Performance index
Six researched ratings, lower (blue) through to elite (gold).
Where it wins
- Forgiveness90
- Distance86
- Feel84
Watch
Rated highest for forgiveness and distance; its softest dimension is workability.
You fight a slice, want top-end stability and a simple high flight that lands softly, and are fine with a large head.
You want distance, a neutral or workable flight, or a softer feel — the standard Quantum Max fits better.
Pros
- About as forgiving as a hybrid gets — a big, high-MOI, draw-biased head
- An easy, high launch that fights a right miss and lands soft
- One of the most accurate hybrids in independent testing
Cons
- Higher-spinning and a touch shorter than the standard Quantum Max
- A firm, metallic feel and sound
- A big head some players will find bulky
By dimension
Forgiveness
Class-leadingAbout as forgiving as a hybrid gets — an oversized, high-MOI head and a fast face hold mishits fast and tight.
Distance
ExcellentLong but flight-first — it launches higher with more spin than the standard, trading a little run for a soft landing.
Workability
ModestMade to fly high and turn over — a big, draw-biased head that flies straight, not one for working shots.
Feel
ExcellentA hard, dense hit with a bright edge — direct and communicative rather than cushioned, sharpest when you find the centre.
Sound
ExcellentA hard, bright note — a loud, ringing crack that sits in the sharp-and-clanging camp, not the soft or dull one.
Looks at address
ExcellentA large, oversized head that sits well beyond a normal hybrid — reassuring for a slicer, a touch bulky for a purist.
