On 2005-07-19, Mr_Divots rated this Ben Hogan C 455 3 Wood Aldila NV70-H stiff a 5...(5879)



Purchase: Purchased used off Ebay auction through 3balls.com for $81 delievered. I was so pleased with Hogan's CS-3 "Draw" driver, I wanted the 3 wood to go with it.
Pros: The carpenter steel face of this club is very hot. Resonates with a light "ping" at impact and you can really feel the ball jump off the face. It is forgiving on heel and toe hits. The proprietary Aldila NV70-H shaft works well. It has a softer tip than an aftermarket NV shaft according to my contact with Ben Hogan, so the ball flight is a little higher than the regular NV and it lively and responsive. The torque rating is 4.0º according to Hogan, which is also higher than an aftermarket NV, but it helps to close the face at impact effectively. The swing weight feels heavy, perhaps a D4, (haven't had it measured.) I have another 3 wood that is D2, and this one definitely feels heavier, which is a good feeling when digging out from rough. Works great off the tee and off the deck. Compares very favorably to a Taylor Made V-steel, but the stock shaft of the Hogan is MUCH better, having previously owned a V-steel myself.
Cons: The headcover is poor. That's it. The rest is pure class and performs admirably.
Quality: Very good. You can really feel how hot the face is on this club, and the muted grey head color with Hogan alignment aid on the crown is classy and understated.

Review Summary: This club may be overlooked when searching for a new fairway wood, but put it on your demo list. Very hot face. Forgiving. Accurate. These are priced a little less than some of the competition, but the performance is excellent. Hogan is coming out with some really good products now at a very attractive price point. Check 'em out!
