I’m a 19 h/c and found the Titleist TSR1 to deliver the best results for me in my fitting last week. Tried several (TM, PING, MIZUNO) but for me and my swing, the TSR1 was the one. I hope everyone gets fitted and go with the one suited for you😃
@justintoop9477 ай бұрын
agree, got a fitting last week and best thing i ever did. ended up with a Mizuno ST Max. I probably play off about 16-17 and handicap never came into it. It was just the only club that i felt got back to the ball with the least effort for my swing speed. Others were too heavy.

I went out on a limb and ordered the Ping G430 Max 10K after watching your video, reading a million reviews and taking the Ping online fitting…… Played 2 rounds so far (In Norway) and simply can’t describe how impressed I am with this club and the level of confidence it gives me off the tee. Simply amazing, low spin, controllable, long and forgiving. I’ve cranked it down to 8 degrees, as I have no problem launching it in the air. (5HC)

Honestly if you guys are 25+ I wouldn’t buy a q10 max. I think it would be a great idea to get a forgiving driver but get a slightly older model, maybe used, and work on your game and used the money you saved on lessons. Callaway preowned site is a great place to look for used clubs that are basically new. You also gotta be careful buying a forgiveness based driver sometimes if you hit the ball hard as they increase spin rate for the most part and you’ll hit the ball a mile high and lose distance off the tee.

I've built my own clubs for 30 yrs, and I've used drivers from less that 300cc to 460cc, with and without movable weights. I've found the shaft to be the most important link in this process. When my swing speed was consistently around 120 mph in my mid 30's, I found an Alidla HM40XX shaft was best, and used it in 3 different clubhead designs. At 64 yrs kf age, I recently built a new driver, still using 9.5° of loft and a shaft with less torque, and a higher flex point, and I am averaging 250 to 260 yds off the tee, and I can hit a controlled driving power fade, which is my shot shape preference. I've taken my "custom" built drivers into several places to compare with the high dollar brand names, and my speeds, spin rate, launch angle, etc are just as good or better with the clubs I build for less than $150 vs the $300- $500 drivers. On at least 4 occasions, the person working with me in the club comaprison has asked to swing my club for themselves, and then want to buy me driver from me. Practice, spend time on the range learning to consistently hit the ball with a consistent shot shape, and you will score better. This is not a promotion post to downgrade brand name clubs. I actually use a Taylormade 3 wood that I've not replaced in 10 plus years because of how well and consistently I hit it. A $500 driver is not going to correct a poor swing.

@@conalsands4748 I did. But I also got fitted for mine - and you should too. It costs nothing and you’ll get the right shaft, lie angle and loft. Not to mention carbon or titanium, depending on which is best for you. Get fitted!

@@conalsands4748 why not test both? Why can’t you? Go to a fitting - like a club builder where you buy your clubs from. He’ll get you to hit like 30-40 balls with different lofts and shafts. And you’ll get the options that suit you best!

Very high 90s scorer who was recently in the 100s, and hoping to improve more soon. Went for a driver fitting a few months back and was fitted with a Callaway Paradym X 9° stiff Kaili white shaft, which helped with both distance and direction 👍

I used to shoot a varying and inconsistent round between 100 and 110. I got fitted with Ping G425 irons and Ping G425max driver. Now I`m shooting low to mid 90`s and I just love the off centred (most of my drives) help down the fairway

Hi Pete, I've just recently really gotten into golf and am slowly working my scores downtowards 100. (I don't go fishing anymore so needed another hobby to spend ridiculous amounts of money that I don't have on😂) Used to play casually years ago with a set of MaxFli clubs and loved loved them but left them in Australia before moving to Ireland. I have been playing with a cheap set of Stinger STX clubs i bought on special and I never know where the drives are going to end up! A mate recently lent me a Taylormade RBZ and bugger me, I have finally found out what a draw is. Only been hitting it at the range but finally feel confident behind a driver and can't wait to get out for a round when, or more accurately, if, this rain ever stops. Love the show mate and also swing quest. I reckon you've helped my game come along a lot quicker with all your tips. Cheers.

Good article, It's hard to know where to start when you're in the market for a new driver ! This gives you a starting point by comparing which club offers what you need ! Love to see a review on the new 230 series of drivers by Mizuno !

Peter, I watch enough of your videos at this point to finally commit to subscribing. The next time you have a subscribe push in a video that takes me by surprise, I will hit that button. I'm excited at the prospect. Also thanks for convincing me to try out the G430Max10k. I put it in the bag and my driving is better than ever.

Great video, fairly new to golf so don’t have a handicap at the moment. Looking change my driver, I as I picked one up cheap when I started. When I had a driver lesson a few weeks ago, the coach said I had a driver suited towards low a handicap player. I have been and was really struggling with getting any loft into shots with10 degrees. He grabbed a Mizuno with 12degree of loft and the a Stealth can’t remember what loft that was set to. said try these was blown away, by how much higher and further I was hitting them. Yes I still need to work on my swing, but if I make this game a little easier for now, I’ll take it until I have improved.

I played ts2 them tsi2 now a tsr2...im so used to it and wouldn't have any other driver. But I also have played titleist for over a decade. Noone beats vokey wedges or scotty putters imo. For an avid golfer they are great investments.

12 hcp. I use a PXG Gen5 0311 6.5 60 hzrdus yellow or g5 0311 XF x stiff tensei at raw white depending on course and how my game is. I happened to get both drivers new, for very low price. It’s fun using both and seeing how they compare. Both are 9 degree heads very different shafts, but both were fitted.

Went from a TSi3 to a G425 Max and now I find almost every fairway. The difference is amazing. Distance isn't everything.

20 handicap, I bought a qi10max after a fitting originally for a g430max to replace my ping g driver which I loved. I've only been able to use it at the range so far as my course has been closed due to the weather every time I've booked to play 😂

I'm a 13 handicap and just bought the Qi10 Max with the Ventus Red 5 shaft. I'm older with slower swing speed. The Qi10 just beat out the Ping for consistency in the Club Champion fitting.

G430 max owner here - i know its not the one in the video technically but as a 8.5 handicap, its incredible. Could I get more distance from a different driver? Probably.. but the 430 max offers (for me) the perfect blend of distance vs forgiveness. Most courses I play, if you can pap one down there 240 to 260 yards, you'll be in wedge range. Keep it in play with a gentle swing and youll be laughin. If there's no trouble and its wide open I can still put the gas on and take one out past 290 on occasion. Its the only "tech" upgrade i've really made in 15 years and it was worth it IMO.

Interesting. I haven't played a "new" driver in many years. Still hitting my Calloway Epic Sub-Zero's and I still love them. I can still out drive most people on the course (at age 62). I really don't see a need to get another driver (have a whole garage full of them). I really don't think I would get any more distance or playability out of anything else. But, these drivers do look great!
