– The Acer XS Titanium Fairway Woods are all about pushing the design envelope further than ever before. Instead of replacing a stainless steel face with a thin sheet of lightweight titanium, Hireko has made the whole head entirely out of titanium to experience the same benefits of a modern titanium driver. Why don’t you see more titanium fairway woods? Unfortunately the answer is cost.
Secondly, titanium is used for weight savings for large heads and fairways aren’t exactly large to begin with. In fact, the shell of the Acer XS Titanium 3 wood head weighed only a mere 130g or 80g lighter than a standard model. Therefore it required an addition of 80g of weight secured onto the sole to bring the club back up to weight or in essence concentrating an amazing 71% of the entire head’s weight just into the sole plate. Compare that to a standard stainless steel fairway sole which may only be 25% of the total head weight. Imagine all this much weight in such a confined space as it will assuredly create a fairway wood with an ultra-low center of gravity. Therefore the lofts were strengthened to normalize trajectory and we were still able to create a club that will get the ball airborne easily. That is only part of the reason you will experience more distance.
Don’t forget why we use titanium for drivers — distance! These titanium fairway woods are easily our longest. While the stronger lofts help, it is the ultrathin high rebound face that makes the ball come off of the face just as hot and explosive as a driver. Hit the ball higher, hit the ball straighter and hit the ball further with no additional effort with the Acer XS Titanium Fairway Woods.
