So 2024 seems to be the year of forgiveness and mauno have joined the party with a St Max 230 driver but is it as good as the offerings from the other brands we’re going to take a look in this Video that is bombed wow that looks fantastic on that Bly So maximum Moi maximum stability that’s miso’s message with this new st230 driver so we’re hearing this word Max the Forgiveness story definitely with a lot of the brands this year and Muno have joined the party with this uh option so what makes it a Max it’s a lower profile which obviously allows

Them then to stretch the back further away from the face so looks bigger but obviously it’s still within the 460cc size limitations that they can have loads of carbon showing in we’ve got that cortex chain we’re going to talk a little bit about slightly different Club

Face as well but let’s get testing it let’s get the first one hit so first impressions as always down by that golf ball it looks quality Muno makes some great stuff it’s a very much a Muno Drive we’ve seing that similar look to what we’ve seen in previous models the

Dark glossy front section the carbon gray shining through on the back section of the drive it’s got a little bit of a blue tipping in the back of the club the St Max logo inside heel looks great sits incredibly Square behind the board which is good just the runw logo on the

Top okay little bit low on the face on that opener it shot out like a bit of a bullet there to be honest uh decent Club head speed 113 162 ball nice little run out so so how have I got this set up I’ve got my Fuji Ventus velor in a 6X

Cut at 45 and A4 now interesting Muno drivers in the past have always been a standard length now the Max has an exception that their standard length in this if you to buy it is coming in at 45 and 3/4 so they’re adding the length there because they’re saying the

Stabilities there in the head that allows them to add the length to keep the accuracy which is an interesting concept but I’ve got this at my plane length as to say 45 and A4 that’s a solid hit that’s a Super Ball flight that’s good ball speed I struck that one obviously very well

There which helps with the ball speed 163 12 launch 2 one spin 277 carry that’s really good numbers so I think as we mentioned with these other brands and we’re seeing this Max had this sometimes some of them are hitting that 10K Moi Mark is that obviously putting more

Weight in the back and that’s exactly what mauno are doing here as well you probably see there’s a weighted screw at the back but then there’s also like a little bit of a bulgy weight pad at the back of the driver as well which is 54

Gams of weight is going to be put in the back now they save that weight from a 40% more carbon in the club so a lot more Carbon on the sole I’ve got it on the crown as well that’s saving that weight which is then going to be added

As far back with his stretched out head as they possibly can get it and that’s what’s going to help with this stability thisi number and what basically is a resistance to twist on your Miss Center hits little bit of a left to right fade

On that one but it’s going to be hit in a fairway quite nicely again good ball speed sometimes there’s a sacrifice of that what we’ve seen over many years I think in the more weight we put the back of the driver typically the higher the launch and the higher the spin and

Obviously that isn’t a great recipe for adding some extra yards to to your t- shots but looking straight away on those shots even with that little fadey one a couple like I think the first one was a little bit low in the face the spin hasn’t gone up it’s quite a low spin

Which does help a little bit of trying to gain some yards as long as your launch is high enough okay that felt pretty solid as well yeah striking that lovely there 12 launch again great Spin and just touching or just running short of 300 so for Muno are saying here two big talking

Points that are changed in previous models with the new Max driver we’ve got this Forge tifs Club face which basically is 9% stronger in its structure so they can have that multiple thickness in the club face there which basically means one those Miss hits you’re going to get that

Ball speed up as fast as they possibly can across the club place and then we see this cortex chamber and we have seen that in previous models from mauno but this is now a deeper Channel straight behind that club face now in this St Max we have the stainless steel bar that

Sits in that chamber and then that’s surrounded by this elasta TPU I think they call it substance which is this blue section that we sort of see this is now deeper than previous models and that weight is now moved further towards the club face so it’s trying to put energy

Back into that golf ball again for those faster ball speeds but great looking driver behind the ball we’ got that black face let say that Carbon on the back back section of the crown does look very stunning oh right okay that could be a bit of a test on that forgiveness that

Definitely felt lower in the club face it’s come out low and you can see that launch has come out low ball speed’s pretty good on that low strike there look at that spin number it stayed low so even that’s come out low typically would see that gear effect kicking that

Spin would go up and we lose a lot of distance that’s just kept it going forward it won’t be as long as the others cuz obviously it’s launch low but as a m hit I’d take that all day long that’s a solid hit definitely seeing that or hearing that carbon sound

That carbon sort of feel coming through that Golf Club there good club head speed 163 look at that spin number there really low I can get that launch up in that 1213 area with that spin that’s when I maximize my distance and that’ll be the same for you if you’ve got low

Spin characteristics you make sure you get plenty of LOF in hand get that launch up so talking about that this is a 9.5 Dee head but we have got that neck sleeve adjustability so we’ve got 4° range of movement obviously going upwards and also going downwards as well

So two degre all the way up two degre on the way down we can change that uh L angle as well just to really work in your shot direction that is bombed wow that looks fantastic on that ball flight 164 good again wasn’t absolutely pure but it’s

Not a bad place to hit it 28 to carry fantastic excellent numbers solid sounding Golf Club solid feeling golf club and does feel very very stable I must admit just those M hits have hit there in that batch of shots obviously hit some good ones there but some M hits

There definitely holds its line and the accuracy is pretty good so availability wise in the max head we’ve got a 9.5 Dee which is available both right and left hand and then we’ve got a 10.5 and a 12° and those two loss available in right hand only so unfortunately for lefties

There’s no 10 and 1 half and 12 options oh solid very straight and price point wise this is quite nice actually from Mao tend to be just a little bit less than maybe the other mainstream driver Brands is coming in at 449 lounds as we currently are shooting this video

So some pretty impressive numbers there it’s nice and low spin as long as you get that launch up this will be an excellent driver the M hits seem to be very very stable so another great driver from mauno if you want me to put this up

Against um say the Ping 10K the tailor made 10K as a forgiveness element then just do post your comments down below let you know your thoughts and I will do that hopefully as soon as possible appreciate you for watching the video as always and hopefully catch you all very soon
