GT4
CaddyIndex™ breakdown — what the agentic research found across each of the six performance dimensions, with cited sources.
Low-handicap (0-10) fast swingers (100-125 mph) with spin rates above 3,000 RPM who lose distance to ballooning — the GT4 forward setting transforms high spin into bomber-class carries.
Your swing speed is below 95 mph (the low-spin design becomes a distance liability), you need maximum forgiveness (GT2 delivers it), or you want 5-position sliding-weight shape granularity (GT3 has the track).
Pros
- Highest ball speeds in the GT family with the forward weight setting (2-2.5 mph faster than the GT2 / GT3) per MyGolfSpy
- The brand's most aggressive spin-reducing driver ever — Top-5 on the PGA Tour driving distance leaderboard in a staffer's bag (~317yd avg)
- Dual Spin-Control Settings (forward 11g / 3g vs back) give two distinct flight profiles in one head
- Golf Digest 2025 + 2026 Hot List Gold; persimmon-like solid feel with a refined acoustic
Cons
- Compact 430cc head with the lowest MOI in the GT family — the least forgiving driver in the 2024 lineup
- 1 year old in 2025 — a moderate recency penalty applied; the 2026 GTS4 refines the concept further
- Only 2 weight positions (vs the GT3's 5-position track) — less granular shape adjustability than the GT3
- Tour adoption thin — only a single top tour pro gamed it (a niche head for high-spin fast swingers)
By dimension
Forgiveness
Reviewers note forgiveness somewhere between the standard and low-spin siblings with weight back — better players will be surprised at how forgiving this smaller head is, particularly with heavier weight back. The compact 430cc head with forward CG (when weight forward) sacrifices MOI for spin reduction. Speed Ring stabilises perimeter of face while variable face thickness ensures minimal drop-off on mishits. Below-class for the 2024 standard, expected for the most-compact spin-killer in the family.
Distance
Robot testing showed with the heavier sole weight in the front port, ball speeds are the highest in the family — 2-2.5 mph higher than other family members. One of the longest drivers in 2025, excelling at both carry and total distance performance. Tour pro using this driver ranks 4th in PGA Tour driving distance 2024 at 317.1 yards. Most aggressive spin-reducing driver ever equals real distance gain for high-spin fast swingers.
Workability
Reviewers note the compact pear-shaped head with forward CG produces a penetrating low-spin flight with neutral bias that better players can work both ways. The Dual Spin-Control Settings give two distinct flight profiles — forward weight equals aggressive spin reduction, back weight equals stability/forgiveness. Tour validation at the highest level for shape control at slow-spin tour venues.
Feel
Reviewers describe the sound of impact as marrying perfectly with the solid feel — close as you can get to the feel of a persimmon driver in modern clubs. The feel is more like you're hitting the ball with a sledgehammer despite the thin high-tech titanium face. Feedback is excellent, with hands immediately knowing where the ball met the face.
Sound
Reviewers describe a quiet, understated impact sound with a satisfying crack on center — volume turned way down — percussive smack similar to the standard sibling but higher-pitched and a little tighter. The acoustic is slightly different from other family drivers — a little higher pitched and not as dense, but no less powerful.
Looks at address
Industry awards recognized the model at the top tier of both the 2025 and 2026 Hot Lists. Reviewers note the compact 430cc player-preferred shape — tour-classic profile at address. The 430cc compact head with classic pear shape provides better-player aesthetics. Tour validation at the highest level.
