    Need a high launch 3 wood

    I am looking for something to improve my wood shots off the deck and off the tee, and I have tried lots of 3 woods, and several hybrids.

    My biggest issue it that my launch angle is way too low.

    Looking for recommendations for a 3 wood that is good off the deck (#1) and good off the occasional tee.

    Don't bother with a 3W, look for a 4W. Something with around 16* of loft.
    Not fat anymore. Need to get better at golf now!

    I was experiencing similar wows with my trajectory. I decided to try the Wishon 915 HL heads.Paired up a 5w with an Interflexx HL shaft. I never hit a 5W that high and far before and this thing measured in at 17*, a 4W loft. Put the 3W together, 14* loft, same results, a beautiful trajectory never seen before with a 3W. These heads have a very slight offset that positions the CG that much further away from the face and with the added tip soft shaft gave me a quite acceptable result, even with the stonger than normal lofts.

    Not to say that this will work for you. Let me know if you would like to try this combination some time.

    If it is amazing why would you want to part from it

    I used to have a Ping I3 5 wood(which was actually a 4 wood at 17 degrees) That thing was a cannon. To this day I regret getting rid of it.

    Is it a 15N (neutral) or a draw bias?

    Maybe but 3 degrees makes a big difference especially if like you say you are having trouble getting a higher trajectory.
