Henrik Stenson's 3 Wood


Recommended Posts

I think it's really interesting (and kinda cool), that with all the new technology and the endless amount of free equipment these guys get, that Henrik is still using a 3 wood from 2011 you can get on Ebay for about 30 bucks (expensive shaft not included, but you get the idea).

Grafalloy Blue is a very inexpensive shaft, can get on eBay for a couple shekels.

But to your point it's neat to see and proves that it's usually the Indian not the arrow.

That's the rerelease. It's white instead of blue in color but I think the bend profile is the same. 

 

This was one of the original low/low graphite shafts back in the day.

Didn't Robin design this one?

Driver: Taylor Made Stealth 2 10.5 Diamana S plus 60  R flex   - 44.25 

Fairways:  Ping G410 5, 7, 9 wood  Alta CB red 65 R flex

Hybrid:  Ping G410  26 degree  Alta CB Red 70 R flex 

Irons: Ping G430  7-PW, 45, 50 Alta CB black 65 soft R flex 

Wedges:  Ping 195 S54, E58

Wedges and irons are - 1/2” and one degree flat 

Putter: Sacks Parente Duke 32.5”

Ball: Titleist Pro VI or Callaway Chrome Soft X ls

 

While not at the same time I was fit for every club in my bag as well as the Pro VI ball. I use the chrome soft x ls on my league course.  It has much softer softer greens than the club that I belong to. 

I’m on a mission to shoot my age - lifetime lowest round is 66 and I’m currently 67.

A bit like TM V steel fairways, I think there were a couple still being played on tour in the last few years. I waited years before I got one on eBay.

 

I don't feel so bad about my 2008 fairwaysnow, but I might have to upgrade to 2011 if it means I can hit it like Stenson.

They're reluctant to change because they trust their equipment: Charl Schwartzel has been seen with a Nike VR Limited 5 wood, Spencer Levin was using TM R9 TP irons at the 2016 The Players, Ryan Palmer used a R9 5 wood up until the R15 replaced it. They use what they feel comfortable with, which I think is really cool.

 

It really is neat seeing old clubs in the bag of tour pros, considering they have EVERYTHING at their disposal.

You should see the Champions Tour bags........a lot of them are gaming clubs that are 4 - 5 years old.  I remember noticing that when I used to marshall at the Outback Pro Am.

I still remember it took a few years for DJ to change from his trusted R9 woods. He bombed those things. Too bad he couldn't putt with them or else he would have a couple more majors

I was playing with a guy who's got one of those Diablo fairway woods, and he spent the first few holes bragging about it. Unfortunately for him, he couldn't stop topping the damn thing.

Look at Bernhard Langer the long irons he still carries 1999 Hogan Apex 3 thru 5 iron and I mean real Hogan irons not Callaway or the "new" Hogan /Skor stuff------- with lots of lead tape I might add  ^_^

Driver ---- Callaway Big Bertha Alpha Speeder 565 R flex- - 7W TM V-Steel UST Pro Force Gold 65R---- Irons 5 thru PW 1980 Macgregor VIP Hogan Apex steel shafts--- SW -- Cleveland 588 56* S-400 Sensicore --- LW Vokey 58* SM5 L grind--- Putter 1997 Scotty Cameron Santa Fe Fluted Bulls Eye shaft--- Bag TM Flex Lite Stand---- Yeah I know only 11 clubs

That shaft was also very lethal in the Titleist 905 drivers too!!!  For some reason that was a good combo for a lot of folks still is. Some guys are still playing that combo maybe not on tour but you know what I mean

Funny you mentioned the V-Steels I have 3 of them including a rare 9 wood (24*) I actually went to a TM demo a couple of years ago with a friend when they had the Rocket balls thing going I hit my old V-Steel 7 wood better than anything they offered at the time. This one guy with TM mentioned he did not know TM ever made that (he was real wet behind the ears) The older rep grinned and whispered those are some of the best woods they ever made wish they still made them. He also told the kid you would not believe how many of those are still in Tour bags especially the senior tour

You know I am gaming that old Adams GT Tight Lies 18* 5 wood. It is absolutely the ugliest club since the Cleveland VAS but I love that thing. I ended up with it on a bulk buy my partner made. It was actually in pristine shape. Dead stock. We were messing around on the range and I hit it WOW. put it in the bag hits better than my beloved V-Steel 5 wood.    It will not be in the bag today how ever i am playing for fun with a buddy of mine and it is experimental and fun day. I have one of my old Macgregor persimmon Custom 4 woods in the bag with a x-100 steel shaft. funny it is almost the same loft as the 5 wood just 1* stronger. I can still hit it believe it or not. funny thing is that the size of the head is like a modern hybrid in fact I have a leather hybrid cover on it

I'm just wondering if Callaway resurrecting the Steelhead name isn't a slight homage to Henrick.  It's smart marketing to bring back a classic name and retro look IMO.

But isn't stenson gaming a Diablo and not a "steelhead"?

Henrik is using a Diable Octane Tour 13 degree. It is most definitely not Steelhead.

I think every golfer is. You find a 3 wood that works you'd have to pry it out of their cold dead hands. I still have an original Big Bertha S2H2 in my bag.

Yes I know that its the diablo and not the steelhead that Stenson games - that's why I wrote "slight" homage.  Slight as in retro if not the same make.

I finally found one on eBay... Octane Tour 15° and it should be here in a couple of weeks. I get notifications from eBay whenever one is listed. The last two months it's been nothing but LH clubs. We'll see how it works, should have no problem selling it if I don't like it.

 

I still have a Callaway Big Bertha in my bag, many a 3 Wood has tried to take it's place. Lets see what all the fuss is about.
