My ranking of the 2022 Drivers
Posted on 6/20/22 at 3:59 pm

I have hit all of them now, so here is my thoughts.
I use the Blue Ventus and the Red Ventus in these models.
Best Overall - Cobra LTDX LS Model
The LS model is just long while still being pretty forgiving, this is most underrated driver of the bunch. Head to head using the same shaft, I will put it against any driver in distance. While it is supposed to be a Low Spin version, it's not hard on you as a TSi3.
2A. PXG Gen 5
Forget the previous models and what you may think of PXG as a whole, this driver has plenty of power and forgiveness built in it. They cleaned up the crown and it's very appealing now and priced in line with other drivers.
2B. Ping G425
Same as the Gen 5, matched with the right shaft, it's long and super forgiving. very easy to get the ball launched. Ping's durability and warranty is always something to consider. One of the best customer service brands out there.
3. Titleist TSi2
Nice driver with good distance and while forgiving, it did not match the Gen 5 and the Ping G425 in accuracy for me. For some reason the shape dosent match my eye.
Callaway Rogue,
Callaway drivers always baffle me. They are always shaped the same way and they perform about the same. Is the new Rogue better than the Mavrik, Epic Speed or the original Rogue ?
I am always more impressed with the Callaway fairway woods than the drivers.
The rest, I can't get by that red face on the Stealth and the face durability issues if you pound a lot of range balls.
Mizuno Drivers are making strides, but I can't put them high on the list yet.
The ultra low spin models like the TSi3, G425 LS, etc certainly have their niche for higher swing speed players for sure.
Like Harvey Penick said, 250 in the fairway is better than 300 in the woods.

But 300 in the rough is better than 250 in the fairway

Bottom line, there are no bad drivers these days thanks to technology.
I ranked these drivers based on my personal preference and what performs for me.
I never owned a Cobra before and always thought that they were loud and tinny sounding.
But the LTDX LS sound and performance is top notch.

The new Titleist woods are sexy AF. Let us know when you hit them.

Bopper what can you tell me about the 0211. It’s on sale for $230. My sister needs a new driver and that price is too good to pass up.

The longest driver I've ever owned was a Cobra. It's probably 10+ years old and I dont have it anymore, but it %100 is longer than my current Callaway Epic Speed. It was also probably the most unforgiving driver I've ever hit too.

Played with a good player two weeks ago, he routinely qualifies for the Houston Amateur Championship, he recently got fitted into the Cobra. I was surprised when I saw it, he said he tested every driver available and the Cobra was the longest and had the smallest dispersion pattern for him.

Not much experience with the 0211 driver, my neighbor has one and loves it with the Blue Riptide shaft. A little less adjustability, but a very solid club. Can't beat the price for a new driver.
My 0211 7 wood is great and very solid.

I just tried everything on the market for low handicap players and I fitted best for the stealth+. My swing speed increased 5 mph with the all carbon head. I’ve had it for a couple of weeks now and I love it. I also love the more set up options on the adapter

Hey if the Stealth works for you that's awesome.
Finding a driver that you can trust and have confidence in means a lot.

The stealth is badass. If I were buying right now, it would be in my top 5 for sure.

The cobra is such a fun driver. I really like the ping off it.

Honestly this is the biggest factor IMO.

No one talks about Cobra but they make good to great stuff.
