Best fairway wood of 2021: The top 5

1. Titleist TSi2

What Titleist says: “For players seeking incredible speed and accuracy across the entire face. A deeper, lower CG pairs with the new Active Recoil Channel 4.0 to produce a consistently higher, faster launch.”

Here’s what GolfWRX members are saying

• @MPAndreassi: “I have a TSi2 7 wood on the way. The launch and flight of them is unbelievable for me.”
• @XanderSingh: “I’m gaming the TSi2 4w and 7w. still messing around with shafts for both, but they are great performers and very easy to hit off the tee and the ground.”

2. Ping G425 Max

What Ping says: “In the G425 fairways and hybrids, two shared PING innovations known as Facewrap and Spinsistency combine to deliver more distance and spin predictability for carrying trouble and hitting greens. A tungsten sole weight increases the MOI in the stainless steel heads for added forgiveness. ”

Here’s what GolfWRX members are saying

• @monkeyboy: “Added Ping G425 max 3 and 5 woods with stock shafts about 4 months ago. After many range sessions and rounds, I can accurately say that these are the best fairways woods I have owned. I think the main difference for me is how flat they sit at address; it just works well for me. I make better contact, more often with these clubs – from tee and deck. In the end, I really think that I could have gotten away with just the 5 wood – it is a powerhouse, many time distance is as good as the 3 wood, easier to control.”
• @quizzylish: “It’s a very nice fairway wood, and it took me a little bit to get used to the very shallow face and head shape; the sound is very different too. It is very straight and maybe even draw-biased; I had a hard time trying to hit fades unless I feel like I make a ridiculous swing, like holding off my release. “
• @uglande: “And don’t sleep on the 7 wood. It’s so handy and does not balloon like I thought it might. Really nice high but powerful trajectory.”

3. TaylorMade SIM2 Ti

What TaylorMade says: “When we brought back V Steel and combined it with SIM, our goal was simple. The lowest CG of any fairway we’ve ever created. In 2021, we’ve taken it low again. With a low CG, you can launch it higher with SIM2 Titanium.”

Here’s what GolfWRX members are saying

• @heavy_hitter: “They are lower spinning fairways, and they hit BOMBS!!”@bjno1300: “I’ve only had one quick session with mine, but on the monitor before I bought it, the numbers were great. Bought one off the shelf so didn’t have to wait, but now I’ve gotta dial it in with a shaft.”

4. TaylorMade SIM2 Max 

What TaylorMade says: “Multi-material construction and efficient weight distribution on the sole of the club deliver ultra-low CG for explosive distance, high launch and low spin.”

Here’s what GolfWRX members are saying

• @platgolf: “Played the Sim Max 5 wood with a regular flex Ventus shaft. This is one amazing club. It is long and straight! Unless something happens, it is in the bag. The sound off the face means business. No wonder these clubs have such a high rating here. Forgot to add, hitting off the turf is so easy!”
• @buckethat72: “I have hit both (TSi2 and SIM2 MAX) and feel the same way, can’t go wrong with either. I have been a TM woods guys for many years and sticking with the SIM Max2.”

5. Titleist TSi3

What Titleist says: “TSi3 fairways feature a new SureFit CG track technology, offering three unique positions to adjust club head CG to fine-tune ball flight with neutral, fade or draw flight.”

Here’s what GolfWRX members are saying

• @ak90: “I’m a high-speed player and, as mentioned above, love the TSi3 as a second tee club, but it is nearly worthless hitting into any green. Spin is very low, and flight is super penetrating. I really like the TSi2 for hitting into longer greens but don’t find myself hitting it off the tee very often. I’m still working that section of my bag out… I have a tsi3 18 degrees with a 10TX Ventus black that I use for a “driving iron” and interchange that with the TSi2 18 degrees.”
• @MH2: “I have found the tsi3 fairway very forgiving and easy to launch off the deck and an absolute beast from the tee.”
