While Tour players, pro's and low handicappers, seem to prefer irons over woods (some may only have a driver and 3 wood in their bag), nontheless there has been an increasing trend to more woods and fewer irons. Over half of the inquiries we receive state that the longest iron the player hits well is the 5 iron. These same people are able to hit fairway woods in place of long irons and seek substitutions for the 3 and 4 irons. Others will prefer hybrid irons to solve the problem of getting long irons to lift the ball into the air at a proper launch angle. For this reason we have stressed fairway woods in the listing below, and have offered sets of irons, with the long clubs being optional, in our irons/hybrid section. This allows the player to economically pick what he really needs.
We have repeatedly noted that many players are using wood lofts, especially in drivers and 3 woods, that are much too strong for them. This is a recent quotation from Lanny Wadkins. "I played 8 degree and 9 degree drivers my whole life. When I switched to a 10.5 degree driver, the first thing I did was be able to get the ball up and turn it over. And I hit it longer". Unless the player has a swing speed 100 mph or better, driver lofts below 10 degrees and 3 wood lofts below 15 degrees, should prove counter productive. Most players will achieve greater distance by greater ball carry - by getting the ball in the air at a higher launch angle. Strong lofts also promote slicing, especially on the longer clubs.
The drivers offered range in volume from 300 cc's to 460 cc's. In theory the wider the head the less twist on an off center hit. In practice, however, slower swingers who have a slicing problem generally arrive at impact with the club face open and impart a glancing blow to the ball. The wider the head the worse the situation since it now becomes difficult to square up the head due to inertial drag. If the golfer cannot correct the problem through practice or lessons, experience has shown that most such players are better served with heads that are narrower, in the order of 94 to 98 mm's measured from heel to toe. For those who fight a hook, the wider heads will add toe drag and tend to straighten out the ball flight. Square hits on the face center typically add 10 to 15 yards to the drive with no increase in swing speed. Each player is unique and must pick those clubs that fit his or her swing, not what the Tour Pro's are using.
Fairway woods do not have to be matched to the driver model, or vice versa. If, for example, you have trouble getting a #3 wood airborne from the fairway then you should select a low profile model or a higher lofted model. Or select a strong lofted #5 wood and make it a little longer to capture more distance. Should you want to make a high lofted wood, a 5 , 7 or 9, an inch or more longer than standard then please check with us by e- mail. We will advise if the head weight is compatible with that length. When you use the swing speed table in the Club Fitting section to pick the shaft flex, you will have automatically taken care of matching the wood to your swing.
( All woods have our own proprietary performance graphite shafts. The Rapid Fire shafts are offered as an option in most cases).
Standard wood lengths are (except where otherwise noted) listed below, as well as the recommended shaft flxes:-
men women X stiff - above 110 mph
driver 45" 44" stiff - 100 to 110 mph
3 wood 44" 43" firm - 90 to 100 mph
5 wood 43" 42" regular - 80 to 90 mph
7 wood 42" 41" seniors - 75 to 80 mph
9 wood 41" 40" ladies - under 75 mph
11 wood 40" 39"

The people at Simple Golf have developed a package that works far better than any swing method we have tried, without a doubt. It is a single axis swing that keeps the clubhead square to the ball throughout the backswing and downswing--a feat never accomplished before! In about an hour you will be hitting the ball farther, with pinpoint accuracy, than you imagined possible. In about a week you will have grooved the swing for a lifetime. The Simple Golf price is $49.95 for the instructions, less than a pro lesson, for the most elusive thing in golf - a good swing.

Woods - Drivers
- M*a*g*n*u*m 550 Ultra XL driver, w/ beta Ti face, 460 cc's, 8, 10 & 12 degrees, w/ Rapid Fire shafts, RH
At 460 cc's, this is as large as the USGA allows! The design includes a deep face, a long length from face
to rear to enhance launch angle, and a reasonable face width from heel to toe so the player can more readily
square the face at impact. Our test players found the SP-700 beta Ti face to be fairly explosive - a "hot" face
that produced a penatrating ball flight with more hang time than before.
The specs. are :- face angle is 1 deg. closed; face height is 60 mm's; face width from heel to toe is 110 mm's;
and the depth from face to rear is 105 mm's.The player should use extra long 3&1/4" tees to obtain proper
launch angle.
 
The 8 degree model is most suited for strong players with very high swing speeds. Others, including low
handicappers with upright swings, will be best served at 10 degrees of loft. Slower swingers and
seniors are more suited in the 12 degree model. All will find very little twist on off center hits.
Special note:- Since these heads are very deep from face to rear ( 105 mm's ), they tend to produce a
higher launch angle than is customary. This is done because most players are better served by more carry
in the air. Therefore, players who carry the ball more than 240 yards will be able to hit the 8 degree model
with a good launch angle and plenty of carry.
The main body is finished in metallic black to reduce sun glare. There is an aiming arrow on the top
for ease in set up as you address the ball.
For those who are into very big heads, these are very enjoyable clubs.
Price ea. - 8 deg. w/ Rapid Fire graphite shaft - $105.00
Price ea. -10 deg. w/ Rapid Fire graphite shaft - $105.00
Price ea. -12 deg. w/ Rapid Fire graphite shaft - $105.00
Delivery - 4 to 6 business days
Mag*num 550 XL drivers, beta Ti face, 8,10,12,&14 deg. 410 cc w/ Rapid Fire graphite shafts RH
This is a model which allows the player to shift weight cartridges to 4 different locations, in many combinations, so that he or she can change the ball flight pattern. The launch angle can be increased or decreased, as desired. Spin rate can be raised or lowered as needed. The weights can also be positioned so a slice or a hook can be combated. Fairly neutral positions can also be obtained that permit the player to adjust to his or her particular requirements.
The design has the weight ports located around the perimeter of the sole, producing less twist at impact and therefore less inaccurate shots.
As is the case with any deep faced club, please use the longer tees, 2 3/4" or more, to insure that the ball is teed up high enough so the clubhead top is at or below the equator of the ball.
In conjunction with the wide flex selection of our new patented Rapid Fire Multi flex shafts, these shafts will fit any talent level and yield good performance.

- Pres*tige XPII Forged Ti 6-4 Driver, 11.5 degrees, 380 cc w/ standard or Rapid Fire graphite shaft RH
- This driver is made for those who swing at speeds lower than 85 mph ( less than 190 yards ), need a higher launch angle and more carry in the air. It is relatively compact with a modest distance from heel to toe to limit inertial drag and resulting slicing. It is highly recommended for players who use regular (R), seniors (A), or ladies (L) flex shafts who generally need more ball carry to obtain greater distance.
- The specs. are :- Loft - 11.5 deg.; Lie angle - 56 deg.; Face height - 57 mm; Face width from heel to toe - 97 mm. it also has a 1 deg. closed face to fight slicing.
 
- Price ea. $88.00 w/ Rapid Fire graphite shaft
- Delivery - 3 to 5 business days
- Pres*tige Classic Ti 6-4 drivers, 8.5 or 10 deg. loft, 420 cc w/ Rapid Fire graphite shaft, RH
- These are for the players who are faster swingers and can handle very large heads. The faces are slightly closed at 1 deg. to combat slicing. Those seeking a lower ball flight with more roll will choose the 8.5 deg. model, while those looking for more carry in the air should select the 10 deg.model.
8.5 deg. model - Lie angle - 56 deg., Face height - 53 mm, Face width from heel to toe - 103 mm.
10 deg. model - Lie angle - 56 deg., Face height - 56 mm, Face width from heel to toe - 101 mm.

- These are available in 350 cc's for those who prefer an intermediate sized head. For those players who want a very large head, we also offer the same model at 420 cc's.Both will better fit players with higher swing speeds.
350 cc model - Lie angle - 56 deg., Face height - 53 mm, Face width from heel to toe - 97 mm.
420 cc model - Lie angle - 56 deg., Face height - 56 mm, Face width from heel to toe - 103 mm.

- Delivery - 3 to 5 business days
- Pres*tige Classic driver, Ti 6 - 4, offset, 13 degrees, 350 cc's w/ Rapid Fire graphite shaft RH
- This driver is the answer for those who slice the ball. For many reasons ranging from, no chance to
play or practice a lot; age; bad backs; lessons don't seem to hold, etc. many players cannot overcome
slicing.
- With the slice is a loss of distance. The open face imparts a glancing blow to the ball and the full
energy of is not transferred to the ball.
- The offset helps square up the club at impact. The higher 13 degree loft produces higher launch angles
needed for more carry in the air and more distance overall. These heads are 96 mm's wide, from heel
to toe. Experience shows that it is much easier for the player to bring the toe around to a square position -
to overcome toe drag - when the face width is less than 100 mm's.
- The face is 55 mm's high - moderately deep. Players should make sure they use tees at least 2 & 3/4"
high for best performance both in terms of distance as well as accuracy.
- This design was specifically created to help those with the problems outlined above.
Price ea. $95.00, with Rapid Fire graphite shaft -
Delivery - 3 to 6 business days
>- M.P.O. Driver 12 deg., 17-4 stainless steel, w/ Rapid Fire graphite shaft RH
This is made with a double rail on the sole to lower the center of mass of the head and make it easier to get a higher ball flight. the rail, and the little step on the rear of the sole, are to prevent scuffing during the downswing. This is an easy to use driver, made for those with slower swing speeds, so that they can increase their ball carry and overall distance. It will fit with any of the fairway woods listed.
- Delivery - 3 to 5 business days
Utility Woods - Fairway Woods
- Synch*ron II fairway woods - 17-4 stainless steel, low profile w/ Rapid Fire graphite shaft RH & LH
These fairway woods have a shallow face and a low center of gravity to get the ball in the air rapidly. They have a two rail bottom to part the grass in rough and to handle difficult lies. All have a face height, from sole to the head top, less than the diameter of a ball. The lofts are generous. These are particularly useful for those players who have difficulty with their long irons and need a substitute that they can hit.
- Price ea. - $49.00 - 16 deg, w/ Rapid Fire graphite shaft, 3 wood RH
- Price ea. - $49.00 - 19 deg. w/ Rapid Fire graphite shaft, 5 wood = 2 iron RH

strength. There are two rails on the sole to aid in getting out of rough and bad lies. The faces are shallow,
conforming to our standard for designs that get the ball airborne quickly and easily.
 
- These are a favorite of low handicappers and long hitters, who tend to get more distance
from these designs than with 17-4 stainless steel heads.

- Many players have successfully solved their difficulties using long irons by replacing them with
either fairway woods or hybrid irons. Both are good solutions.
-These clubs are another possible solution. In reality they are mini woods that
are powered by wood graphite shafts.( Wood shafts have 0.335" tips and are more flexible than iron shafts
which have larger 0.370" tips ).
-Each head is just 32 mm's high - much less than the ball - to provide lift.
-The soles have two parallel rails to aid in bad lies.
The standard lengths are longer than irons but shorter than normal fairway woods.
16 deg. hybrid to replace the 1 and 2 irons - 42.5"
20 deg. hybrid to replace the 3 iron - 41.5"
24 deg. hybrid to replace the 4 iron - 41.0"
28 deg. hybrid to replace the 5 iron - 40.5"
32 deg. hybrid to replace the 6 iron - 40.0"
- Virtually all players should find these Recovery Hybrids hit the ball farther than either
standard or hybrid irons, especially so with the Rapid Fire shafts used.
Price ea. - 16 deg. Recovery Hybrid - $48.00
Price ea. - 20 deg. Recovery Hybrid - $48.00
