TaylorMade Qi10 Driver Review: The driver Scheffler still trusts – and is now 30% off!

Scottie Scheffler still trusts this 2024 driver and was in the bag for his 2026 American Express victory. Is now available at some great discounted prices.

The review below is one I did in 2024. Since then TaylorMade have released the 2025 Qi35 and now the 2026 Qi4D. Yet, the worlds best player, Scottie Scheffler, is sticking with the Qi10 from 2024. A driver he had in his bag when he claimed The American Express title in January 2026.

Reading my review back now I can see some of the reasons why he is sticking with it. It is consistent, reliable and the mishits are not card wreckers. It might not be be longest driver but you can rely on it. Better being in the fairway than 20 yards longer but off line and in danger.

As the Qi10 is now an older model it is currently available at discounted prices and represents a bargain compared with other premium drivers.

But be quick, as there is not much stock around and once the Qi10 is gone it will be gone – apart from off 2nd hand websites.

TaylorMade has a new driver this year, the Qi10, which aims to provide the golfer with improved distance but more importantly, extra forgiveness. So how does it perform? Find out in our TaylorMade Qi 10 Driver review.

Straight away, I loved how the club sat behind the ball. I just wanted to hit it and see how it performed. For my initial testing, I used a Foresight Sports GC3 simulator at the Worksop Indoor Golf Centre.

Before getting into the numbers, let’s try to explain what Qi10 actually means! You might be forgiven for thinking the Qi is a play on IQ or even the QI (quite interesting) quiz show – but sadly, you would be mistaken. Qi stands for the quest for inertia, or to put in a more understandable way, the quest to produce the least twisting head for off-centre shots. The less the club twists, the better. In practical terms, this will result in your bad shots going further than they would have and closer to the fairway.

TaylorMade has achieved this by extending the boundaries of its carbon head technology. The latest driver features an Infinity Crown, characterised by a continuous carbon construction from the rear of the head to the face. This innovative design not only conserves mass and reduces weight but also enables redistribution to more strategically advantageous positions for optimising launch and spin. Additionally, the driver retains the twist face technology and incorporates a sliding weight on the sole, providing additional options for fine-tuning and customisation.

The data I collected using the Qi10 driver is set out below. Even though I tend to fade the ball off the tee, I do have a tendency to hit the odd shot left. As such, the data below surprised me a little in that not one shot went left!

The other interesting thing to note was that the peak height is about five yards lower than what I would expect. I play most of my golf in the North of England on links courses and can hit the ball too high when playing into the wind. A driver that produces a slightly lower ball flight might be more suitable in such conditions. So, even if the Qi10, for me, does not produce knock-out distance results, it might be a much better club for all-round play that can perform well in the conditions I play.
