Orlimar Brings Back the Iconic TriMetal Fairway Wood

Roseville, CA — Hireko Golf, owner of Orlimar Golf, is excited to announce the return of one of the most recognizable clubs, the Orlimar TriMetal Fairway Wood. Originally launched in 1998, the TriMetal quickly earned a reputation for innovative design and exceptional playability from the tee to the fairway. Now, 28 years later, the newest iteration combines the TriMetal’s legendary design with modern technology to deliver faster ball speeds, higher launch, and longer distance.

Designed for a wide range of golfers, the Orlimar TriMetal Fairway Wood is a forgiving fairway wood that helps improve ball speed, launch angle, and overall consistency.

The new TriMetal features an ultra-thin S450 maraging steel face, designed to maximize ball speed while producing a crisp, powerful feel at impact. A vacuum-cast 17-4 stainless steel sole, heat-treated for strength, enhances durability while optimizing weight distribution throughout the clubhead.

A strategically positioned copper weighted screw provides pinpoint accuracy and forgiveness, while the club’s Shallow face and railed sole make it an easy-to-launch fairway wood, especially effective from tight lies and challenging turf conditions.

The TriMetal is paired with the SK Fiber Supernova Copper graphite shaft, engineered for enhanced stability, ball speed, and launch. This newest iteration builds on the TriMetal’s legendary design to deliver confidence on every swing.

If you’ve ever taken a golf lesson or gone down the rabbit hole of swing videos online, you’ve likely heard about the importance of sequencing. A well-timed swing generates more speed and power than one that’s out of sync. 

However, there’s a critical link in the chain many amateurs forget—largely because they don’t even realize it’s part of their sequence in the first place.

Mike Perpich, a GOLF Top 100 Teacher, explains that if you want to hit longer, straighter drives, you have to learn how to time your head in your swing. Not your clubhead. Your noggin.

Sequence your head for more speed

Now, you might be wondering, “what does my head have to do with my golf swing?”

As Perpich explains, the head plays a vital role in the swing because it helps counterbalance your lower body in your transition and downswing. This creates a slingshot effect that boosts clubhead speed.

It works like this: as you transition into the downswing, you change direction. To do so, you have to push off your trail foot. As a result, pressure shifts forward. This initiatives your downswing sequence. But, as Perpich explains, it also causes your force to move from back to front. As your club and lower body move forward, your upper body actually needs to resist briefly and work in the opposite direction. 

“You can’t have the top and the bottom going in the same direction,” Perpich says. “Your head is going to feel like it’s going backwards. That’s what helps speed the clubhead up.”

This brief moment of separation is what causes the “whip” effect that elite players use to maximize speed.

Time your head to boost accuracy

Poor head sequencing might be draining you of power. It could also be the cause of your mis-hits with the driver. In a swing where the head is going forward at the same time as their lower body, Perpich says, the path of the swing will likely travel too far out—or over the top—and you’re going to have to compensate to strike the ball.

“When the head moves with the torso, you’re hitting down with the driver,” he says, “So, you’re not going to get a center hit, and you’re also not going to get an ascending blow.”

Remember: head backwards for longer straighter drives

If you’re trying to incorporate this into your swing, Perpich says to think about the top of your head going backwards as you change direction and begin the transition into your downswing.

“It’s like a whip, a slingshot,” he says, “You have to have the bottom half going forward, but the top half is going backwards.” 

Do that, and you’ll hit longer, straighter drives.
