HIGHLIGHTS

TWIST FACE
The 60X layer carbon twist face is back in the Qi10 drivers with a new supporting structure on the inside of the head to further improve ball speed on mishits. The redesigned support structure should help to produce higher ball speeds and better distance off the tee than the previous Stealth generation.
INFINITY CROWN
One thing golfers will notice right away with the entire Qi10 line (Qi10, Qi10 Max, and Qi10 LS) is a new infinity carbon crown that is pushed closer to the topline of the driver. This new crown design covers 97 percent of the total surface, and helped free up more mass to be repositioned for added M.O.I.
NEW HEAD SHAPE
Head shapes allow all three of the Qi10 driver models to see a boost in overall MOI, but it’s extremely apparent in the Qi10 MAX, which pushes a combined 10,000 g/cm in both horizontal and vertical MOI, resulting in great consistency on shots missed all over the face.

Forgiveness
The Qi10 registers high on the forgiveness scale, but not as high as the Qi10 Max.
Price
Player Type
The Qi10 Max is designed for golfers looking for straight distance without being overtly draw-biased.
Forgiveness
The Max model features the most forgiveness of any TaylorMade driver to date.
Price
Player Type
For golfers looking for low-spin performance and workability, look no further than the Qi10 LS.
Forgiveness
Given that it’s best-suited for better players, the Qi10 LS has the least forgiveness in the line.

When the original Stealth driver was introduced a few years ago, TaylorMade promised that they were putting titanium face drivers out to pasture. With the new Qi10 series, they are once again committing to that promise.

The 60X layer carbon twist face is back with a new supporting structure on the inside of the head to further improve ball speed on mishits. The redesigned support structure that holds the face to the rest of the body has been engineered to flex more, a change that should help to produce higher ball speeds and better distance off the tee than the previous Stealth generation.

Beyond the carbon face and internal structure, the one thing golfers will notice right away with the entire Qi10 line (which includes the core Qi10, Qi10 Max, and Qi10 LS) is a new infinity carbon crown that is pushed closer to the topline of the driver. This new crown design covers 97 percent of the total surface on the top of the driver, and helped free up more mass to be repositioned for added moment of inertia. (More of this in just a moment.)

Other proven TaylorMade technologies in the Qi10 include the adjustable loft sleeve (2 degrees up and down), the thru-slot speed pocket for optimized ball speeds on lower face strikes, and “twist face” with asymmetrical bulge and roll for better performance on shots struck off the center of the club.

Carbon is here to stay, and there’s more of it than ever before, but as far as forgiveness and MOI are concerned, there is one more big change TaylorMade utilized in the Qi10 series: geometry. The original SIM was all about “Shape in Motion” to help lower spin and increase clubhead speed through aerodynamics. But the engineers at TaylorMade decided to make another change to the shape of the head with all three models, specifically the Qi10 MAX, to improve forgiveness across the board.
