Best Driver 2025: Average vs Scratch Test

We’re kicking off the 2025 Driver Bracket with a head-to-head showdown between an Average Golfer and a Scratch Golfer. 9 new 2025 drivers enter — only the best survive. Every swing is tested on a Uneekor Eye XO2 launch monitor at Calgary elevation. We’re looking at ball speed, carry distance, spin rates, dispersion, and forgiveness to find out which driver really deserves to move on. 👉 Drivers tested in Round 1: TaylorMade Qi35 Ping G440 Max Wilson Dynapwr Carbon Kirkland Signature 2025 Callaway Elyte X Tour Edge E725 Titleist GT2 Cobra DS Adapt X Srixon ZXi ⚡ Surprise of the day? The Costco Kirkland driver actually held its own against the biggest names. Could it be the best budget driver of 2025? This is just Round 1 — winners move to the semifinals, and eventually we’ll crown the Best Driver of 2025. 🎓 Want to break 100, 90, or 80?
