Awesome video. You and Ian Fraser give the best insights into equipment imo. Would love to see you try the 10.5 degree core model. Maybe kick that launch and spin up a tick. Can't wait for the fitting video!
I usually thoroughly test and get fitted for all the clubs I am interested in before I make a new purchase. Last week, I foolishly sold my Qi10 core model before I tested the Qi35 core model based on looks and the fact that I love TM drivers. Today, I repurchased a new Qi10 after testing and disliking the Qi35 core model. The Qi35 looks closed at the address position and doesn't sound or feel as good as the Qi10, in my opinion. It was a costly mistake; at least I have a beautiful new Qi10!!
It happens to the best of us. I had to upgrade to a stiffer shaft, not the same as your situation, but I went all out on my complete set without considering I would need to change so soon. I basically bought all my same clubs traded in the old ones for the same clubs with a stiffer shaft. Embarrassing 😂 but I got a new set of clubs!
You are like me as I can’t stand closed at address and drop the loft sleeve all the way down to open my face. Did you consider the qi35 LS as I would think it sits more square and has a lie angle that is 2 degree less then the qi35 core?
I’m currently gaming the Qi10 max and hit a lot of straight balls with it. The problem is, more than a few like to balloon up in the air. During my fitting, I hit the Qi10 standard further on average, but went with the max due to being enamored with my dispersion (left and right). My question - with the lower spin numbers on the Qi35 heads, did you notice much difference in your left and right dispersion compared to the Qi10? I wish they’d have used a similar color scheme used on the crown for the head cover. That space suit head cover is hideous. 😑 Nice presentation, subscribed.
I believe TaylorMade has figured out something that most companies don't. But just don't take my words for it, TaylorMade has made something more futuristic like Dark Vader. It looks so sickly awesome. TaylorMade has improved much more before than the previous year.
I tested my gamer GT2 with the core and LS Qi35. Numbers were pretty much the same. I prefer the feel and shape of the GT2 and Taylormade’s alignment logo looks like it’s too much on the heel side.
@ I mean everyone’s swing is going to be different but when I got fitted the two fastest with the tightest dispersion for me was the gt2 with a graphite design vf shaft and the dark speed adapt X with a Venus black. Qi 35 max was 3 mph slower and I lost more ball speed on off center strikes
For some reason the qi35 core feels harsher and harder to hit than the ls to me. The ls feels better and spins just as much if not more too. Very interesting

My Qi35 LS came in yesterday. 2024 Ventus Black X,10.5 head. I was fitted for this and it’s a beast! Also, such a great looking head.
Excellent presentation skill, you're clearly very comfortable in front of a camera. Refreshing to see, well done.
Great video, love the honesty and in-depth differences of the clubs.
Great video..Thanks for the informative review.
Nice video. Enjoyed it more than some of the other “big” channels. Your summary at the end … 💯
Mate hope you get through whatever health issues you’re going through. Be well 💙💙💙
IMO you hit the Qi10 9 Core (first driver) the best
Bro that LS was dead center every time even on full sends with by far the highest speed/carry
Hoping for a speedy recover! For the core and LS would love to see some numbers when you move the TAS weights around
Always the best reviews! You just dig into the data that we all want to hear and not getting over wordy. Class act reviews as always.

get well brotha, health first
Drop the fitting video asap! 😂 I’ll be getting one based on the results of that vid lol

Would you advise lofting up on your preferred model?

What if you put the weight forward in the core head?
I swing speed is 90 mph 11 handicap which head would you recommend.
whats your driver swing speed?
What's going on with your health if you don't mind? I lost my speed from 175 to 150 after COVID
Dude ….. Qi35 or GT2?
I tested my gamer GT2 with the core and LS Qi35. Numbers were pretty much the same. I prefer the feel and shape of the GT2 and Taylormade’s alignment logo looks like it’s too much on the heel side.
Ping 10K safe for another year 😁
GT2 is just the most perfect looking driver. Just simple and beautiful.
GT2….. it’s a 🚀
I need spin & i like the size & shape of the QI10 core
IMO the drivers are all maxed out so I’m gonna buy purely on how it looks. Sometimes I just want a new toy.
Game Qi10 max @ 8.25. Yes the head was big but not anymore the Core model stole it's footprint.
Let’s see a comp between Qi10LS and Qi35LS. Since the core model Qi10 beat out the core model Qi35!
Love your reviews...but honestly man, your shouting, just speak to the camera, we can hear you.
He is american what do you expect
That LS looks incredible and you smoked it. Total drive would be 10 yds longest.
another banger
This isn’t new, TM put this same tech in the SLDR. The name is horrendous.
I agree people keep denying it but this series is lower launch & spinning so LOFT up is the smart move for "Most" Players.
I like the qi35 but the gt2 ball speed/ forgiveness is unbeatable imo
It’s really not…. Every other forgiving driver beats it. Literally every one

what happened to your ball speed? you should be at 165+ and not around 150...
For some reason the qi35 core feels harsher and harder to hit than the ls to me. The ls feels better and spins just as much if not more too. Very interesting
they screwed up the headshape, the core last year was perfect.
Pretty low Carry numbers ya got there.
So the real answer is its a stupid name
Can you stop shouting?
