Fairway woods

How to find the perfect fairway wood – tips for all skill levels

Fairway woods are essential for precise shots from the fairway or long distances off the tee. Whether you're a beginner looking for support with your shots or an advanced player seeking maximum control, choosing the right fairway wood is crucial. In our golf shop in Münster, you'll find a wide selection of new and used fairway woods to suit every skill level.

1. Loft – Combining precision and distance

The loft of a fairway wood determines how high and far the ball flies:

  • 3-wood (15°–18°): Offers greater distances and is ideal for long shots from the tee or fairway.
  • 5-wood (19°–22°): An ideal choice for players who prefer shorter, controlled shots.
  • 7- and 9-woods: Perfect for shorter distances and players who want a higher ball trajectory.

Our golf shop in Münster allows you to test different lofts directly – even with used golf clubs.

2. Shaft flex – Optimal support for the swing

The correct shaft flex ensures optimal control and distance:

  • Regular: The ideal choice for players with medium swing speed.
  • Stiff: Perfect for fast swings and low ball trajectories.
  • Senior or Ladies: Offer additional flexibility and allow for higher ball speed.

3. Clubhead design – forgiveness or control?

The design of the racket head has a major impact on your game:

  • Wider clubheads: Offer more forgiveness and are ideal for beginners.
  • More compact racket heads: For advanced players seeking more control and precision.

Even used fairway woods from well-known brands like Callaway, TaylorMade or Ping offer state-of-the-art technology.

4. Adjustable technologies – tailor-made flexibility

Many fairway woods have adjustable features:

  • Loft setting: Allows you to adjust the loft to different game situations.
  • Weight shift: Adjust the weight for draws, fades, or a neutral flight path.

You'll find these features not only on new fairway woods, but also on used ones in our shop in Münster.

5. New or used – which is a better fit?

Used golf clubs are often an excellent option for players seeking quality at an attractive price. In our golf shop, we offer carefully inspected, used fairway woods that play like new but are significantly cheaper.

6. Testing and Fitting – The Key to the Right Choice

A fitting is essential to find the fairway wood that perfectly suits your swing. In our golf shop in Münster, we analyze your swing and recommend the optimal club for you – whether new or used.
