Performance index
Six researched ratings, lower (blue) through to elite (gold).
Where it wins
- Feel84
- Distance83
- Sound83
Watch
Rated highest for feel and distance; its softest dimension is workability.
You want the longest, most forgiving fairway that launches high and easy off the tee or the deck.
You want to shape shots or need the lowest spin — the compact Rogue ST LS is the players' option.
Pros
- The most forgiving Rogue ST fairway, and one of the longest of its year
- A high, easy launch that helps if you struggle to get woods airborne
- Holds ball speed well across the face for consistent distance on a miss
Cons
- A neutral, semi-draw all-rounder with only modest shot-shaping
- The internal tungsten weight is fixed — no adjusting ball flight beyond the hosel
- Higher-spinning and higher-flighted than the low-spin LS for a fast swing
By dimension
Forgiveness
ExcellentThe steadiest of the family — an AI face and stiff blades hold ball speed on a miss and get it airborne with ease.
Distance
ExcellentAmong the longest of its year — a low, forward tungsten weight and a fast face give big ball speed and an easy carry.
Workability
ModestA neutral, slightly draw-leaning all-rounder — it flies high and fairly straight, with only modest shaping for a good player.
Feel
ExcellentA firm, energetic hit that feels genuinely fast off the face — plenty of pop, with a stable sensation on centre.
Sound
ExcellentA solid, fairly muted note at impact — clean and controlled, a touch fuller than the compact LS.
Looks at address
ExcellentA rounded, mid-large head with a dark carbon crown — a reassuring, easy shape rather than the trim LS players' profile.
