Many golfers would have the 3 wood as the hardest club in the bag to use as it’s very often the longest and lowest lofted club that we have to hit from the fairway.
If you are struggling with this club like many other make 1 change and start crushing your 3 wood, and the best part, its a simple change too
In this video I share some trackman numbers and some easy to follow concepts that can be a game changer when hitting fairway woods

Seems like a lot of work to talk with that accent
One simple change but it’s a 10 minute video
Great lesson, thanks!
Thanks for your tips. I will definitely give a try.
Great video. So you should look a club head distance ahead of the ball whether you are hitting from a T or turf ?
Great vid & did the green keeper survive your shot 😂
FINALLY!!! I have watched hundreds of instructional videos before… yours have been the best by FAR. Clear, precise & to the point. Brilliant!! 🍺🍺
I wish you would do some slow motion swings in your videos
or crushing the ball into the man mowing the grass lol
The 3 wood can be such a hard club to hit. So much club that can get away from you with one wrong move. I tend to choke up on it, just try to swing more vertically on it than sweep it away, and then stay down through impact – and pray.
Chris loved watching the 3 wood video again. I’m a high handicaper and You’ve helped me shave 10 strokes off my game. I’ve never watched you hitting a driver. Only watched wedge an iron videos.
Fucking awesome!!! It works!!!!!’n
I’ll practice this tip fur sure. Thank you! 😎
This promotes more consistency for sure.. Definitely gotta try these methods! Btw some tips to share: To adapt my setup and swing to the hills and lies on the course I do the following: 1. Determine where my club head bottoms out. 2. Where is the ball position perpendicular to my target line and body. The bill of hat, the 45 degree turn of my hip and how everything fits balanced as references 3. Rotate my body with minimum shift. 4. I create different angles in my backswing to deliver the club back and control trajectory & 5. I establish 3 progressively faster baseline tempos for set distance ranges.. effortless, more speed & full swing!
Oh I absolutely CRUSHED my 3W the other day. The head is 80yds down range. Still see it every day I go 🤣
If only everyone were that flexible. Beautiful swing.
Great video. Probably the best I have seen. I love the explanation of the club face and the purpose of the swing. Probably common sense to others but it really clarified to me how I want to hit the shot. I have struggling with this club for a long time and now I am a lot closer to hitting better shots with this club
Explained it very well and it worked for me my 3 wood is back in the bag 👍
Thanks very much Chris. Now I know why I'm so inconsistent with my woods. Great lesson. 😊
Great video shame about the 4 set of ads though!
Hello from Arizona. I just found your channel. You’re great. You have helped with driver. I have never been hitting so good. The fairway woods helps. Thank you Sir 👊🏼👍
Thank you. I will be trying this tomorrow.
is it correct to say that the same applies to hybrids?
Best 3-wood video I have seen on Youtube. Strongly recommend.
Great informative video. Like it very much but the best part is your beautiful smooth and easy swing. It’s gorgeous
what you describe is ok with a flat lie but a flat lie is 30% of the time
Excellent lesson and tips Chris. Will try it tomorrow during practice. Cheers from Hull, Massachusetts
I can't hit mine off a tee ,even a long par 3 deck
Guys This works well
Chris, beginner here, can you use this drill with hybrids as well?
Thanks Chris, I no longer worry whether I’ll top this shot. I’ve happily put my three wood back in my bag. Great clear and concise instruction.👏👏👏
This is exactly what I do and it works great! When using Driver I put the tee behind the ball in order to hit up on the ball. It absolutely works for me.
Great lesson Chris, does the same ally for a 5 & 7 wood ?
💯 Nailed it
"…effectively, we need it about two balls – <pause, try not to laugh> – inside that heel…"
🤣
Boy that makes great sense. Should I use the same technique for my 4-6 woods? I’m a 79 yr old senior.
I have just recently took up golfing and Chris your videos have helped so much!!! I am no means any good yet but the effort is there lol ty sir for what you do
