I have a an older Cleveland 13* strong 3-wood in my bag. I primarily use it as an alternative tee-club. If the driver will go through the fairway on a dogleg or if I'm just struggling off the tee, it gets the job done. Where I get 275-320 out of the driver (mountain course=uphill or downhill on every drive), the strong 3 goes 255-270 or so. I seldom hit it off the fairway anymore because it's a nightmare from anything but a closely shorn and level fairway, but when I used to play on flat courses it was great for a second shot on long par-5s.
It offers great control over trajectory too. Off the tee I can hit a low wind-penetrating shot by teeing it level with the grass, or hit a high soft-landing shot by teeing it half-a-ball above the club face.
