I love this club and often use it instead of my driver, especially in high wind conditions. Ball flight is nice and low with excellent roll. You can hit with this club equally well off a (low) tee or the ground, and I frequently use it in place of a long iron, even if i'm in light rough. Very pleased with the performance, very pleased with the price, could not ask for more.

15deg loft, standard fujikara reg shaft.
The grip was great to hold(wish I could get some more of them), but it wasnt fixed far enough down the shaft and the butt wobbled.
Things I like:
It sits perfectly square at address
Ball flies off clubface
No draw or fade bias, easy to work either way.
Great for tight lies with low centre of gravity club head.
Much longer than anything else Ive tried. Often off a tight lie it comes out low and hard and I get 250m out of it which is better than I can do with the driver off the tee.
I havent been able to achieve the same results off the tee, even with it teed at grass height and it will stay in the air a lot longer if hit higher up the club face.
Everyone who has have a hit of it loves it, what more is there to say.

I carry 2 of the NVG MacTec NVG 3 woods. One is the strong 3 wood - 12.5 stiff flex and the other is the 16 degree stiff flex, which I use as a 4 wood.
Both clubs inspire confidence at address, I'm one of those that favour a small head on a fair way wood, I tend to hit sweeping shots and the smaller head and face ensures I can middle them and get the ball up in the air.
The 12.5 has a lower ball flight off the deck but the run is fantastic, while the 16 has a higher launch flight and enables more air time with less roll. There is only 10 - 15 yards or so in the total distance with both clubs, the main difference being the flight and trajectory of the ball.
I got both clubs off ebay for less than 50 dollars each and they out perform any other wood I've used.
Reading some of the reviews - you must breed big hitters in the USA. I play off 12 and no way can I carry either of these clubs 200 plus yards from the deck. That would be my maximum distance including roll.
Anyway - super clubs and I'm confident I#ll be off single figures by the end of this season.

I have the stiff flex 15 degree 3 wood and the regular flex 19 degree 5 wood. This were the options left in the shop. (I actually preferred the stiff flex 3 wood for a second driver.)

3 wood review: This is the right mix of shape and size to do both jobs of fairway wood and driver substitute. It went miles off the tee with controlled draw and would have beaten my old callaway 454 reg shaft 10 degrees. The fairway aspect is commendable and easier to use than my king cobra (large mini driver shaped head) The only reason why I haven't used it more often is because of the 5 wood being soo long and easy to hit.

5 wood review: regular shaft makes this easier to hit than any hybrid I have used below 20 degrees loft from fairway or rough. Haven't hit a 5 wood for a while after most golf magazines were saying hybrids were the way to go. To all high mid handicappers: hybrids aren't. If your course is long and has fairway width of at least 30m I would go for the 5wd. The 5 wood is easier to hit with the same swing and you can either take a divot or sweep it off the fairway. Besides at a high handicap, a 3 iron/hybrid equivalent on a tight fairway situation is only marginally better and if you have trouble controlling either (ie level of your handicap) you should be scaling your club well down to lay up.

Since using these woods I have birdied as many par5s as bogeyed or worse. The successful sequence: driver-wood-chip...

Put it like this:- How many bogey players can hit those greens at 180+ yds consistently with hybrid OR three iron? Is it better to get near the front or go back where most greens aren't guarded? Can the same player hit a 3 wood to get near a par 5 in two? in that situation would you go long with 5 wood or accurate with hybrid? So just how long AND accurate are you with a hybrid at 17-19 degree loft? Which club is TIGER using?

Nevada Bob's Belfast was doing a great deal for 50 pounds a wood on these clubs. I had read great reviews on this site and in magazines when they came out and thought I would go for it. I was not offered their driving range distance/flightscope facility but these were easy to hit and I could feel it slinging off the clubface. Again the cautionary warning about using a stiffer shaft on the three wood, but it worked out well. It can be a bit unnerving if you are newbie but if you know your specs, its best to stick with them rather than regret later.

This deal made them as cheap if not cheaper than most of the other clubs mentioned in this review. For a hundred pound I revitalised my long game.

STRONG word of warning: I found the grip to be loose and making a click with the torque I was producing with my grip on my downswing. I have found this on the 3 and 5 wood I eventually bought, along with a driver I test drove last year. Curiously I have never found this on any other club brand. The guys at Nevada Bob kindly changed the grip for me for free (Golf Pride). Thus the value rating didn't suffer.

OHHHHHHHHH BABYYYY!! This club is absolutely ridic! I can hit it from the tee, the fairway, probably off of a ruf. I am empowered by the dominance of this club. I am now easily hitting it almost 300 with the the iron. Welcome PGA, look for Nob Santiago.

My wood is 15 degrees loft and is fitted with a regular flex Fujikura Triple Action Shaft. This is a "first impressions" review based on 2 hours of range testing off a mat that was in very good condition with quality 2 piece Srixon practice balls. I bought this wood because of their reputation for easy launching. I was not disappointed. It was very easy to hit launch off what could be considered a tight lie. My club has a draw bias and I found that it straighted out the fade I get when playing a fairway wood off the deck. As the face is so shallow and the rubber tee pegs at my driving range are quite tall I did not want to risk damaging the crown by skying it. Off the deck the trajectory was penetrating with no hit of ballooning. Previous reviewers have suggested that this shaft plays softer than its stated flex. This is not my experience based on hitting 200 balls. I have a driver swing speed of about 90 mph and and I neither hit it too high or hook it left.

Initial impressions are favourable and I am confident this will be a useful addition to my bag. It is certainly easier to hit than my Sonartec NP99 15 degree and my Macgregor eyeomatic 13.5 degree (tees only with that one)

Just picked this up on Ebay for $50, like new... with V2 S flex shaft. This is the best 3 wood I have hit, in terms of accuracy, length, ease of play. A great alternative off the tee on those short or narrow par 4's. A great stick at a steal of a price!

Most everything. Cobra SZ is the stick this replaced. Sonartec is also nice, but not as easy to control.

the very deepest fairway wood i've ever hit in my life. The design of the club is extremely similar to the tour edge exotics fairway woods which claim to be the longest fairway woods ever made. Ive never hit those woods because they're extremely over-priced, and i cant see how they could build a club that hits the ball farther than this. I hit the 3 wood a couple times and i hit it about 250. my average solid drive goes about 275, so its a great club to have when you need acuracy and distance. Love the Club!

MacGregor has engineered a gem of a fairway wood(s). I made the change this summer and have had very favorable results. The "cup face" is not a gimmick; really does expand the sweet spot. The club has a very shallow face, much like an Adams "rescue" type, so if you tee it up make sure that it's low. Out of clean lie in the fairway, it turns into a cannon. Nice impact sound too! The best feature is that you can actually work the ball, and it has forgiveness unless you hit too high on the ball. I love the 3Wood so much, I ditched by 3-iron for the 9W. I'm over 45,and just can't hit long irons like the "old days," so why fight it? The 9W produces a nice flight with enough spin to hold even the hardest summer greens. 3W goes around 225 - 230 (with roll) on a normal fluid swing. The 9W (25 degrees) goes around 185 - 190 and lands soft as a feather. BTW, some of my younger golfing buddies laughed at the 9W until they tried it. Don't let pride get in the way. MacGregor also makes a 7W and 5W lofts. For the money, you will not be disappointed.
