Top Ten: Beginners Fairway Woods

Written on Wednesday, 27 July 2011

Many beginners immediately pick up a driver for their tee shots. But, in so many cases less experienced golfers would be better off with a fairway wood until their technique has had time to develop. We round up some of the best fairway woods for beginners. Read on for our Top Ten Beginners Fairway Woods.



Number one Top_Ten_Fairway_Woods_1 Callaway Diablo Octane Fairway Wood  With a range of loft options, Callaway's exceptionally forgiving Diablo Octane is great for improving your game. Designed specifically for the aspiring golfer, it will really allow you to get your technique down.
Number two Top_Ten_Fairway_Woods_2 Ping G15 Fairway Wood Now a couple of years old, the G15 is still a firm favourite among many golfers. The external weight pad on the sole allowed the engineers to lower the centre of gravity, which makes for a fantastically high, long ball trajectory.
Number three Top_Ten_Fairway_Woods_3 Cobra S3 Max Fairway Wood A large clubface and Fujikura Blur shaft make for a fantastic club in the Cobra S3 Max, and with the low centre of gravity you can be sure of a really high launch, too. A really consistent club and perfect for high handicappers.
Number four Top_Ten_Fairway_Woods_4 TaylorMade Burner Superfast Fairway Wood  The lightest fairway wood that TaylorMade have ever produced, with the largest clubhead: a fantastic fairway wood which is well balanced and feels fantastic. Hitting some real distance feels effortless with this club.
Number five Top_Ten_Fairway_Woods_5 Nike SQ Machspeed Fairway Wood  Nike claim that this club will deliver greater ball speeds than any fairway wood they have previously produced. Combine this with a large sweet spot and high levels of forgiveness and you've got a great club for any beginner.
Number six Top_Ten_Fairway_Woods_6 Callaway RAZR Hawk Fairway Wood  If you've got plenty of cash to spend then you could do far worse than picking up Callaway's latest club. Engineered from a new material developed in partnership with Lamborghini, this club is exceptionally strong, light, and will have you hitting accurately right off the tee.
Number seven Top_Ten_Fairway_Woods_7 TaylorMade R11 Fairway Wood  This is a fantastic club which will help you achieve a long, high ball flight with a great amount of precision. It's adjustable, too, so you can make sure that it fits your game perfectly and evolves with your technique.
Number eight Top_Ten_Fairway_Woods_8 Cleveland Golf Launcher FL Fairway Wood  Designed with higher handicappers in mind, the Launcher FL is light enough to really make a difference to each stroke: faster head speed means faster ball speeds, which will really help you to get some serious distance.
Number nine Top_Ten_Fairway_Woods_9 Golden Bear Golf Fairway Wood The first thing you notice about this club is the price: the cheapest on this list by a significant amount, there's no questioning its value for money. A powerful, lightweight club that you'll want to use at every opportunity. You really can't do better for the price.
Number ten Top_Ten_Fairway_Woods_10 Callaway FT iZ Fusion Fairway Wood The FT-iZ is suitable for all levels of golfer, but it's superb accuracy and feel makes it a perfect choice for beginners. Designed with the aim of breaking the distance barrier in mind, this is one club you're likely to keep in your bag even as your handicap lowers.
