- In today's video I will be looking at the Taylor Made Qi10 Drivers that are new onto the market. These Drivers are already going into the bags of some of the best players in the world, but are they any better than previous models?......

Great review Dan.
Great review Dan. 👍🏻
Great review and edits Dan!
Great review Dan. Love seeing your club reviews.
Always been partial to ping drivers myself but these sure look nice.
Brilliant review Dan always love the honesty in your reviews, because I'm teaching all the time I get a hit with all the new drivers , and to be totally honest I hate changing , I still use the Taylormade M4 driver , but I do like trying different shafts in it once a year at my M8 fitting centre , so this year I've put in the fujikura vista pro x flex in , a bit more stable than my old shaft and helps me stay on a tighter line ,
Would be interesting seeing a vlog using your driver with different shafts in to see if you find something say if you play a stiff shaft trying different torque shafts etc , and great for viewers who can't always afford new drivers , when there is an option to change a shaft for say 70quid to fit in there existing driver head , hope that made sense , keep up the great work M8 .... Jules⛳👍
I love the look of the crown in the sun and I've always been a big fan of Callaway. A few of guys I know have fit into the 💎💎💎 that normally wouldn't ever be able to hit it. Very impressive from them this year.
I just tested the driver today they put me in the triple diamond with a 40 gram regular I had my best numbers in years
@timothykennedy4457 That's what I keep hearing and seeing. I'm looking forward to hopefully getting a chance to hit it myself. Thanks for the reply I hope you have a great time with it.
It’s funny. I use the old Paradigm TD but was fit into the Max head with a 10g weight in the front. That turned that max head into a beast with much tighter dispersion and that is is with a 115mph ss at crushing speed. I was shocked. Shaft is Tensei White 70x
@jasonpritchard5081 Nice, I agree with that and you never really see CZcamsrs or videos of people spending time making the Max the bomber that it can be.
Excellent relavent review Dan
Good review dan. I really like the look of this driver. Pretty good numbers too
Fabulous review, Dan. Keep it up. I'm in the market for a new set of clubs this year, so I'll be looking at most of the big boys, including last years Titleist drivers. The only club that will stay in the bag is my trusty Scotty Cameron Newport 2 Select.
Thanks Dan, enjoyed your review and honesty. Nothing released this year is tempting me to move away from my Mizuno STZ230 though..
Yes Dan, a great review for Callaway. Its so often the player and not the club !!!!
Hi Dan great video,I got fit last year for the original 💎💎💎,it's transformed my long game,I was a high spin player ,now it's way lower and goes straight 😜,won't b chopping it out any time soon,but AI looks amazing👍⛳
Great video Dan really enjoyable no personal negativity only positive pro activity keep it up the views will grow
Nice review Dan. I'll be interested what you end up putting in your bag now you are a "Free-Agent" - The World is your oyster as they say!
Great review Daniel, in the market for a new one this year, I do like the Qi10 max though…be good if you could do a whack off with the Smoke, Qi10 and 430max…be interesting 👍UP THE BUS TOUR😁😁
Great vid Dan💪💪 I've got the paradym standard love it 2023 model ... I will test this one later inthe year ...the original trip diamond did not suit me 101 102 103 ss
You struck it better than a lot of the PGA Tour pros, I saw some wild shots into the deep rough by some of those guys at the weekend.
Good to see you move the weight to see if it works, not many try this.
Another great review Dan while I like the look of this driver.
Again it’s about will it make that much difference to someone’s game,possibly not like all drivers so it’s really about if you want to spend the money.
They look fantastic
They look great
Been fitted already and i pick it up when i get back from holiday. Cant wait.
Happy days
Bought a new stealth 2 a month ago Dan used it once and love it the chances of me breaking the face are 0 so ill play it and see what happens
I had a fitting for the Callaway Max, I didn’t get on with it, didn’t like the looks or the feel of it, so tested the TaylorMade QI 10 Max, now that was much better. Thought it looked better felt better and must have been 10 or so yards further, so for me it’s the TaylorMade all day long.
Good review & I wonder if this could make it into your bag?
Dan just watched your vlog on the Ai smoke drivers with all these sweet spots .
My question is ,, so when you go for a fitting of this type of new driver and let’s say like myself my miss is left ,, won’t these preset sweet spots be obsolete? as surely these sweet spots are set behind every club face as standard ? .
So how does a fitting compensate for degrees in face and flex of shaft .
Would love to know how you see this !!.
And keep those Sunday Morning shows going , fantastic watch 👍
got the tripple diamond on its way to me now.. first 'new' driver i bought in yrs.. i always get mine on the club trader page for good deals
Good review. Will be interested when you put them head to head. Not sure how much difference we will see for us mere mortals. At the end of the day it will come down to distance and dispersion.
Waiting to test these as no demos in our pro shop yet 😞 though I think the qi10 max I tried will take some beating tbh
Watched a lot (I mean a lot😊)of the reviews on all the new releases with various handicap golfers and the callaway max and max d seam to give the best distance with forgiveness, ping latest is the most forgiving but is down on distance the taylormade is no different to the stealth 2 , cobra is also forgiving but further down on distance to the ping
Personally like the callaway but need to try everything to see what is best for me in the end
Great review Dan. I guess for me this year if I change anything in my bag it’s woods… so I am interested in the these, but which one? I remember a couple of years or more now we had fun out at Newquay and I got to try a Mavik and loved it. But will any of these improve what I have now I wonder, the TS1. At my level anyway.
Have you booked in to see Gilly next Wednesday, he has a Callaway Demo Day
Smoke max D suits you best imho ...aim down the right boom
Off for my annual hit of all of the new releases at Precision Golf on Friday. Not expecting anything to oust my TSR2 but you never know. I prefer this general look/colour scheme to the original Paradym but wish they hadn't used all those different fonts on the text. Looks like my 7 year old did the text design on the head!
😂
Our Pro tested all the new drivers recently out in Dubai, this was the only Driver that he saw a significant gain in distance. (Not that he needs it!!) 💣 💣
Didn’t hit the low spin cobra then
I like when you do reviews; I feel like you are so trustworthy.
I badly wanted the paradym last year but just didn't get the numbers
Looks very nice, but as you say so little gains on what’s already out there at a more attractive price now.
Nice review. Bring Bernie back we all miss him 🎉
😂 He hates reviews
Cobra had the fax 2 years ago. The called their hot face.
Good review Dan. It all nonsense what these company. Why do they not it a lttle more forgiving on off centre hits. Just a little.
Going to be interesting to see you change up the golf gear, Dan. What will you choose when left untethered to a particular brand? Are we witnessing a “build a bag” series?
Yeah, I will look at this for sure Gary, but maybe more around the fitting experience at each manufacturer 👍
I prefer the look of last years model better. Be good to see a comparison of last year's model to the Smoke AI.
I think the paradym X didn't do very well last year Dan 🤷
Love to watch to neutral testings
oops wrong written intro dan! anyway i tried the ai smoke and it didn't give me any better results than my epic max ls but tried the qi10 and that gave good dispersion and another 10 yards
In other words Dan this club has a very big G ,sorry ,I mean sweet spot 😊
These companies have to get rid of the transition between titanium and the carbon. Carbon on the crown is fine, I just can't stand seeing that hard line. Taylormade finally figured it out.
Have you got near to the mizuno max?
Yes I have, videos to follow 👍
Yes it already in the bag😂
👍👌😂
Evening all
love my triple D from last year. no chevron is really nice. totally a distraction for me.
and you need to get fit for Triple D. add some loft, and you'd have been a bit further
MO I
Most
Of
It's bollox ? 😂😂😂
Goal no 1 not to loose as many golf balls ghis year
Isnt it always the golfer and not the club mate? lessons better than new clubs?
Always lesson Fraser, you know from your Tennis days 😉
I think they look cheap and tacky, that smoke effect on the bottom is terrible.
