About this product
The TaylorMade V-Steel Fairway 5 Wood is a right-handed men's club with a stainless steel head, 18 degrees loft, and a stiff flex steel shaft, measuring 42.5 inches. This fairway wood is designed for distance and control from the fairway or tee. The V-Steel model is known for its versatility, and the steel shaft provides a solid feel. It is a 5-wood, a club for long approach shots.
Our take
For golfers who prioritize a classic fairway wood with a steel shaft, this TaylorMade V-Steel 5 wood is a compelling choice. The 18-degree loft is ideal for players seeking a lower, penetrating ball flight, and the stiff flex steel shaft offers stability for controlled swings. The 42.5-inch length is standard, and the stainless steel head provides durability. However, the stiff flex may be too demanding for slower swing speeds, and the steel shaft is heavier than graphite, which could reduce swing speed for some. This club suits better players who prefer a traditional feel and are willing to pay a premium for a new, U.S.-made club. It's not ideal for beginners or those needing a more forgiving, higher-launching wood.
