Was in the market for a new driver and saw this was the "most forgiving" driver EVER MADE!!!
Any real world experiences and not just youtube hype would be appreciated.

Bopper did.
Wrote down his thoughts.
Get the G425 and save some money.

I have it. It’s a very straight easy to hit driver. I had a tsr3 previously that had a little more speed but not nearly as forgiving. Had a 425 prior and the 10k is a little longer and straighter and much easier on the ears. Recommend hitting one to see if it’s right for you. There will be longer drivers out there so if you are chasing every yard there will be some that are likely better fits for you. But if you want a good all around straight forgiving driver it’s worth a shot.

It is very forgiving, but so is the G430.
Like I said in my review, the 10k is a really big footprint and wasn't right for me.
If that visual doesn't bother you, it will be a very straight hitting club.

went and tested it out and it womp womped its way out of my bag. Club face was too narrow making it very challenging to square up the ball without teeing it down.
Swung the Qi10 Max with XS shaft 65g and it was freaking awesome. Dispersion was tight and I got an extra 10 yards of carry on most swings.
Crazy part was the swing speed on those clubs. I used to get it up to 128 when I was in my mid 30s and it dropped down to 115 when I got tested for my previous driver Titleist D3. Today, I had anywhere from 118 to 124 swing speeds with the Ping and 115 to 121 with the Calloway.
I swung so hard once it broke the machine! It read 310 carry and a 354 total yardage with a peak height of 178 yards
I knew it was a glitch but It still made me feel ten feet tall

I have one. I've never been able to hit my driver straight so I never used it. (To be fair, that driver was a cheap POS)
Now it's my best club... and definitely forgiving.

I guess sound is subjective. I have the 425 and the sound has never bothered me.

430 max is a short club. Lost about 20 yards from my epic max and stealth 2. Very noticeable.
Super forgiving though.

i've played 4 rounds with mine and it's a cheat code.
Shaft is Mitsubishi Kai'li white 60x for reference

Im not sure if anyone was a big baseball guy but it sounds like the old school easton stealth composite bats. Specifically the orange and blue one. That was the best bat easton maybe ever made

I had to look it up on YouTube, but damn it ain’t far off at all

What is your distance like? Trying to decide between this and the AI Smoke

It is about 10 to 15 yards longer than my G430 Max.

Haven’t lost any distance and maybe gained a few yards. I tried most of the ‘24 drivers and it was the clear winner for me
