THE BEST GOLF DRIVERS 2020/2021 EASIEST TO HIT DRIVERS

[@MarkCrossfield]

Which driver from the list would you buy and why?

[@jamesferguson1043]

Mark Crossfield cobra because of the hype and suppose the price comes into it as well

[@rinarapenomanjato4186]

muzino because price and numbers are good. But need to feel and sound it. never buy callaway too expensive for this numbers lol

[@michellethompson9886]

mavrik! because i love callaway!

[@rinarapenomanjato4186]

but i love yellow on cobra and mat on ping. well I'm waiting the end of covid to come in uk or fr to fit one. try to find Mark it will be great and sure of my shop

[@waynetrinier4654]

Mark Crossfield Ping I need the forgiveness.

[@pikeevans8559]

Here is what I would like to see. I would like to see driver tests done with a robot. Test them at different swing speeds and let the numbers speak for themselves. I am not interested in what a driver with an extra stiff shaft does at speeds I will never be able to come close to. I would also like to see how they perform with different flex shafts. I think that would be a test that most people would interested in seeing.

[@warrenmays2300]

This is what I so enjoy about your content; honest appraisals, realistic advice, and fun banter. Buying a new driver this year and when the lockdown is over I'm trying Mizuno, Ping and Cobra.

[@thewatchman6074]

Matt has a "hand-crafted" shaft. This will eventually cause blindness.

[@peterhiggins5093]

Ping. Love mine, totally given me consistency on my drives.

[@sausagedodgersracing]

I’d like to see Matt testing the Mizuno and seeing what he can get out of it with a correct fit.

[@DavidSmith-lo7wf]

Before watching I called Mizuno in the final. Every review from every channel always seems to hit it really well, even if it's not the total longest. Just always seems to show up and always wins on price. It would be on my short list to try for sure. 👍

[@sevesellors2831]

My beloved Callaway BB Fusion has now developed a crack/ hole on the crown so slashed out on a Srixon 355 driver brand new for £129! This will go nicely with my Srixon 155 irons for £249 and Cleveland irons. Best clubs I've used over 35 years and the best value!

[@robertbogdan7058]

Honestly they'd all work for me. It's 99% the swing I put on it, 1% the club.

[@M82RKY]

Very true, however golf is 90% mental and looking down and liking what you see gives you confidence which impacts your mentality significantly.

[@whogg0521]

Only 5 minutes in and have to jump on a conference call. I swear, I DO thoroughly enjoy watching Vids with you both. Just makes me smile. I miss Dan too. GET UP, DAN!!!!

[@ryandouglas8461]

Great video Mark. Love the new studio! One comment though, the Titleist TS1 isn't the highest MOI or "MAX" product in the Titleist driver lineup, it's simply the lightest. It's designed for golfers with slower swing speeds to help them swing faster - it also launches higher with more spin. Know you mentioned its potential inclusion briefly, but the TS2 is the highest MOI Titleist TS driver. Would have been nice to see how the TS2 fared on performance versus the others. Imagine Matt would have had more ball speed and lower spin than he did with TS1.

[@1MauricioGarcia]

My personal choice is and will be Mizuno ST200

[@krispy1k]

Absolutely one of the best youtube vids I've watched yet! And I watch a lot of vids on YT. And I really liked Mark's description of his overall choice. Great vid fellas.

[@stevekim5920]

Been hitting the Taylormade R7 Limited w the Matrix Ozik for over 10 years. Always liked the weight, feel and sound and never needed to replace it. Used to play a lot back then, so forgiveness was never really an issue for me. Now I can't play as much and wanted something with more forgiveness. I just purchased the Mizuno ST200 because of the value coupled with that your testing showed very little variances. Another reason is I plan to switch my Taylormade irons to all Mizunos eventually.

[@frankdiciaula3194]

Great videos gents! I’m a low handicap player with similar speeds to Mark. I’ve recently tried all of them in a custom fit. I bought the SZ X, some things are very subjective...I loved the look and sound over all of them. As for the all important #s, SZ X was second to Mavrik but very close but no comparison of consistency and accuracy. I did get the PX yellow counter balance shaft and it made a big difference in my numbers. Distance, feel, and accuracy. Keep up the great work!

[@jamesthompson3822]

I was fitted for a Mizuno two days prior to lockdown. My pro kindly gave me a demo club to test on the course before I committed to purchasing. Let’s hope he’s forgotten about that 😂 seriously the mizuno is a great club. I’ll give it back one day..... stay safe everyone

[@justoronto]

This season I’ve gamed the Titleist, TM, Mizuno and now Ping. Mizuno worked the best for me.

[@matthewcroad7218]

Brilliant guys. Love watching Coach squirm over Callaway lol. Personally, after watching the reviews from yourselves, it has to be the Mizuno for me. Love the look (always have) and the price is perfect. When all this bad stuff has gone away, I will be treating myself to a new driver, this is my reward to me for adhering to the rules on Social distancing. Keep safe guys

[@randymahony8157]

I almost went with mizuno but Callaway mavrik standard won for me and that is what I play.

[@danwoodard9056]

I would and did buy the Mizuno. Performance and price! I really wanted to buy the ping. Buttery smooth off the face but expensive. You guys rock.

[@jamesferguson1043]

Agree with Mark Mizuno for brand and price over the other’s

[@M82RKY]

"family announcement" absolutely hilarious 🤣 I use the speedzone (standard) and really like it, sound, feel and looks however I really don't get on well with the shaft (tensei blue) at all, just swapped it out for a Hzrdus Smoke to help with the ball flight and my tendency to LASH at the ball.

[@mitchcosentino674]

I have hit them all in January and I preferred the TM SIM 1st and the Mizuno 2nd in both performance and looks. I made my choices without knowing the prices. Amazing that the Callaway and the Titleist are 50% more than the Mizuno. One and a half times more!!

[@johngrammatico6864]

I bought a ping 410 driver, and ping 425 3 and 5 woods this weekend. Needless to say I am very happy. The driver sound is a little weird. It reminds me of hitting a baseball with an aluminum bat, has that hollow kind of metal sound. But I notice the harder you hit it the more a nice smack sound comes to it. Doesn't bother me at all though.

[@albertotorres27]

Good point made on the Mizuno. I was fit into a G410 but if I would of done my homework saw this video prior to I would of asked to get the ST200 into the fitting session. Thank you.

[@andyholt7038]

I may be in the minority here BUT for my swing/delivery/speed....I went TM and couldn’t be happier. Fitted M6 got the fitted G400max out of the bag last year and sim max was just an upgrade across the board vs M6.

[@gogolfargentina189]

I've just bought the mizuno st200x driver, 5 wood and 7 wood.... Can't wait to get on the course with them when this lockdown in Argentina is finally lifted

[@S.forbes]

I would go Mizuno. Price and performance. Looking to replace my G400 in 2022 and Mizuno is definitely on my list of club's to try.

[@derrek1971]

Mark your sidekick has bumped his head. The Maverick it's his gaming driver. Should have used a stock shaft in it. Mizuno is clearly the best bang for the buck. TM is the king though. Best golfers in the world show that too. TM for life here. Great video!

[@podge1978]

Mark do a video with the Mizuno trying to get the potential out of the club. It would be really interesting to see how much more it would cost, if anything, to get the numbers up to match the rest of the longer hitting clubs. Great video as always! 👍🏼

[@jes_40]

I bought the ST200 due to price and love it! Can't go wrong with it!!

[@daveweedall4505]

I've always baught Callaway but going on that honest review by mark I'd go for the mizuno it's all about the swing you put on it

[@matthewsomerfield6366]

Dave Weedall honestly before you make that decision go in and try hitting many drivers, it all comes down to how comfortable you feel with the club. For instance I use Callaway maverick irons, but when trying drivers I couldn’t go past the TaylorMade Sim Max for me tried the maverick driver and did not like the feel of the club and the load noise it made when hitting the ball. This is my opinion though. Good luck with your game

[@daveweedall4505]

@@matthewsomerfield6366 after trying the mizuno sim and cobra I decided on the Callaway epic the sim for me just didn't do it cheers

[@matthewsomerfield6366]

Dave Weedall really good driver I here, it has a nice weight and feel to it more so than the maverick

[@gunner9010]

I've never ever considered buying a Mizuno driver but next year I just might after watching this video. Always informative and comical videos. I like the "Let's get stuck in." lol

[@ET-qv7gw]

I would shortlist callaway, ping and mizuno on looks, buzz and past experience and then test for feel and performance 👍🏻 and be very happy with whichever was the winner.

[@mdunhamful]

Thanks for the video ...Which one was the most forgiving. When I hit the drive hard I get a slice right. I sacrifice distance to hit it straight. I get it 200-220 Like that I don’t care about the price. Which one please

[@RichardJones-hk6vs]

I would buy the Mizuno. Had an MP600 and it was brilliant. I now play a Ping G400, but will probably go back to Mizuno. I play MP20’s, and now that Mizuno have a driver that competes with the “others” I will definitely look at it . Great videos guys. Keep em comin👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🏌🏼‍♂️🏌🏼‍♂️🏌🏼‍♂️🏌🏼‍♂️

[@jonnyl3943]

I am interested in how Coach always comes back to how it looks and how that overrides the performance for him... I would always want a club I like the look of but surely at our level of golf the performance and cost should be the key element not just aesthetics? Or this there an argument to be made for liking the looks of the club allowing the user to perform better with it?

[@arthuracorn]

I am using the taylormade for a while but missing my ping g410. Ping have featured well in all of the reviews and performed well at a middle road price .

[@colinschrank5576]

Love this guys, we all love the price of the Mizuno and more companies should follow suit on the price instead of gauging us for one club. But my pick has to be Ping, I happen to be in the market for a driver and I actually like the look of these turbulators and the performance speaks for itself.

[@Finbar79]

I game the Ping G400 max and have done for about 18 months. I love it and would probably go for the G410 if I was going to change.

[@toddbookout3845]

Coach, hit some more with the mizuno. I want to see if it can get to your Callaway!!!

[@danmagruder358]

I agree totally, put Danno's Callaway Mavrik shaft in the Mizuno. I'd like to see that test.

[@charlesrose5238]

Ping all day will hit the Callaway further 1 out of 7 but will never as steady as the Ping. I play the G410 plus now really like it. Have hit the Mavrik and it goes but also in a lot of directions as well.

[@jamesharrison5004]

I'd be more than happy to play the Mizuno if it felt right. I'm currently playing the Launcher HB Turbo and it wins on performance, visible tech, sound and price.

[@mattymid2522]

Brought the ST200 before lockdown. Didn’t know it was cheaper when testing a few and that was the cherry on the top for me. Also like the fact it won’t be in many other bags!

[@jimmymccracken1394]

Agree that mizuno has to be the winner on all around. Mavrik sounds so good though and seems to be a top performer. Do agree with coach, I do really like the Callaway Preowned site. Some great deals on there. Would love to see a Mavrik vs Rogue video just to see how little different there is in performance.

[@CCHRISTOF]

I have had Ping irons for many years, but for some reason cannot get on with their woods, and find the new head distracting. I have a Callaway Rogue driver, but I would probably now go for the Mizuno as great value/performance ratio.

[@William45ish]

Great video chaps. Would be good to see you guys do the same tests on the 3 Woods to these Drivers that you tested. I’d be interested to see that. 👍👍

[@greasby1golf871]

I absolutely love the Ping, my Dad has one, love the look behind the ball, love the sound, I don’t need the sound but love the scary factor it adds. I just can’t justify that money on a driver over family stuff when I already pay a membership.

[@floridasaltlife]

I always pick Ping and never have to agonize over it. Still hitting my 2014 karsten club set and they are still over my head :)

[@davepalmerton2429]

I bought and play a Callaway, but how can you argue against the Mizuno. I truly believe that all of the manufacturers make good products, and it comes down to personal taste.

[@arthuracorn]

Ping also holds its value well and is a current model for longer.

[@gavin6535]

Got to say lads, I'm always very sceptical about what these companies say about what clubs can actually do for your game, but last year I was fitted for the ping 410 sftec and now i play it out to the right knowing it'll draw draw back in. Total confidence in this club 👍

[@danielthorpe4919]

I picked Taylor Made and Cobra , hit more fairways and save money , better than wasting extra hundred on Callaway for maybe 5 yards.

[@ssfelst]

What a lot of fun for you Rick👍😄

[@peterguildford2133]

Good video. It came down to the huge difference in price. In all other categories there was always 2 or 3 in the race, but when it came to price the mizuno was a clear winner. For me average joe, id not worry about looks and sound, if it performs distance and deviation, then its down to price, end of.

[@davemarshall2756]

PING the flat setting is amazing for me.

[@philipnunn1816]

Was thinking the same Mark..... Where's my Cleveland Launcher HB Turbo!!!! Seriously though it has to be Mizuno and Ping out of that line up

[@ignorance123]

His bottom 3 had the lowest carry and total distance. Interesting... Neat to see Matt try to hone in on the Mizuno's optimal numbers.

[@_Will919]

I don't know if you can beat a Ping driver. For price, performance, looks, brand prestige, and use on tour (if you care about such things) the Ping is my winner. Sound is its only weak spot in my opinion.

[@seancook2264]

Will S I have the G410 in the bag and would agree regarding the sound initially. But having played a few rounds with it when it’s middled it gives a deeply satisfying pop! 💥 👍🏼

[@kevinhuebschman8873]

Mark you should compare the ST200, Clev. Launcher and the Wilson D7. All good performing inexpensive drivers!

[@henaman2504]

Im hearing great things about Mizuno drivers - Value for money always a sure way to go.

[@terrybrett6164]

I think ping is the best around driver for me.

[@craigtalbot9316]

Currently using the Ping G410 and love it, but Mizuno came out well here. Sim and Mavrick will be tested too after lockdown 🙈

[@peteraloisio3533]

Can we go low tech and produce a whiteboard in the new studio with a table showing ticks and crosses for pro’s and con’s? You have state of the art touch screen (thanks foresight golf) and great setup, but your missing out on a whiteboard especially for all these comparisons.

[@MrJMorgs]

Off topic here but have you done any recent reviews on home simulators? Would really appreciate your input on this subject !! Thanks for all the great content !!

[@LemThurdy420]

Bought the Mizuno last month, Its SIIIICCKKKK

[@adriancox-thesantjordigolf3646]

I agree with you, Mizuno,

[@harryeldridge7895]

I have a hankering for the Mizuno ST 200 for the lie angle and loft adjustability, price and i like the looks of it ! Of coarse if i hit the lottery I'd look at the Ping as well.....

[@raymondgao4757]

Hi Mark, thanks for your video. Just wondering what about Cleveland launcher HB turbo and Wilson D7 comparing to all the drivers in the video?

[@myopenmind527]

Well done guys. I’d go for the Mizuno. 👍 I’m considering buying it but I have to try it first. I’ve always got on with Mizuno drivers but am currently using a Callaway subzero at the moment.

[@MrPoppytat]

Interesting vlog..was in the market this year for a new driver, but with a dam good chance of not much golf to be played delaying my purchase till next year. I am not a fly by night have to have the latest shiny precious thing. e.g current driver 2014 Cobra Bio Cell ..still love it..just it will be 7yrs old when I change it next year..and I'm hopeful 7yrs of tech will give me an extra 3-6yards!!!!..."oooo must have my 6yards"!!!...err if I put a decent swing on it...strike is king!...stay well everyone.🤒🏌️

[@wdescoteaux]

Mizuno for me! After a proper fitting of course.

[@malicarr1]

When life returns to normal I'm looking for a new driver to replace my trusty 7 yr old (but overlofted) Cleveland Classic XL 12▫ and its either Ping (possibly G400 max if available) or another Cleveland I'll be asking about at fitting (given Cleveland isn't really as fittable). Another great vid chaps

[@aaronstanyer9393]

Interesting Coach talked about the looks of the Mizuno...Seems to have a bit of the classic titleist mixed with the callaway carbon about it of which he liked both! personally I love how Mizuno maintained a classic vibe but made it look modern.

[@williamlagasse2438]

Bought the Mizuno Driver and 5w...very nice

[@stephendibari5010]

I have a brand new Ping G410+ with a Ping Tour 65S shaft since November but haven’t swung a club since Late October when i slipped on a mold covered boulder and tore my rotator rotator. Had surgery on 18 Dec (repaired my Infraspratus, but couldn’t repair my Supraspratus, botched up the spelling there, LMAO) and started my PT/rehab first week of Feb, 6 weeks after my surgery.. At least 2 more months before i can swing 100%.... Ive seen almost every KZbin video on the G410+ and have to believe its one of the best performers for distance and forgiveness having one of the highest MOI’s of any driver from 2019 (maybe 2020 also). So i cant really pick any driver, would like to say Ping G410+, but the Mizuno ST200 MAX & Mavrik MAX would be definite choices to test against

[@SixSigmaGolf]

Very good video guys! I'm a big mizuno fan so i'm happy too haha. Hope to see on the orher driver categories the same tests.

[@peterlund6495]

Mavrik purely on Sound Mark, but I do like the Cobra and Titleist

[@stephhamilton8100]

Ive bought an ST200 and its lovely. So lovely in fact my mate has bought one too. (previous was a G400lst)

[@jackmotus4372]

PING all day long - been playing PING for years.

[@tattooedclimber7209]

Hi mark, what golf clubs would you recommend for a beginner? I have played before but still a beginner but I’m after some clubs, cheers.

[@brewssssss_]

Very interesting that the mavrik is the only fitted one and everything else is keeping up. I know it’s near impossible but would be very interesting seeing them all fitted for matt and the numbers after that. Everything’s just good isn’t it

[@davidtison905]

Mizuno for me. I'm gaming the ST 180, maybe time to replace it?

[@darrenmiller1981]

Anything winning other than the Mizuno would be a travesty - if these clubs all perform ‘the same’ for a faster swing speed pro, then for the person they’re aimed at, price should be the main consideration (looks and feel notwithstanding, but again they’re all similar in that regard). Add to that the amount of zero cost customisation Mizuno will do for shafts, grips etc and it’s a no brainer

[@jaybyrne4562]

I've got an st190, it's good, really good. It was cheaper than the other brands, but I loved its look, then I tested it and it was ace! So for the money to performance it was a no brainer. Others may have got a few extra yards, but 5 or 6 yds ain't worth 150 quid! 🙈

[@sirtogii5216]

The winner is the golfer. He or She gets a multitude of excellent performing drivers in different styles and at different price points to suit most of them. You cannot really go wrong.

[@davidmuriel7149]

I play G410 Plus and it's hands down easiest driver I have ever played. Like most players I don't hit the middle often but this club still makes the ball go!

[@easyswing007]

I remember demonstrating the sim max driver earlier this year. It was absolutely amazing, some day I will be able to afford it 🤜🤛

[@stephentaylor9369]

I’m really tempted by the ping, the matt finish looks awesome. However, the price of new drivers is hard to take. That’s why I’m also very tempted by Callaway rogue for 279 now. I play xr16 so the rogue at that price point seems a natural step...

[@jeremyansell6797]

I enjoying watching both your’s and Coach’s opinion in all reviews (they seem to remain pretty consistent and not influenced by advertising blurb...IMO 🤭) however I’d be interested to see the same test (best driver) of the Max range if they were all fitted. As you said in the video the Mizuno has potential, and I’d like to see it maximised but it might crush Coach if the Callaway doesn’t come out on top once fitted! 🤣😂

[@home4ya]

Great vid - love my Ping G400max, are any of these as or more forgiving than my max? Longer?

[@anthonytaylor3510]

a bit skewed this one would it have so difficult to test the maverick (can't bring myself to spell it that way!) with a stock shaft. hope the loakes are comfy if not stick with them they will be like carpet slippers I've had a pair of chesters for years classics.

[@robbiles]

Not a Srixon, Cleveland or XXIO in the mix. I can trust this compare. Oh no, Coach is in the house. Ping for me. Name, looks/visible tech and price.

[@anthonyfoster5307]

I have watched this a number of times. A couple of other considerations: 1. Matt's driver with his personalised shaft is far more than £449 2. The SZ although being a slower swing speed had similar ball speeds to the other drivers.

[@MarkCrossfield]

Which one do you think is best?

[@anthonyfoster5307]

@@MarkCrossfield based on the information Mizuno or Ping. I like the looks of the Mizuno at a great price and as you always say Ping is a great all rounder but I have never liked looking down on those foils. Thank you for the response. Made my day in NZ. 😊

[@matthewsomerfield6366]

Hi guys love your work, but just watched the review for “The best golf drivers 2020/2021 easiest to hit drivers” You mentioned that The Sim Has a fixed weight, are you referring to the movable weight for draw and fade shots This is found in the Sim not the Max which you where testing. My apologies if you are referring to the weight add the end of both models
