TaylorMade Qi4D Driver Review - It's HOT!

Key Takeaway
At first with the stock shaft I was not convinced I would like this over my Ping G440K driver but after a shortened fitted shaft it is now my gamer.
On-Course Experience
First off the main thing here is that I have a fairway finder shot off the tee with this driver and shaft combination. With the KBS PGW 70 stiff shaft this thing is money. Trottie told me "exit low and exit left" for a low trajectory fading shot that is teed down and I don't see myself replacing this driver if the next one cannot replicate this.
I tried this exact same shot with my Ping G440K with a Ventus Blue 6S shaft and for some reason it was harder for me to pull off. The Qi4D is also a little hotter off the face resulting in more distance for me personally.
I will say driver is a strength in my game and the Qi4D is a nice complement to it. For my next driver giving up this fairway finder shot is non-negotiable so in order to swap it out for something else it has to be able to execute the fairway finder and give me MORE distance. We will see what the next wave of new drivers bring!
