Performance index
Six researched ratings, lower (blue) through to elite (gold).
Where it wins
- Looks87
- Forgiveness86
- Feel85
Watch
Rated highest for looks and forgiveness; its softest dimension is workability.
You want a very forgiving, straight driver that still lets you work the ball a touch, from the widest-fitting model.
You want the absolute straightest head (the Max) or the lowest spin for speed (the LS).
Pros
- A genuine 10,000-MOI head — hugely forgiving and straight
- The fastest of the three Qi10s, with a nice carbon feel
- The all-round pick — forgiving but with a little shot-shaping
Cons
- The Qi10 Max forgives more; the LS spins less
- The distance edge over the other two is marginal
- Premium price
By dimension
Forgiveness
ExcellentA true 10,000-MOI head — hugely stable and straight, if a step behind the dedicated Max for outright forgiveness.
Distance
ExcellentThe fastest of the Qi10 trio — a multi-layer carbon face adds ball speed, though the gain over the others is small.
Workability
FairMore adjustable in flight than most 10K heads — it flies fairly straight but lets a good player move it a little.
Feel
ExcellentA clean, solid strike — a lively carbon face with a pleasant, well-judged impact.
Sound
ExcellentA crisp, carbon crack at impact — a shade sharper than the model it replaced.
Looks at address
ExcellentA near-full carbon crown gives a clean, modern top — a big, confident shape at address.
