I compare one of the hottest 2024 launches TaylorMade Qi10 Driver against the 2023 Stealth2 Driver in a head to head battle to see if the new version is better!! I compare looks, feel, technology and of course performance.
This new driver from TaylorMade is one of many golf launches along with Cobra Dark Speed, Callaway Ai Smoke, Ping G430 Max 10K to name a few.

Thanks your your honest revieuw. Makes clear that i am keeping my stealth2, i see no reason to change it to the QI10.

@TenPester 6 месяцев назад

I put the demo Qi10 standard up against my TSi3 and a used Stealth2 in the shop, and both TM drivers flew so much higher than my TSi3, but weren't any better on dispersion. Comparing them directly with a titanium faced driver, and they both felt like they were made of plastic. I hit one freaky high toe with the Qi10 and it went 34 yards left. I thought it was never going to land.

@cleveland2022 6 месяцев назад

lol. Yep I am going to test Titleist drivers this summer. Was not a fan of either Stealth. The Qi10 is a sharp looking club, but i have heard of people having issues with faces pulling off the head with the Carbon Faced Drivers, with Stealth and Stealth 2. I see what you did with your screen name😅

@davidfletcher6836 6 месяцев назад

@douglasgardner4004 6 месяцев назад

I'm still playing the Sim 2 Max. I see the same characteristics as you see with the Qi10 in that off center strikes can spin up quite a bit. Makes for a bit more dispersion than I'd like. Not seeing that the Qi10 is going to be a substantial improvement.

@floodj3230 6 месяцев назад

I am on my 3rd head. I purchased the stealth Plus last december, it cracked and they were out so they shipped me a the stealth 2 +. That one cracked and they replaced it again. Honestly I really like how it feels and I get a lot of distance out of it. It's not the most forgiving driver I have hit for sure. Maybe I if this one cracks I will get shipped the Qi10 :)

@Yea1234yea 6 месяцев назад

I hit the IQ10 today, and I can say with the weight all the way to the draw side (in the LS) it feels a lot more stable. And I was still able to hit a draw with it so idk I got +10 ball speed from switching. I like it 100% recommend

@nealfreeman01 6 месяцев назад

Great video... Thoughts on a video of testing that MOI that PIng and TM is pushing... Get a shaft of your choosing with the same weight but different flexes (I.e. Ventus blue 6X,6S,6R). If the marketing of the highest MOI is what they are pushing, then regardless of shaft flex, they should all go straight, just the launch conditions should be affected.

@MichaelNewtonGolf 6 месяцев назад

These 10k drivers won’t cure swing faults, slight miss hits will stay straighter than normal BUT if the path & face relationship are a long way apart then your still going to miss fairways.

@alanglenn1867 6 месяцев назад

When I saw the heat pattern on the face of each driver, I knew I was in trouble. Isn't one of the claims of the new Qi10 that it is more forgiving? Maybe try to hit a few off center mass on each to see if there is any real difference. Maybe bring your dad in to hit a few. Just kidding, but your swing is probably in the top 5% of all golfers. Other than getting out and hitting it myself (still a foot of snow on the ground) how can I tell if this new head is better than the Stealth 2 for a slower, less consistent swing? I do appreciate your efforts and enjoy watching your reviews.

@golfhawk18 6 месяцев назад

I have hit both. Qi10 is clearly more forgiving and generates slightly more ball speed. Qi10 looks better too.

@craigs19721972 6 месяцев назад

@tekepenguin1981 6 месяцев назад

Honestly these pure analytical reviews in 2024 are becoming pointless. The difference in numbers are so marginally small, you can go with any quality brand and get similar results. The look and feel of the club is 100% a personal choice and will instill the most confidence to hit better shots. With that being said I am also most looking forward to the callaway AI Smoke. This taylormade is a 7/10 in the looks, and it wouldn't be there if it wasn't for the "infinity crown."

@gdo3510 6 месяцев назад

You’re either a fool, rich, or just love trying new clubs. If you care about getting bang for your buck, buy used driver.

@scottw9267 6 месяцев назад

@gdo3510 that would generally be an accurate statement, but I'm surprised at the forgiveness testing I've seen in youtube for thr smoke. U have guys hitting heal bangers or balls way out on the toe only losing 1 or 2 mph ballspeed.

@Bech285 6 месяцев назад

@@scottw9267 That's the same with the Qi10 Max and the Ping Max. The difference is so small, that you should pick on what you like the most. I'm going in for a fitting February 6th and honestly I doubt I'll see much improvement over my Sim2 Max. That driver is so steady

@scottw9267 6 месяцев назад

@Bech285 except those are testing worse on ball speed and spin and are flying in weird windows compared to predecessors on flush shots. (Meaning ping 10k is testing worse than standard g430 ). The ai smoke is actually testing the same as paradym on center strikes and testing great on off center shots. Not a callaway fan boy and don't buy marketing nonsense. I am intrigued that the limited youtube testing does show what the marketing says though. TM and Pings offerings have testers like txg already saying that those clubs are forgiving but that's it. I saw another test that the qi10 needed to be lofted down to 8 to get the testers typical spin pattern with a 10.5 deg TM. Again, the small amount of testing around doesn't indicate that those super moi drivers are the same as the smoke. But maybe callway paid for the testing and it's all made up.

@wes9588 6 месяцев назад

Unless you’re at >105 mph swing speed, AND assuming you’ve been fitted properly (essential!!) I just don’t see a reason to change up. Same same. Get a six pack of lessons. Same dough. Just my two cents.

@rk-ez6ch 6 месяцев назад

Needless upgrade from Stealth 2 unless TaylorMade made the Qi10 with improved durability,but they don't mention it..maybe because they don't want to admit the weakness of the stealth 2. I have a stealth 2 plus, 4 months old, blew the sole out!

Till today i gets what I expected always from you, s neutral, fair and competent review of golf parts. It seems that'll your intention is true information and not smelling a hyped product or brand. Thanks therefore! But i hope the day is will comeback ans i win a set of nice looking bladed irons on any yt channel - maybes you do some days a give away video?

@chrisgilligan4968 4 месяца назад

Those spin numbers look significantly off - and are affecting both your carry, and your total numbers. With 111 club head speed and 163 ball speed you should be seeing carry distance in the mid 280's and total distance around 300+. With your delivery, there isn't a chance that you're putting almost 4000 rpm of backspin on the ball. You should consider upgrading your setup to a GC-Quad launch monitor.

@brentwoods4802 5 месяцев назад

Conclusion: in the hands of average golfers with a far more erratic strike pattern than Michael, there is zero reason to “upgrade” every year. It’s all gonna come out in the wash so similarly it won’t have any real world effect on scores. TM and Callaway are in the churn and burn business. It’s what they do. Don’t be a sucker … :)
