Pros & cons

Pros

MyGolfSpy 2024 Most Wanted Fairway: 2nd in distance — a major upgrade over the std Aerojet predecessor.
Matte black head is a thing of beauty — on par with the best fairway woods of the year.
CNC-milled PWRSHELL face delivers a deep solid click — fitter feedback flagged it as a rocket in the Trackman studio.
~155 mph average ball speed from 108 mph clubhead in editorial testing.

Cons

Mid-pack forgiveness and accuracy per MyGolfSpy 2024 — distance leadership doesn't carry across all scoring metrics.
Single rear weight port — no swappable bias kit like the successor DS-Adapt LS.
Forward CG limits ease of elevation from the deck vs shallower competitors.
One year of fairway tech progress since release — the DS-Adapt platform now succeeds it.

Best for: 0-18 handicap players with 85-110 mph 3W speed who want a class-leading distance fairway with a neutral CG profile and premium acoustic — accepting fitting is needed to dial in accuracy.

Avoid if: You prioritize forgiveness or accuracy over distance, you need a draw-biased slice corrector (pick the Max), or you want the latest 2025 platform with 33-setting adjustability.
