I found a bit of success today hitting 3 wood off the tee.
Some thoughts:
- With my more neutral grip I can aim basically at target and the ball should go slightly right to left if hit well
- Tee it pretty low, the main bad shot is hitting it fat
- It doesn't go as far as driver but it's also much more forgiving, there's less chance of being completely out of play
- Still hit driver when you're feeling confident, but maybe the stock club on par 4s and 5s should be the 3 wood
