What's a good fairway wood?

Or what kind of fairway woods do you have, use, and like, or suggest?

Thanks a lot.

Well now, that would largely depend on what kind of swing speed and spin numbers you're producing.

There's no point in having a shallow faced and long bodied 3 wood if you have lots of swing speed - the spin would simply kill it.

The problem is I don't know my swing speed or anything else like that.

Where can I find it out?

You can usually go see a clubfitter and they can put you on some gear to give you the numbers for a small fee (or sometimes even free). Don't trust the sims in the big golf stores.
