If you’re a bomber off the tee with a fast swing speed, you need a low-spin driver. Fortunately for you, we identified the best drivers for low spin among all the new drivers for ClubTest 2025.
But why would you need a low-spin driver? As swing speeds and ball speeds get higher, the effect of spin on your tee shots increase. The result? Drives flying all over the course. But low-spin drivers are designed to minimize spin to help your drives go straighter. With the help of player testing conducted at Scottsdale, Ariz., we determined eight best new drivers that put a focus on low spin.

THE BASICS: Rounding out the Callaway Elyte driver lineup is the Elyte Triple Diamond, which is geared toward better players. While Triple Diamond models have on Tour since 2018, the Elyte version features a slightly smaller (450 cc) profile and glossy carbon crown compared to the rest of the lineup, which has a matte finish. The Triple Diamond has front and rear adjustable weights which can be used to dial in launch and spin characteristics.

PLAYER TESTING TAKEAWAYS: “Topline not that appealing, shine not great. Sound is nice. Feel was clean off the face.” – Chad Nading (+1.5-handicap) on the Callaway Elyte Triple Diamond driver

THE BASICS: Designed for golfers with faster swing speeds, the Cobra DS-Adapt LS model reduces spin off the tee while offering greater shot-shaping versatility. According to Cobra, the LS features the most advanced aerodynamics in the DS-Adapt line, thanks to its raised rear section, higher crown peak, and new heel aerodynamic shaping. It also boasts the most compact address profile of the four models (445cc), along with three adjustable weight ports for fine-tuning any kind of shot shape.

PLAYER TESTING TAKEAWAYS: “This driver had the best numbers across all categories. It’s a pretty club, I love the look. Clean. Impact-wise, it’s very good. Good sound and good feedback off the face. I got a 4,000 rpm spin rating and the ball stayed on the grid!” – Chad Nading (+1.5-handicap) on the Cobra DS-Adapt LS driver
Mizuno ST-G 440
Mizuno ST-G 440 Custom Driver
$349.99
View Product
THE BASICS: To help the face of the ST-G driver better deliver more energy across a larger area the engineers at Mizuno utilize a beta-rich Ti LFS material. This titanium alloy offers up a 9 percent higher tensile strength compared to SAT2041 which gave designers the opportunity to push the multi-thickness face geometry further. The ST-G features the lowest spin and least forgiveness in the ST line and is gear toward expert players.

PXG 0311 Black Ops Tour-1
PXG 0311 Black Ops Tour-1 Custom Driver
$649.99
View Product
THE BASICS: The Black Ops Tour-1 driver’s compact shape helps to create a more low and forward center of gravity, which leads to to lower spin for faster players. But even with the smaller shape it maintains a large face profile equal to the standard model to help with forgiveness. Robot testing shows that the Tour-1 is the lowest-spinning driver PXG has ever created and spins on average close to 20-percent less than the standard Black Ops model, which when compared to the Gen6 models is already low spin.

Srixon ZXi LS
Srixon ZXi LS Custom Driver
$549.99
View Product
THE BASICS: Made for players who prefer a low-spin, mid-height trajectory, the Srixon ZXi LS driver offers added performance for golfers with faster swing speeds who want to avoid ballooning tee shots. Like the ZXi, the ZXi LS comes with a Ti72S clubface and two adjustable weights — but in this model Srixon has positioned the weights behind the face and toward the rear of the clubhead to allow golfers to dial in a more specific spin rate.

TaylorMade Qi35 LS
TaylorMade Qi35 LS Custom Driver
$649.99
View Product
THE BASICS: To design the Qi35 drivers, TaylorMade designers started with what’s called a “mood board” of images they wanted to shape the look of the new line. For Qi35, the mood board included an F-22 Fighter Jet, an exotic yacht, a Lamborghini and several examples of “point to” features — and all of these ideas culminated in specific features of the Qi35 drivers. The Qi35 LS is a low-spin option designed for Tour players and expert amateurs.

Titleist GT4
Titleist GT4 Custom Driver
$649
View Product
THE BASICS: The Titleist GT4 (8, 9, 10 degrees) is designed for golfers seeking to shed spin. When the heavier 11-gram weight is situated in the front, launch and spin are reduced. If the numbers dip to uncomfortable levels, simply place the 3-gram weight in the same location and place the heavier weight in the rear to increase launch and spin. Similar to previous 4 models, the head is slightly smaller at 430cc.

Wilson Dynapwr LS
Wilson 2025 Dynapwr LS Custom Driver
$549.99
View Product
THE BASICS: The Dynapwr LS driver is the most compact driver in Wilson’s new Dynapwr lineup at 445cc, designed as a fade-biased driver to help better players eliminate the left side of the golf course. The shaping of the LS was refined with a raised skirt and a curved crown to make the clubhead more aerodynamic, allowing faster clubhead speeds. Like all the other drivers in the Dynapwr family, the LS features a 6-way adjustable hosel, but unique to the LS and Carbon models are front and back adjustable weights to dial in launch and spin. The LS has the heaviest movable weights (6g and 12g standard) allowing for the greatest CG movement.
