Performance index
Six researched ratings, lower (blue) through to elite (gold).
Where it wins
- Forgiveness88
- Distance85
- Feel85
Watch
Rated highest for forgiveness and distance; its softest dimension is workability.
You have a mid or slow swing, or fight low launch, and want the most forgiving, easiest-flying fairway.
You want to work the ball, need the lowest spin at speed, or want an adjustable hosel — the standard or Tour fits better.
Pros
- TaylorMade's most forgiving fairway — sky-high MOI and huge mishit ball speed
- Launches almost anything high, long and straight off the deck
- A big, confident, all-carbon-crowned head that still sits square
Cons
- No adjustable hosel or weight to fine-tune
- A built-in draw and big head limit shot-shaping
- A slightly thin sound and less low-spin punch than the standard head
By dimension
Forgiveness
ExcellentTaylorMade's steadiest fairway yet — a huge 200cc head with weight flung wide keeps even ragged strikes fast and airborne.
Distance
ExcellentLong through easy height — mid-high spin and strong mishit ball speed pile up carry, if it yields a little to the standard head.
Workability
ModestBuilt dead straight with a left lean — the big, high-MOI head resists shaping and just wants to fly high and on target.
Feel
ExcellentA solid strike right across the face — firm and consistent, if the note runs a touch thinner than the standard Qi10.
Sound
ExcellentA brisk, slightly thin crack at impact — sharper and a shade louder than the standard head, and even from heel to toe.
Looks at address
ExcellentA large, rounded head with a shallow face under an all-carbon crown — big, but it still sits square over the ball.
