TaylorMade 580 3W Stiff Graphite Shaft Golf Fairway Woods - Reviews

On 2003-05-18, Jeff Wood rated this TaylorMade 580 3W Stiff Graphite Shaft a 5...(1342)



Purchase: After test hitting most of the high end product available, I purchased the club from Golf Town / Edmonton, Canada, for $479 Canadian dollars. I was looking for a club that would add some consistent and reliable distance to my fairway game, and also provide me with tee ball options for tight par fours and fives.
Pros: I was looking for a club that could provide me with at least 225 yards off the grass, and it certainly does that and more. Off the screws I am flying it 225+ yards on a very regular basis. It is a very exciting golf club. It is like no other that I have played. It is both energetic and extremely solid at impact. The ball jumps off the face, with a uniquely soft feel that is transmitted through the shaft and into your hands. It is also very forgiving off the heel and toe.
Cons: The grip. But it is no big deal. I have large hands, and change out all of my grips to a soft mid size at point of purchase. Having said that, I do wish club manufacturers would supply a better grip for no other reason than the testing process. What you do with it beyond that is your personal preference. I found this one, like most stock grips on upper end clubs, to be a little small and hard.
Quality: The club is very nicely finnished, and upon close inspection is a real quality piece. It's big head sets up nice, - slightly closed. It has given me a new found confidence.

Review Summary: Congratulations Taylor Made. I had no idea that this technology was available. It is the best golf purchase I have ever made. Two of my golfing buddies have now gone out and made the same purchase. I love to put it in my hands and pull the trigger.
