Where it wins
- Feel84
- Sound82
- Forgiveness80
Watch
Rated highest for feel and sound; its softest dimension is workability.
You fight a slice and want best-in-class forgiveness with an adjustable, controllable draw and a solid, premium feel - a long, easy bomber for mid-to-high handicaps at a value price.
You want to work the ball, the lowest spin, or the latest tech - the draw-biased Max gives way to the LTDx LS or a newer model.
Pros
- Best-in-class forgiveness - a high-MOI head with the biggest sweet spot of the LTDx family and the smallest mishit drop-offs
- Adjustable draw bias of 5-11 yards to straighten a slice, with low-medium spin so it doesn't balloon
- A long, forgiving bomber with a solid, muted, premium feel - no loud crack or high-pitched ping
- 13g of movable weight plus an 8-setting hosel to tune draw and trajectory
Cons
- A high-MOI draw head rather than a shaper - the heel weighting bakes in a draw
- Three-season-old tech now, and the loud orange accents won't be for everyone
By dimension
Forgiveness
StrongBest-in-class for its year - a 5,400 MOI head with the biggest sweet spot of the family and the smallest mishit drop-offs across the face, dispersion 10-20 yards tighter than the standard. Finds the fairway on all but the worst swings.
Distance
StrongA long, forgiving bomber - square hits deliver big yardages from the high-MOI head, with low-medium spin keeping it efficient rather than ballooning.
Workability
ModestA draw head rather than a shaper - a built-in 5-11 yard draw depending on weight position, with the adjustable weighting tuning the draw strength while the high-MOI head resists shaping on demand.
Feel
ExcellentA solid, muted, very explosive feel - a satisfying crack with a little pop, premium and powerful without a loud crack or high-pitched ping.
Sound
ExcellentA solid, muted tone that sounds premium and powerful without the loud crack or high-pitched ping some golfers dislike - controlled and pleasing.
Looks at address
StrongA subtle carbon matte crown accented with bold orange, in a more oval-than-triangle shape that's appealing at address. Clean overall, though the orange accent is divisive.
