New release woods vs TSR

[smdunlop]

I am currently looking to get a 7W. As a lefty, my options are more limited. I was about to pull the trigger on a TSR2 7W but am very intrigued by the testing of the AI Smoke Max. Has anyone tested/played with both to give any opinions?

Tested both, better Numbers/feel with the tsr 2, BUT the triple 💎💎💎7w blew both out of the water. No loss of forgiveness as far as I’m concerned.

Regular paradym or the smoke one?

Monitoring… I have a tsr2 21* 90g D+ and a UW 21* tensei white 85x coming in the mail

Same situation. Lefty looking at adding a 7 wood. Considering regular paradym, TSR2, G425/30.

Had the TSR2 7W and really wanted it to work. Just couldn’t get any consistent distance or dispersion.

It also doesn’t exist if you are left handed. The difficult part for me is I want a deeper faced 7 wood to allow for comfort in hitting down on something and protecting against high on the head strikes.

Welp 🫠 thats the the 💎💎💎, but in your case i would look for a Stealth maybe. Couple LH ones on eBay that wont empty your bank account.

I’m a lefty looking at 7 woods, but the top two on my list are the QI 10 (first time TaylorMade has offered a 7W for lefties in quite a while) and the Cobra Dark Speed.

 

I’m looking for a slightly larger footprint (which rules out the TSR2) and a deeper face (which knocks out the Ping G430 and the Paradym Ai Smoke). The Paradym Ai Smoke Triple Diamond would be perfect, but they only make it for righties.

The Callaway top line/profile looks like s***. Titleist is clean/classic, and performance is incredible when fit properly.

I picked up a TSR2 16.5 last week and liked it so much I traded in my super hybrid and 4 hybrid for a TSR2 21* today.

Compared it to the new smoke 7 wood but I like the adjustment option on the TSR and frankly it just looked better.

Which version of the Qi10? Have you hit the either that or the Dark speed? I also am not a huge fan of the Ping look and feel. The things I would do for a Triple Diamond 7W in lefty...
