it was sonartec all along. Way more solid than Titleist heads, the SS-2.5 delivers a solid "THWACK" with tremendous power and accuracy. I opened the face 1-1.5* this time - my std ballflight is a slight draw and the open face keeps away my miss, a 20 yd hook. Huge difference. Baby fades, baby draws on command with this head. Long flat trajectory with extremely solid feel. You will not go wrong with this head and can pick them up dirt cheap. The stock shaft is junk, try some new shafts.

First, if you can't put a good swing on the ball, look elsewhere for a fairway wood. Second, the regular flex shaft plays more like an A flex. I switched it out for a stiff (which plays more like a regular or firm) and the club was much better.

This club hits low and fairly hot. It took half a bucket of balls for me to adjust to this club and in fact I killed a few worms along the way. If you need help getting the ball in the air look elsewhere.

The club feels very solid on good strikes and if you don't catch it well ... you'll know. If you can work the ball, this club will let you go left or right. Output pretty much equals input with this club. If you have a good swing, give it a try. You can get this club fairly cheaply now at the internet discount retailers.

Wow! What a club. I read that it was for better golfers, but I've had no problems whatsoever. I've never hit a club so well and so consistently. I can't say enough good things. I got it brand new on eBay for $57.00. What a steal!!!!

This is a very good fairway club. I have 14* & this is long and easy to hit. In HI fairways are tight and shollow face gets ball in air. Like upgraded Fujikura platform shafts. Very solid, good performer.

Incredible club! I have read it helps many golfers hit lower more piercing trajectories. I tend to hit low shots with my ping 3/5 woods and hit this higher. Not to high for the wind to take hold of. Very long club! Very straight! Nothing on the market compares. Went to a demo day today and hit 7 different 3 woods. Sonartec by far offers the best club. Closet club I hit would have been the Clevland, but not as long or forgiving. If you can't find a dealer near you buy with confidence on-line.

Model Reviewed: Sonartec SS 2.5 15* Stiff

This club sits perfectly and looks great behind the ball. When hit out the middle it flies a long long way, straight, and feels great. It does however take a lot of confidence to use it, as when im not playing well, things can go disasterously wrong. It is DEFINATELY a club for the better player, and forget it if you dont consistently shoot below 85. I love this club, but might change it as it is not the club for me, but a top class club it remains.

Model Reviewed: SS-2.5 14*

A very nice club. Nice low profile - not difficult to get the ball in the air. Great trajectory - doesn't balloon like a lot of fairway woods. The face might sit a little open (or it could just seem open since most clubs are a little closed). One gripe is the shaft - the stiff shaft seems more like a regular; a little whippy. If you have a really fast swing, might want to opt for another shaft or get an X.
