Performance index
Six researched ratings, lower (blue) through to elite (gold).
Where it wins
- Distance88
- Feel88
- Looks88
Watch
Rated highest for distance and feel; its softest dimension is forgiveness.
You swing it fast, strike it well, and want a long, low-spin head you can shape and tune three ways.
You want maximum forgiveness or an easy launch — the Qi35 Max or standard suits you better.
Pros
- One of the lowest-spinning, longest drivers of 2025 for a fast swing
- Genuinely workable — a three-port weight system sets draw, fade or low spin
- A lovely soft feel and more forgiveness than most low-spin heads
Cons
- A compact, low-spin head — it wants an above-average strike
- Only a subtle step on from the Qi10 LS, at a higher price
- Premium price
By dimension
Forgiveness
StrongMore forgiving than a low-spin head has any right to be — a redesigned weight system widens its appeal.
Distance
ExcellentSeriously long — very low spin and a higher launch than before mean a powerful, carrying flight for a fast swing.
Workability
ExcellentA proper shot-maker — three weight ports set a strong draw, fade or low-spin flight for a good player.
Feel
ExcellentA soft, spongy-but-fast strike — the carbon face gives an unusually gentle, quality hit for a low-spin driver.
Sound
ExcellentA muted, lower-pitched note than the Qi10 — quiet and refined for so fast a head.
Looks at address
ExcellentA compact, deep-faced tour head — a clean, purposeful shape a better player will want behind the ball.
