What are your thoughts on the new drivers released so far? Are you tempted by any?

[MeGolf]

Thank you for the honest review. I'm a high handicapper. I tried the Callaway Paradym A1 Smoke and the TaylorMade QI10 in the Simulator. I currently have the original Stealth. Hands down I picked up 15 yards with the QI10. Great dispersion with a little fade. The QI10 feels like my Stealth. The Smoke felt a little stiffer. Both heads had a Regular Stiffness shaft. I wanted the Smoke but I was more impressed with the TaylorMade. We need more reviews from golfers like yourself. Thanks again!

I agree with you. This driver is amazing. I play a hole where if you want to get on the green off the tee, you need to get over a canyon. From tee to flag it’s 244 yards. I usually lay up this hole but today I went for it. Took my Qi10 max out with confidence and drilled a shot on to the fringe for an easy birdie. I was averaging 225yards with my previous driver. I couldn’t believe I made it

Great review again. You are so relatable to ‘average’ golfers who don’t have hyper fast swing speeds and centre face hits always. Well done.

Watched all the other driver reviews on this club and been waiting for yours. An actual player, not a pro, giving an honest review. This high of a recommendation I will have to try it out. Thanks a ton.

Got fitted today. Dispersion and distance my swing produced best numbers with the Taylormade Qi10 Max. Best ball spin ✅. Time to get on the driving range and get accustomed to the grip (standard size). My current M4 driver has a Medium sized Golf Pride MCC plus 4 grip.

Another nicely done review. Love the on-course action and how much effort you put in to capturing the club’s sound. Shot tracer is another quality touch. You’re going to be right about this driver. Been a while since I’ve played TM but this driver is getting a test drive. Looks like a fairway finding beast. New face is an upgrade on durability too. You were getting it out there and very playable.

I got some American Golf vouchers through work so looking to add driver, fairway and replacement hybrid. I’ve got Stealth 2 HDs irons so looking for similar levels of forgiveness in driver, woods and fairways. Am likely to go Ping G430 with hybrid having hit a few last week and will give all the new drivers and fairways a hit when I go for a fitting in a couple of weeks.

The insight here from reviews is invaluable and had a big impact on my purchase of the Stealth 2 HDs and CBX wedges last year.

2:23 looked like you were aiming at the trees down the left side, but still found the fairway!

Totally agree And - you ARE the man for the job ☺. I think the Max performed better (as designed) in your hands, at our speed, than it has for the PGA YTers that have reviewed it. At their speed (circa 110+ mph), the Max seemed to produce too much spin and too much launch, so it didn't look like a good choice. But a high launch at 2200 spin is a good outcome at 95 mph, so it could well be worth a try. Shame about the glossy, reflective crown though. At least Cobra nailed it in that department.

Love the review, your numbers are far closer to the majority of regular golfers which makes the review relatable for many

[jacquesvilleneuve]

Great review, alas someone is thinking for us average golfers. I bought a Titleist TSI 1 last year with a proper shaft (light) for my swing at 67 yrs old. Works good. No change for me, my wallet isn't thick enough to follow the trends by the big brands. I now play for fun, not only for score although its always nice to have a good round now and then.

[golfhawk]

Great review. I am now playing the regular Qi10. The TM rep said that this model has a combined MOI around 8, 500. Easily more forgiving than the Stealth 2+ that it replaced. But just as long.

With regards to the other models…..The Max spun too much. And I don’t have the game to play the LS.

[kevjak]

Lol. Your title is 100% correct. I tried the QI10 Max and just bought it 2 days later. 😂

[chilimaggaming]

I tried it out but my fitter didn't have the adjustable weight kit and the head was just too heavy for me. Got the Paradym AI-Smoke and love it!

[mwillgo]

I am tempted by the PXG Black Ops or the Ping G430 Max 10k. With a slight preference for the PXG because of the veteran’s discount they offer. My current driver a Ping G400 Max, is 6 years old. So, you could assume any new driver will be in the bag for quite awhile. The long term reliability of the carbon face on TaylorMade drivers gives me pause. I’ve seen numerous carbon faces that have separated from the driver head on golf social media. I understand that TM is good about replacing defective products but that’s just a hassle I don’t want deal with.

[derekbarclay]

I dared try the 10.5 Regular, now its in the bag. I started using the Stealth 2 HD 4/5 Hy and 5 FW, the Qi10 Max fits great with these with the Speeder NX shaft, but I will have it cut down an inch.

[banditbaker]

I'm really enjoying this year's Driver releases, as it's the first since becoming an ex-golfer I can enjoy the reviews without the trauma of how much a new driver will cost me😊😊

[macwallys]

Andy very interesting. I know you’re not a golf teaching professional but I have one question I always want to ask you would you like to make a video of your golf swing for once?
I am always so impressed by how effortless your swing looks. Would you mind telling us what you think happens when you swing a driver or an iron? I think many others would really appreciate that as well. Thank you so much.

[IvanProsper]

I am keen on new clubs this year and my old M1 is on the list for replacement as well. I am really excited by all the new drivers this year for the first time in a long time. the tech looks very practical for my ageing swing and slowing swing speeds
