I had the 3W as well -- great off the tee. Deeper face seemed to need a flatter swing plane for best results off the deck. But it was quite long, not as forgiving on off center hits as some newer models. The Alpha shafts tend to be pretty stout to flex. It makes a really nice driver alternative.
Good luck with it. Mime went the way of all things and I've gone to a Tour Edge 4 wood for my fairway club, and it's long enough off the tee for those shorter holes where I play.
