Hi J,

Playing sonartec NP-99 3 wood withFuji touor platform 26.3 x flex although am looking at the new kamui fairway and the PRGR egg / egg spoon.

I reckon it is more important to get this club right than a driver!

5 wood - Cobra S9-1 PRO 18* w ozik xcon 6 S

PRGR Spoon 13*! My #5 is an 18* PRGR Egg.

The feel is a bit clinky and hollow but so far I can't find an easier more user friendly fairway wood.

    Ball: Penta TP
Really liking both my Yamaha 3 & 5 Woods, the V-Fw's with the SF-8 shafts in them. For a safe tee shot on tight holes I used to be a 2I guy until recently. The 5 wood is really long and I can get an easy swing 230-250 that stays put. Never been too confident with the woods compared to the irons but it's changing a little.

Epon 201, the most beautiful, wonderful feeling, powerful 3 wood I've ever used. However, it isn't forgiving, you better hit it flush and hard, I would only suggest it for 4hcp or better.

I'll be switching to the new Epon 202 when released and hope it's more forgiving. My 201 5 wood it great. I must admit to being curious about the EGG
