Question

What is the difference in a three wood and a five wood golf club?

Answer 1

Are you serious?

Answer 2

If you need to know the answer to this question then it doesn't matter what the difference is, you are going to hit both badly.

Answer 3

The loft would be the difference,  more loft in the 5 wood. so you would hit  further with the 3 wood.

But the 5 wood will be a little more forgiving and easier to hit.

Answer 4

5wood is a golof club to hit your hit with and a h five iron is to hit a golf ball r u stupid

Answer 5

pitch ,size and weight

Answer 6

Answer 7

The 3 wood usually has a loft of about 15* and the 5 wood is about 17* to 19*.  Most people carry a 3 wood, and some carry both.  I only carry a 3 wood.

Answer 8

The three wood and five wood are two completely different clubs. This is virtually the same as asking the difference between a three and five iron. The difference between these two clubs are weight, length and face angle. The three wood, designed for lower trajectory and longer ball distance, has a longer shaft, is heavier and has a more closed face to increase torque and momentum during the golf swing. Not only do shots with this club travel far airbone, they also have quite a bit of roll. A five wood, however, is lighter, has a more open face angle, and is a shorter club. This is designed to hit shorter shots, often used by players who have difficulties hitting the three or four irons. For the average player, the three wood is a much more standard club, and it is rare to see someone using a five wood.

Answer 9

a 3 wood will give you more distance and less height and a 5 wood will give you more height and less distance goodluck with your golf

Answer 10

a five wood will have anywhere from 2-6 degrees more loft then a three wood. a five will have a smaller head with a shorter shaft. will go shorter due to club length and degree change. ball will have more backspin. club will have more wieght in the sole.

Answer 11

the difference between 3  &  5  is  2

  even a 5 year old child could work that one out

                              tutt   tutt   tutt

                                      or should I say

                                            putt   putt  putt

Answer 12

Hi, a 3 wood has a longer shaft with around 13-16 degrees of loft, you will hit this further than a 5 wood but with less consistency.

A 5 wood has between 17-20 degrees of loft and has a shorter shaft. You will hit this slightly straighter than a 3 wood, but with less less distance. Hope this helps

Answer 13

a 5 wood gives you a higher ball flight than a 3 wood and is also pretty hand when getting you out of the first couple of cuts of rough and getting you back into play! i would never use a 3 wood anywhere else apart from the fairway or off the tee! happy hackin!

Answer 14

More loft on a 5 wood and thus you would be hitting higher shots. A 5 wood should be easier to hit off the fairway.
