Over the past decade, fairway woods have transformed as companies add more and more driver-style technologies to clubs that used to have a reputation for being tough to hit. Many fairway woods now feature multi-material construction and can create so much ball speed that elite golfers are using higher-lofted models. On the PGA Tour, many players used to carry a 15-degree 3-wood and a 19-degree 5-wood, but now there are plenty of golfers who split the difference and take a 16.5-degree club instead. At the same time, 7-woods have gained popularity because they are so easy to hit, launching the ball high and bringing it down softly on the greens.
For 2022, Callaway added several technologies to its new Rogue ST fairway wood family and modified others to create an arsenal of clubs designed to hit the ball straighter and farther off the tee and from the turf.
