I've rented the new BB 3wood. Jury is still out I must admit.
I would say it's very handy in headwinds as the extra distance helps
The L89 is a great club and will travel over 300 in tailwinds.... so I will stick with that I think.
As with both the L89 and L97 you have to hit ding, miss it then troubles... Just a worry with the L97 is miss ding with the extra distance and you can get into big trouble.
Still L97 is very good, but as said before... I keep the L89.
I noticed one of the other posts about the long Par3's... Not sure what hole, but the long Par3 on Rsg... in heavy headwinds I use the Punch Shot using the R1 Driver... that has a 250 range is very handy shot on that hole.
