Feel Hyper Review:

Accuracy

Less-Avg-More
  
The Feel Hyper Steel Fairway woods offer above average accuracy. The ball jumps off the face minimizing accuracy loss on shots hit towards the heel or toe.
Distance

Short-Avg-Long
  
We found the these woods to be as long as any we have tested to date. The 3 wood easily outdistanced our comparison clubs. This is, in part, due to the fact that our comparison clubs have steel shafts and the Feel woods are graphite at 44". The extra length will require some adjustment prior to putting in play.
Trajectory

Low-Avg-High
  
The entire set of fairway woods hit the ball with a higher than average trajectory. This is especially true of the 7 and 9 woods, both of which provide a ball flight that is especially effective on long apporach shots.
Feel


Less-Avg-More

  

Very nice feedback to the hands with impact providing a confident solid sounding "ting". The sound and feel is very similar to that of the Sonartec fairway woods.

Forgiveness

Less-Avg-More
  

These woods are very forgiving with minimal distance loss on off center hits. The 5, 7, and 9 woods are very easy to hit.

Looks
The Feel fairway woods feature a dark charcoal finish and blue shaft. The heads feature raised alignment aids on the crown similar to the TaylorMade 300 Series drivers. The clubs also feature a raised "bullet" shaped sole with the new Feel logo, club number, and loft. The workmanship of the club is good with simple graphics although we prefer for the shaft graphics to be located down for a cleaner look.


Summary:
The Feel Hyper Steel Fairway woods receive high marks for distance and forgiveness. As with other Feel products we have tested, we would have no problem putting these in play tomorrow in a tournament round. It is so easy to get the ball up in the air with these woods and yet not sacrifice any distance. The 7 and 9 woods are particularly easy to hit and align, perfect replacements for long irons. The Feel Hyper Steel Fairway woods will appeal to golfers of all levels that are looking for a fairway wood or set of fairway woods that are long and easy to hit.
