Tour edge c725 all day
Fun Video, I would've liked a better parameter for the dispersion. Maybe the balls farthest away are not representative of the overall performance (there could be tight scatters with some very dispersed balls).
It would be nice to see a column for the ratio of carry distance to club head speed and the smash factors. Your club head speed is fast, I'm about 105-107 so it would help golfers to take their club head speed and plug it into that ratio and see what their potential carry average would be.
Did you actually test the krank with the other drives?
G430 10K should still be included
Hmmm thought the Srixon tested well for you too. But no mention for the max on accuracy or that the LS was the overall longest…
How's the Mizuno 230 Max?
I just had a fitting and the calloway elite blew all of those categories speed distance and forgiveness so it's definitely person by person
sorry but men's taste is so boring π everything just black and grey…
I take comfort in knowing that each and every overpriced driver mentioned in this video will be worthless obsolete pieces of crap youβll see on blankets at swap meets in a few years. πππ
No one ever reviews the KRANK π
I can't support Callaway with the way they are treating LAB. Just horrible and a very poor witness to the spirit of the game.
Tour Edge make great clubs at a great price. Sound and feel are sweet.
Gotta respect the massive amount of time and effort you spent on this video. Truly appreciated
Who decided to alphabetize the data by table brand? If one was to think about the uses of a table generally for this type of comparison for just a moment… You basically flashed a list by brand that was only useful if a golfer knew they were going to buy a singular brand or was going to pause and fix the poor layout.
Mizuno st 230 best value
Is your back okay after this?π
Can you just hit them all out the toe and tell me which 1 to get ππ
Excellent review. Very helpfull. Keep them coming.
Great video, love the information!
Srixon had a good showing..I hit the core model a few days ago..Ball jumps off the club..In a few days I am going to do a side-by-side with my current Black Ops..
Looks to me like the G430 10k max won, as I assume it is also a very forgiving club but not visible on your forgiving list?
Great video! When testing Titleist did you find a big difference in GT2 vs 3? See a lot more pros in GT2 vs usually a 3 dominant tour. Thanks!
Went into a fitting expecting to pay $800 at least, walked out with the c725 tour edge with a stock shaft option. Unbelievable for $400.
if you are smart you will buy a 2023 or 2024 driver you will save yourself three or $400 or pounds and you'll thank me later. You don't need to buy the latest even something up to 234-5 years ago is still fine. Don't get sucked in people don't get sucked in and this is not a criticism of this particular channel or any of the channels that review equipment but you're just being lured into something. That you don't need I bought the AI smoke for half the price and it's just as good as any of these drivers. Let's go back and watch the 2024 videos they were saying yay look at these drivers they're longer faster less spin blah blah blah.
Great video. When comparing the sounds of the drivers, would be better if you werenβt talking over the top of the actual driver strikes. I want to hear the pure sound, not muted in the background.
Considering that everyone while per hour of clubhead speed generates typically about 3 yards of distance, the swing speed from club to club. Here are far too inconsistent to make any of the final numbers validated.
