Zero Tolerance Fairway Master 15*
Strength:
None
Weakness:
None Excellent club! has the ZT XLT-70 regular graphite shaft. Nice feel "0" offset swing weight at D4. This club has a deep face with a dual weight "sole" weighting system. Sets up well, and with an easy swing flies down the middle. Not a tinny sound nor a muffled sound (this newer edition does not have the foam fill) I''m not a long ball hitter but every shot was down the middle, about ten yards longer then my ZT Crown Jewel Fairway 3 wood. Interesting comparison. The Crown Jewel has a deeper face with a noticeable offset 0.5 closed. You can really notice the offset when eyeing the clubs side by side. The Fairway master has neglibible offset if any. The CJ has the ZT Power 65 regular Shaft and the CJ has a swingweight of a D8. Both shafts seem to give the same amount of feedback, and with their low torque, do not penalize you for the miss-hits. Because the of the CJ''s offset the ball seems to always want to fade, starts left then to center of the fairway. The Fairway master starts out straight and mainains the trajectory. It''s almost like I want to carry both clubs in my bag. The CJ for the thicker lies because of the deeper face and the Fairway master because of the straightness and smooth feel from the deck. Excellent Clubs for the value. Customer Service Excellent customer Service will answer any questions that you may have.

Very forgiving clubs and easy to hit. I had them built with the Pro Force 65 shafts and they were so nice. It may be even better if the sound can be crisper. Customer Service Great and prompt service from John, 2 thumbs up! Similar Products Used: Adams Tight Lies, Titleist 975F |

Incredible clubs. Handsome in a simple way. Very easy to hit. The Power 65 shaft is so stable that it invites you to go after your shots. And the distance is just remarkable. Best woods I've ever played. Similar Products Used: Name it: Adams, Callaway (War Bird, Steelhead), Orlimar, in particular. |

I have the 13 and 19 deg with PF 75 reg shafts. Great clubs - easy to hit solid and the ball goes amazingly straight - difficult to shape shots though. Similar Products Used: Adams Original Tight Lies. |

Fabulous fairway woods. If you like low profile woods you have to try these. I used ZT's Power 65 shaft and it was a perfect match for the head. The feel and balance were just right. These are very easy to hit and very long. They have replaced my Orlimar Plus woods, and that was a tough task given how well I like the Orlimar's. The Fairway Masters are a terrific FW at an unbeatable price. Customer Service ZT provides superb customer service. Similar Products Used: Orlimar Trimetals, Ping I3's, Titleist 975F |

Fairway Master 3 wood, 13 deg.
A very unassuming FW. The looks and sound of it would suggest someone not caring too much about impressing anyone. It's not ugly, just a little different (the head, front to back is longer than "normal"). The sound it makes is like hitting a metal cable. Similar Products Used: KZG, quadpro |

I purchased both the 13 and 16 degree. I have hit lots of fairway woods and was looking for a maraging club. I put grafalloy prolite stiff flex shafts in them. These clubs hit long and straight with very little effort. The ball rockets off the face. Needless to say I am very pleased with them. After playing them for a few weeks the first thing I did was call and asked if they made a driver. Similar Products Used: orlimar, trimax, super concorde, adams tight lies |

I wasn't sure whether or not to buy this club, but my current fairway woods were giving me trouble, so I figured, why not? Boy, am I glad I got this 3-wood equivalent! It's heft and shape inspires confidence. After I got used to the shallow face, I was drilling the ball 20 yards longer than I hit my Hawkeye 3 wood. In fact, I drove the ball through some greens because I wasn't used to hitting a 3 wood that far, especially off the deck. The trick with this club is to put a smooth swing on it and let the ball get in the way. The few times I over swung, the weight of the head pulled it inside and I hit off the toe. But when I swung 80% with good tempo, the ball shot off the club face with a low, boring trajectory. I suspect I will replace all my fairway woods with these clubs, they really are that good. Customer Service John at ZT Golf recommended the shaft for this club based on the specs I gave him, and fitted me very well.
