Performance index
Six researched ratings, lower (blue) through to elite (gold).
Where it wins
- Distance88
- Forgiveness86
- Feel85
Watch
Rated highest for distance and forgiveness; its softest dimension is workability.
You want one adjustable hybrid that does everything — long, forgiving, workable, in a clean mid-sized head.
You want the biggest, most forgiving head or the softest feel — the Quantum Max OS or a softer rival fits.
Pros
- Long, dependable distance, holding pace even on hits low on the face
- A balanced head — forgiving on a miss, workable for a good player
- Highly adjustable — a seven-way hosel and heel-toe weights
Cons
- The hosel adjustment process is fiddly
- A powerful, firm feel rather than soft
- Premium priced
By dimension
Forgiveness
ExcellentGenuinely steady for a mid-sized head — an Ai face and a low, forward weight hold speed on low and off-centre hits.
Distance
ExcellentLong and dependable — a quick Ai face and a deep, front-set weight pump out carry, even when you catch it low.
Workability
FairA balanced, mid-sized head — a good player can shape it, and it still holds a straight line on demand.
Feel
ExcellentA forceful, full-bodied hit — strong and lively at impact, sitting between sharp and dull, and genuinely rewarding.
Sound
ExcellentA robust, full-bodied tone — sitting midway between a sharp ring and a dead thud, weighty and agreeable.
Looks at address
ExcellentA neat, mid-size modern shape that never reads bulky — a lustrous, dark-pearl top, simple to sit behind.
