TAYLORMADE QI10 GOLF FAIRWAYS

Yes, the Qi10 Fairways are a great choice for beginners who want to feel confident in the clubs they’re using.

This is because these fairways are specifically crafted with forgiveness and easy launch in mind. The clubs have a very low centre of gravity, so the wood is more adept at getting under the ball to lift it into the air effectively every time.

Add the fact that it’s resistant to twisting on off-centre hits, and you’ve got a fairway wood that’s a joy to use - especially if you’re just starting out and need to refine your technique.

Technically, you can carry as many Qi10 Fairways as you like, but most golfers opt to carry either a 3-wood or a 5-wood in their bag. They also commonly carry both.

A 3-wood is an excellent tool to offer considerable distance on your approach to the green, with yardages easily reaching above 200 yards in the right hands. The 5-wood, on the other hand, won’t get you as far, but it is slightly easier to hit and will produce a higher launch thanks to the higher loft, which can be handy in certain situations or lies.

As a rule of thumb, we’d recommend having both a Qi10 5-wood and 3-wood in your bag for the best results.

Yes, several prominent names have used TaylorMade Qi10 Fairway Woods in the past during major games en route to the green.

Rory McIlroy, Scottie Scheffler and Tiger Woods have all used Qi10 3-woods or 5-woods, or both!

So, if you’re looking for a new fairway wood that’s good enough for the biggest names in the sport, you won’t go wrong with the Qi10.

Think of a fairway wood as a miniaturised driver that’s built to help you lift the ball off the fairway while still enjoying considerable distance.

A hybrid, on the other hand, is closer to a combination of a fairway wood and a longer iron. They have smaller heads than fairway woods, but are still designed to get the ball into the air from the fairway, or even more precarious lies - hence the nickname “rescue clubs”.

They may be relatively similar distance-wise, but it’s a good strategy to have both clubs in your bag, so you can deal with any situation the course throws at you.
