No other group of golfers in the world tests golf clubs as frequently or as extensively, nor is armed with such in-depth information about the latest technology.

Best fairway wood of 2025: The top 5

5. Titleist GT3: 5.41%

Titleist’s pitch: “Titleist GT3 Fairways deliver the ultimate balance of flight control and speed through dynamic adjustability. Advanced face and crown construction packs impressive power into GT3 while enhanced adjustability delivers complete precision-tuned performance.”

You can see our launch piece here. Shop the Titleist GT3 here.

4. Callaway Elyte Titanium: 7.37%

Callaway’s pitch: “For the golfer looking for maximum speed, forgiveness, and adjustability, the Elyte Titanium fairway wood utilizes advanced materials to amplify performance.”

3. Titleist GT2: 15.23%

Titleist’s pitch: “Experience higher-flying distance from the tee and off the deck. The Titleist GT2 Fairways feature a deeper, more forward CG along with a new forged face and proprietary crown to improve launch, spin, and forgiveness from any lie.”

2. TaylorMade Qi35: 15.48%

TaylorMade’s pitch: “Qi35 fairway woods are designed for the widest array of golfers. Their shallower profile allows golfers to experience distance while the overall shape provides versatility from the tee and off the deck.”

1. Ping G440 Max: 23.34%

Ping’s pitch: “The Max model is available in five lofts, including a new 4-wood, to provide more gapping solutions. The face is taller for confidence off the tee while maintaining a CG location that delivers high-launching performance off the ground. A Free Hosel and Carbonfly Wrap lower the CG, increase forgiveness and contribute to a more muted, pleasing sound at impact.”

Neal Shipley, AKA, the “Big Fridge’s,” custom stamping

Published

on

Neal Shipley was the first to admit that he enjoyed his food while in college. But since his days at Ohio State, he’s slimmed down and earned a PGA Tour Card.

That hasn’t stopped him from having fun with his wedge stampings, though it’s led to some misunderstandings.

On the 54 (degree), we have ‘Big Fudge,'” Shipley told GolfWRX. “It was supposed to be ‘Big Fridge,’ so this happened a little while ago. ‘Big Fridge’ was a nickname between my college teammates and I, with ‘fridge’ meaning stomach, a big stomach.

“We told the Ping guys to put … ‘Big Fridge’ on it, and I think maybe some bad cell service or something, and they thought I said ‘fudge,’ so they put fudge on it.”

On Shipley’s 50-degree he also continues the food theme, this time with his go-to order at the “Golden Arches,” and his stamping “DONS 7.”

“The number 7 meal, the two cheeseburger meal, that was my McDonald’s order, back when I would have McDonald’s frequently,” Shipley shared.

Check out Shipley’s full what’s in the bag and the rest of his wedge stampings here on “Inside the Ropes” from Colonial.
