By the CaddyCompare editorial team · updated 13 July 2026
Performance index
Six researched ratings, lower (blue) through to elite (gold).
Where it wins
- Looks85
- Feel82
- Distance81
Watch
Rated highest for looks and feel; its softest dimension is workability.
You want a low-spin, long, straight driver with tight dispersion — and don't mind a muted, understated sound.
You need maximum mishit forgiveness or love a loud, lively crack at impact.
Pros
- One of the lowest-spinning, longest drivers of 2023 for a genuine distance surprise
- Excellent left-to-right dispersion keeps tee shots on their line
- A clean, compact carbon-crown look you'd expect from a pricier big-brand driver
Cons
- Ball speed and mishit speed retention are good, not quite elite
- A muted carbon sound gives little feedback — not for everyone
- A neutral, straight profile with limited draw or fade shaping
By dimension
Forgiveness
StrongTee shots hold their starting line remarkably well; ball-speed retention on a bad strike is good without being among the very best.
Distance
StrongOne of the lowest-spinning drivers of its year — high launch and neutral flight turn into genuinely long, straight carry.
Workability
ModestA straight, neutral driver more than a shot-shaper — the fore/aft weights tune spin and stability, not draw or fade.
Feel
ExcellentFirm, fast and clean off the face — nearly as good as the big-brand heads, if a touch harder and less communicative.
Sound
StrongA soft, muted carbon impact — low on ring and quick to fade, telling you little about where you struck it.
Looks at address
ExcellentA carbon crown in a sharp red, white and black finish — a compact, clean 460cc head that sits beautifully behind the ball.
