Accuracy



The first and only 2 Wood specifically designed to maximize accuracy of the golf shot using a unique and effective alignment system. The level Top-Plan ensures the aim indicator is level to the ground, so it can be accurately aimed parallel to the target line. This level top-plane gives the golfer the advantage of triple accuracy of loft, lie, and direction.

Additionally, the flattened top widens the effective hitting area for greater forgiveness on off-center hits, giving you the most forgiveness and solid performance on all swings or hits that might not be your best.

Distance



The team of engineers at Thomas Golf have accomplished two breakthroughs of Wood design, making this Thomas Golf #2 Wood an absolute distance monster!

The outdated shape of other woods have a dome-shaped top, reminiscent of when they were actually made out of wood. A dome-shaped top will flex when the head makes contact with the ball, absorbing energy and power that should stay in the face, this is bad. Like a tennis racket, you want the strings to flex, not the frame. The strong Top-Plane of the Thomas #2 Wood eliminates unnecessary flex and keeps the energy in the clubface so it will be transferred to the ball, consistently sending your shot further.

The team of engineers have also worked hard to achieve a high coefficient of restitution (energy transfer to the ball, known as COR) by manipulating the precise balance between head volume, weight, and face thickness. What they have developed, test subjects call astonishing, saying that the ball “explodes off the face.” The hot, ultra-thin face creates a “spring-like” effect for explosive distance.

With its hot “spring effect” face and strong Top-Plane for reduced energy loss, the Thomas # 2 Wood offers golfers the opportunity to hit the longest and most enjoyable shots they have ever hit.

Shot distance is only valuable if it goes to the target. Surprisingly, more than 85% of golfers have chronic alignment and ball position problems. The classic case is the golfer who aligns to the right or left of the target, then pushes or pulls the ball to the target, thus creating a swing fault.

THOMAS Woods give you an exceptional advantage over other brands
by making it easier to aim and align your shot to the target.

Thomas Golf is the only company with this alignment technology,
and the only Pro-Line equipment manufacturer to sell directly to the public.

A “Number 2 Fairway Wood with 12 Degrees Loft” refers to a fairway wood golf club designed to provide performance similar to a traditional 2 wood but with a loft of 12 degrees. Let's break down the key components:

  1. Number 2: The term “Number 2” designates the club's role within the set. It corresponds to a fairway wood that is typically used for long-range shots and is part of the fairway wood series.
  2. Fairway Wood: A fairway wood is a type of golf club that is designed for shots from the fairway but can also be used off the tee. Fairway woods have larger heads than irons and are often used for longer shots.
  3. 12 Degrees Loft: The loft angle is a critical specification that determines the angle of the clubface relative to the vertical plane. In this case, a 12-degree loft indicates the angle at which the clubface is designed, influencing the trajectory and distance of the golf ball.

Key Characteristics:

  • Long-Range Performance: A fairway wood with a 12-degree loft is designed for long-range shots, providing a lower trajectory and increased distance.
  • Versatility: Fairway woods are versatile clubs that can be used from the fairway, rough, or off the tee.
  • Alternative to a 1 Iron: The Number 2 fairway wood is an alternative to a traditional 1 iron, offering forgiveness and ease of use, especially for players who find long irons challenging.

Usage: Golfers typically use a Number 2 Fairway Wood for long shots from the fairway or off the tee when a combination of distance and accuracy is required. The 12-degree loft provides a balance between achieving distance and maintaining some height in the ball's trajectory.

Q&A on the “Number 2 Fairway Wood with 12 Degrees Loft”:

12° loft number 2 fairway woods!

Performance:

  • Distance: Compared to a 1-iron, you can expect similar or slightly more distance with a 12° wood due to its larger sweet spot and lower center of gravity. The launch angle also contributes to longer carry distances, especially for slower swings.
  • Launch: Absolutely! This wood will likely launch the ball significantly higher than a 1-iron, making it easier to get airborne and carry further, especially for slower swings. This is a boon for golfers struggling with low launch issues.
  • Forgiveness: A key advantage of the wood is its superior forgiveness on off-center hits. The larger head size and lower CG minimize distance and accuracy loss compared to a 1-iron, offering more confidence on mishits.

Playability:

  • Long par 4s: While not the longest option, a 12° wood can handle some longer par 4s, especially with good launch and distance. Consider fairway woods with lower lofts for extreme lengths.
  • Tight lies: Although not ideal for heavy rough, the wider sole and higher bounce angle of some woods offer slight advantages over 3-irons in light rough or sand. Lower-lofted woods perform better in thicker rough.
  • Punch shots: The compact head and high launch are perfect for punch shots under low branches or tight situations. You can generate enough power without excessive height, ensuring the ball stays low and avoids obstacles.

Comparison to Other Models:

  • Thomas Golf AT505 2 Wood: Known for its classic feel and consistent performance, offering comparable distance and forgiveness as other reputable brands.
  • Callaway Rogue ST Max 2 Wood: This model emphasizes distance and explosive power, possibly offering slightly more distance than the AT505, but might prioritize distance over feel for some golfers.

Fitting Considerations:

  • Shaft flex: Choose a shaft flex that matches your swing speed. Stiff flex for faster swings, regular flex for average swings, and senior flex for slower swings. Consulting a professional fitter is recommended for optimal performance.
  • Grips: Most brands offer various grip options in terms of size and texture. Consider your hand size and preferred feel to choose the right grip.

Tips for Using a 2-Wood Effectively:

  • Practice: Spend time getting comfortable with the club on the range to understand its distance and launch characteristics.
  • Tee it up: On longer holes or tight lies, teeing up the ball can promote a cleaner strike and higher launch.
  • Swing smoothly: Focus on a smooth swing instead of trying to overpower the club. Let the wood's design do the work for you.
  • Use it strategically: Think of the 2-wood as your go-to option for long par 4s, tight lies where irons might struggle, or punch shots under pressure.

Benefits of Fairway Woods over Irons:

  • Distance: Fairway woods generally offer more distance than irons of the same loft due to their larger sweet spot, lower CG, and optimized launch angles.
  • Forgiveness: They provide significantly more forgiveness on off-center hits, minimizing distance and accuracy loss, especially beneficial for high handicappers and golfers with inconsistent swings.
  • Launch: Fairway woods launch the ball higher than irons, making them easier to hit for slower swings and in windy conditions.
  • Playability: They offer more versatility than irons, allowing you to hit a wider range of shots from various lies, including rough and sand.

Drawbacks of Fairway Woods:

  • Cost: Fairway woods are generally more expensive than irons.
  • Feel: Some golfers might prefer the traditional feel of irons compared to the slightly softer feel of woods.

Overall, a 12° loft number 2 fairway wood offers a versatile and forgiving option for a wide range of golfers. Consider your individual needs and preferences when choosing the right brand, model, and shaft flex for your game.
