Best fairway woods 2022: Winners

Longest

Perhaps not the most important category given a fairway wood is generally a gap filler and you want it to play shorter than your driver. The Callaway Rogue ST Max, Titleist TSi3 and TaylorMade Stealth Plus were all equally impressive here.

Most forgiving

It Cleveland Launcher XL undoubtable had the smallest dispersion in the test, while it is no surprise to see Ping also performed well here. The Callaway Rogue ST Max also impressed in this category.

Most draw bias

If you’re after something that tames your slice, the straight-flight technology in Ping’s G425 SFT is the best we have tested. This was closely followed by the Wilson Launch Pad and the TaylorMade Stealth.

Best feeling

Feel is always going to be subjective. The Titleist TSi3 has that classic soft player feel to it, but Callaway’s Rogue ST Max and the Cobra LTDx just feel so solid. Make sure you find a club you’re happy hitting.

Best looking

I love a classic looking wood and the simple gloss finish of the Titleist and Honma stole the show for me here. I was surprised by how much I liked the styling of the Cobra LTDx, but the compact shaping of the TSi3 edges it.

Best Value for money

It’s always hard to beat Wilson when it comes to value for money. They are constantly raising the bar when it comes to top-level performance without increasing their price tags. Perfect for those on a budget.
