Progress BB4 Fairway Wood
Introducing the Progress BB4 Fairway wood! The BB4 Fairway wood shares the same bellows sole design taken from the highly successful BB4 Driver for maximizing the repulsive energy upon impact. By strategically placing ultra light weight Titanium material and high strength maraging steel material, they were able to optimize the CG location to make the head easy to launch from any turf condition.
Many BB4 owners have been long waiting for a release of a matching fairway wood. Finally it is here!
Light weight 8-1-1 Titanium is used for the face and crown and 450 maraging steel is used on the sole as well as the perimeter to create an ideal low and deep CG along with a relatively large CG angle. By using a more dense maraging steel on the perimeter, they were able to achieve a high MOI of 3300 (3250 for the #5) which helps with keeping the head stable through the impact. The Titanium material used for the crown is especially made thin closer to the face. This makes the crown flex more at impact which helps the head produce high energy impact resulting in high initial ball speeds.
In addition to the excellent fundamental design of the head, this fairway wood features an eight position adjustable hosel to allow players to fine tune the trajectory to match their desired ball flights. The head is also equipped with two replaceable weight screws for adjusting bias as well as overall head weight and swing weight. Available weights range from 2 to 6g in 2g increments.
