Trying A £699 Driver...Is It Worth it?
In this video Matt Fryer Golf tries out a £699 XXIO X driver, but does the large price tag mean that this driver will outperform the lower priced competition.

Boll and Rulge? Lol

@justinlemon8326 Год назад

Another honest review. Thanks Matt for the quality content.

@gordonmcshannock4610 Год назад

Good review matt. I think I will stick with my speedzone extreme tho was half the price new and has helped me find more fairways.

@cynt1111 Год назад

Just got a Wilson D9 demo 200.00 best I’ve hit the ball in ages. My PXG is for sale.

@charlieboylol527 Год назад

I got fitted with the X irons and 3 wood and utility and they are great ,but not cheap but they make the lightest shafts for irons and woods , thanks

@pascalabessolo5350 Год назад

What is more ridiculous is the automatic ball feeding on the T!!! Good content and review as always.

@adrianscott6005 Год назад

Great review - ludicrous price so it’ll be interesting to see how many they sell

@neilburrows6248 Год назад

Great honest review Matt

@sylvester2294 Год назад

Same Fellow who pushed the Orek vacuum cleaners....is selling these likely ....The last 5 years has seen little improvement in golf clubs. Its all about new and improved though the pga or usga regulates balls and clubs..

@dpd2k105 5 месяцев назад

Down to around $250 used now may be worth looking at

@will.m1110 Год назад

I love my Xxio driver. Ease of use is name of the game. If you find a used or demo for a reasonable price then snatch it up!!!

@stevoislookingforgolfballs8046 Год назад

I picked up an ex demo Xxio 11 3 wood that will never leave my bag, its the easiest launching straights 3 wood I've ever owned.

@JohnUssher-jk2qo 2 месяца назад

Price must be an import thing. XXIO are really popular and common here in New Zealand. Pretty sure the original retail price for this Driver here was about $1000 NZ, which is about 480 pounds, and way cheaper than the equivalent Callaway, Titleist, Taylormade etc. Golf Warehouse currently has it (being a couple of years old now), for $599. I picked up the same model 3 Hybrid for $199 NZ (down from $430ish) the other day.

@peterpedersen8398 Месяц назад

Same in Australia - and Matt, don’t forget the target market. It’s not competing with Stealth, Rogue and their successors. It’s designed for us old farts with a more moderate swing speed. I love mine and am just about to upgrade to the 13 X. I also have the woods and hybrids.

@Acsgolf Год назад

Nearly picked up an old 2018 XX10 for £150 the other day. Would have loved to have given it a go

@frankodozi5349 Год назад

It maybe more expensive in the UK compared to Japan because of the import charges when it arrives in the UK. From your testing, the driver seems to be a good fairway finder which is never a bad thing and at the end of the day all of these tests depend on the pilot using it.

@ydargybwen Год назад

Thanks for the honest review. I think they are more of a status club maker for people who like to gloat

@michaelplantarich3375 Год назад

XXIO is always super expensive and usually lacks in performance of the other mainstream clubs. Lots of women at the private club I worked at loved their drivers, but they never really tried anything else. I'll probably never own one of these clubs, even if I can afford it. Cobra all the way in the driver game 💪 love the honest review as always!

@markjames4926 Год назад

Could you try out the new honma driver as a comparison

@ubute Год назад

I'd suggest a further test b4 concluding what you concluded. How about testing a solid gold Honma Beres driver- the club with the golden feel.😆

@nickndp Год назад

Good video mate, are you selling your GC2?

@tezzlacoilz Год назад

Xxio has always positioned themselves as more premium. But also the thing to note is that they are specifically designed for slower swing speed or "average" players. So testing with someone with a decent ss isnt a great test in my opinion. They generally are designed to have more spin to get the ball up in the air for longer which is what older players generally struggle with.

@ginge5168 Год назад

What time are you there for there not to be a mile long cue on them steps

@nealfreeman01 Год назад

Don't know where the hate is on the price. TourSpec tried to sell me a Stealth with an Accura shaft that was 1000$. Not to mention the fitter asked if I wanted to hit the Autoflex and that combination was 1300$. Decided to go second-hand.

@davidfinn9828 Год назад

Funny that it is mainly for the Japanese market ,, but it is 1/2 longer, makes you think as the Japanese are not as tall in stature as us , all ping drivers with there own shafts are 1/2 longer and the cobras come in longer with the across grip , ping are known for the best drivers for the ordinary club golfer

@jeffnahass8373 Год назад

Great review. This is a decent driver. People will buy this to show that they can afford it. A used M2 or F9 would do fine.

@sicario8503 Год назад

performance can also mean a tighter dispersion depending on what you are looking to get out of the driver. so in my opinion the driver performed well.

@adamseidel9780 Год назад

Considering that COR is capped by rule, meaning drivers literally are not allowed to go any faster off the center, the only attributes left to be advances are forgiveness and flight characteristics

@joshbrownell551 Год назад

Have u ever tried that pxg driver

@fatClyde Год назад

I like the review and it looks like a premium quality driver but I don't think it's fair to expect more yardage because you pay more. Obviously a human can only hit the ball so far unless you've trained as a long drive hitter. Personally I would never pay this amount for any club. But for the rich, I guess it's a nice addition to the bag. You must admit, you were hitting it awfully well AND straight !

@TheCjclaflin1 Год назад

The XXIO prime driver is around 1000$ usd

@FF04RDF Год назад

Were you fitted for it?

@philshield2027 Год назад

I feel prices are getting ridiculous now £700 is a lot of cash

@Adam-S402 Год назад

Its like Rolex vs Timex, both accomplish the goal. One is a status symbol

@SePhO11 Год назад

I think Matt should have compared it against the ZX7, see what else you get for an extra £300.

@kevinwood1722 Год назад

XXIO with their light clubs seem to be aimed at seniors.

@mikealessi7761 Год назад

Is the price of Golf Equipment getting out of touch price wise? This drivers being the biggest culprit of it @ $694.20 USD for this one.

@stuffnsuch631 Год назад

Is it any better than a 200$ driver?

Id rather spend the money on lessons to be honest Cheers

@robertmiller6910 6 месяцев назад

You need your head examined if you pay that for 1 club. Insane why people get trapped into this. Fix your swing with a 2nd hand driver if you fancy a change. Jst sayin 🤷

@graemesmith3117 Год назад

Sorry that’s ridiculous pricing!

@bryceborcovsky8979 Год назад

Way to overpriced if my ball flight was bullet straight and I was gaining an extra 20 yards of carry then maybe it might be worth considering a fitting, but I am so happy with my SIM2 . Another great video Matt I always enjoy your coaching tips especially short game stuff 👍

@Mizman76 Год назад

😆you say that is overpriced when you have a SIM2?!?! You are fooled. A 5yr old driver performs EXACTLY the same as this XXIO and also your SIM2. It's a certain lofted face with exactly the same COR numbers. Shaft may be better but the clubheads have been maxed out for well over a decade. Sorry to burst your bubble but it's the truth. Your Sim is no better than a 2016-17 M2 that you could get for a third of what your Sim2 cost. Don't fall for the marketing ploys they feed you.

@lexxwhite747 Год назад

@larsakerlund4328 Год назад

When will you pro’s talk about shaft instead of heads? Is there no money in it for you? Correct shaft with maximal flex to your swing is way more important then any clubhead. Thats basic!

@twinpixelatedvision4612 Год назад

What do you mean? Matt has made like 4 videos on shaft selection just this year. Graphite vs steel, shaft flex options, shaft weight options, and a highlight on the Fujikura Ventus shafts.

@larsakerlund4328 Год назад

@@twinpixelatedvision4612 you might be correct. But still.. it’s not close to how many reviews of different brands for clubheads. I don’t mean to disrespect anyone just make a point of what really matters. Sorry if you got hurt!
