I swear they all sound exactly the same in this video
just a FYi your mic's picked up barely any difference in sound
I ended up with G430 ma
PING 10k sound was obnoxious in our testing. It's almost as if they've returned to the G425 vibe. So many great forgiving drivers out there, no need to put up with that loud hollow clang sound.
Ping G430 10k is the best driver "ever made" in the history of the world. And Ping knows it. Thats why its so expensive
what shaft did u use in the ping
I bought a “shop worn” Wilson Dynapower for $250 a few months back … compared to all the new releases, I almost feel like I stole it, and for me the performance was within about 5 yards of all the $600 drivers!????????????
Missing the TSR4
Really comprehensive, I love it. That said, I would try to normalize the swing speed numbers buy deleting shots that were slower. It would be easier to compare carry yardage and ball speed numbers.
Hi joe, Excellent presentation by yourself. Watched you when you were with Dan and not surprised by how natural you were. Been Loyal to Srixon and Cleveland over the years but would consider Cobra or Mizuno but the cost of a new driver is too high these days. Going to stick with my ZX7.
Joe is great. Loved him on Dan's channel.
I drive an old TaylorMade r7 and I just love the high pitch metallic bing.
Really impress with the PING G430 max 10k this year. Most forgiving, most consistent, and the distance looks good too with low spin numbers. Don't think I have seen anything like that before.
Great vid, will digest properly but you mentioned qi10 max as top consistency but your data shows the regular qi10 with even less dispersion?
I purchased the 430 max 10k and had to take it back the next day. I was hitting it 25 yards less than my 410 plus. I am guessing it had more to do with the shaft of the 430 because I couldn't keep my spin numbers under 4K. I ended up exchanging it for the Qi10 LS and absolutely love it. Way more forgiveness than you would expect and it sounds great. I was hesitant to even consider the LS model since my swing speed is only in the high 90s. Whatever you decide go get fitted.
You probably can’t go wrong here, but I went with the PXG, felt right and the adjustability it offers with the three weights allowing you to really get it dialed in while giving you the flexibility to “future proof” it over the years.
Mizuno St Max all round for me phenomenally forgiving and accurate driver, but I will be getting it in my usual 45” shaft
Great video Joe!!! I can’t see me changing from my g430 LST for a while though
Bet their all good ???? not sure how you can differentiate anymore but the one you like and get fit ????????
Great video, I have been without a driver for the last year so looked forward to testing all the new clubs. Had a fitting at my local club and ended up with a QI10
I went with the PING G430 Max 10k. I play my driver at 45.25 and went with a Ventus Red Velocore 5S shaft.
This combination is a great combination for me.
Thanks for the review.
The best Driver of 2024 is your old Driver still in your bag ???? nothing has changed boys !
For looks, there is no metal head driver looking good at all. In my opinion 1 Wood should be of wood and not metal. Sound is also so extremely different betwwen wood and metal, and I think the sound of wood is much better. To top it off is the size of current heads. Did they chop a bucket in half and covered it up? Most drivers now are so huge they are disgusting. I wish the "fashion" of clubs went backwards towards the wooden look and size of heads.
Confused how you are swinging the club and enjoying what it looks like on the sole? The AI smoke looks great on the bottom but that top and hosel looks terrible.
Qi10 max spins like a 7 iron, this dude is clueless
Listen guys there are so many options out there for the average golfer! You do not have to buy into these big name companies and their hype, I have been playing golf for 30 years and I have never owned a driver from the big name companies I am currently playing driver that I have had for 12 years I paid 125 dollars for it. And I can shot in the lower 70s with it!
I swung this driver slower than a few other drivers. Not sure why. Maybe head weight?
Ping 10k in New Zealand…………1349 of our dollars! I wonder how long it takes for the price to catch up to the name
