Wilson Golf is a name with some much history and pedigree in the game of golf… but they still are NEVER talked about when it comes to great golf clubs nowadays. Many would consider them the most underrated brand in golf. This is the first time I’ve hit a Wilson Golf club since the 90’s, so let’s find out just how good these new 2025 DYNAPWR golf drivers are!

10:00 Damn Good Drivers!
So, Wilson Drivers, the most overlooked and underrated driver in the game today. Many would agree with that sentiment, but I got to find out for myself. So, I have all three of their 2025 Dynam Power drivers, Max, Carbon, and LS. I’m going to hit them. I’m going to test them. I’m going to take the one that I think is best suited for my game out to the golf course, and I want to answer that question. Does Wilson make a great driver? Can they rival the big brands or is Wilson just a name that needs to stay in the past? So, let’s get into it. So, here we go. Straight from the box. I don’t think I’ve hit a Wilson driver probably since the ‘9s. Dino Power. We’re going to start with carbon. I mean, we know they look good. We hear it all over the place, but that looks really, really nice. Um, this is going to be really fun to hit. So, let’s just hit it. Wow, that felt awesome. That felt really, really good. Launch monitor didn’t pick it up. I don’t think I had it turned on, but gosh, that felt good. Whoops. That was a bad golf swing. Good ball speed though. 168 ball speed, 2300 spin. Just a total toe yank. But that ball speed is pretty good for a mishit. Cuz I think that’s what maybe mine and a lot of golfers hesitation is. We’re so used to the big four, the Titalist, Tailor Made, Cobra, Ping being like the drivers, the fast drivers. Can anything else compete, hang? Like they may look good, but can they give us the ball speed, the distance, you know, that the the big names do? Wow. Just solid. 169 ball speed. So, the carbon head is kind of the the middle of the line offering. We have adjustable weights front back. I think based on this, based on launch, maybe if I switch these, I might be able to get some better launch, some better spin. LS head, obviously the lower spin. And then the Max is the forgiving one. But for first impressions, first looks and feels, this is a good driver. Little off the toe, but it hangs on pretty good. Again, 168 ball speed. Last one. Let’s see if I can really step on it and see what happens. Hit that right off the toe. And look how damn straight that flew. Ball speed came down like crazy. 164. But just total toebanger. That was forgiving. Uh so speaking of forgiveness, let’s go hit the max head now. So max max forgiveness. Uh maybe we’re going to see a little more spin, a little higher launch, probably a little less ball speed because that’s what these drivers are designed to do. Be more forgiving, keep the golf ball straight for wherever you hit it on the face. The look is good. We lose that carbon that just looks slick and sleek and like really really good. doesn’t look like a forgiveness driver. It looks like a good driver. [Music] So, yeah, little higher launch, more spin. The sound is a little more tiny. You can hear that right there. Obviously, the carbon in the other heads is probably going to mute that sound and feel a little bit. It’s just dead straight. It’s launching too high. It’s spinning too much. 168 ball speed though. Not bad. [Music] Like the same thing. The start line is so consistent. 168.3 ball speed. Just more spin, you know, so the carry comes down. It’s not meant for me, but my gosh, a forgiveness first head that looks like a tour head. Feels pretty solid. A little tiny, but not the loudest or worst feel I’ve hit this year. There. I tried to smash that thing. 172 ball speed. Caught it off the toe. But you just saw how tight that line was. Pretty solid strike. Forgiveness. No matter where I caught it, you saw all those start lines. That’s impressive stuff. So now the LS head. This is the head that I would think would be for me. I’ve always been a lower spinning driver head player. We have adjustable weights. We have 12 and six. The carbon was 9 and three from what uh I briefly remember. Little deeper face, that’s for sure. The head has a little more curvature here. A little more compact, a little smaller. It looks really good. I think the carbon looks better to my eye, but that’s grasping at straws. That’s a really That’s a really good looking driver head. Lower spinning, so maybe not as forgiving, but there’s only one way to find out. It’s to hit it. Wow. Wow, that felt really good. 167 ball speed, 2,800 RPM spin for a range ball. Carbon reintroduced, so we’re going to feel like a punchier sound and feel that compared to the max. Wow. Wow. 168.4. Ball speed is subtly climbing up here. Let’s try to hit this one and see if we how the forgiveness hangs on maybe a a rushed or or harder hit. Wow. Holy 169 ball speed. I mean, look where I’ve hit these. That’s pretty solid. That’s really impressive. See, I lost that left. I kind of heel pulled that. Didn’t dive. Wow. 169.8. I mean, I can get it to about 170 171 ball speed on my gamer. I think most people would conventionally think a Wilson driver is not really going to be fast. It’s not slow. I’m hung there. That’s terrible. But the ball speed stayed up. The spin obviously went like this. That was just a really bad bad golf swing. Hit one more. Wow. 171 ball speed. I am very, very impressed with how these feel. Now I need to dial them in, get some numbers, share that stuff. So, let’s go to the studio. They look so great. They feel so good. Carbon and LS just feels solid and punchy. Max feels a little tinier to me, but I think someone with slower club head speed, that’s going to feel fast to them. And it sits really well. They all sit really nice behind the ball. Max sits really square. A lot of forgiveness drivers want to sit closed. You can change the weight to make a draw bias, but it’s not defaulting to just being a drawbased stability first driver. It just looks classic, timeless, and you can make it a little more draw bias if you need that stability and fight losing it, right? They just had this timeless classic look that I would have expected from a brand with such history as Wilson. Very, very impressed with that first impression on the range. Then I came in here and got the numbers. So, I hit a lot of shots in here. I just wanted to gather as much data as I could and get 10 good ones for an average to see what these drivers do with well struck shots. And the Max, you see less carry, more spin, more launch. It’s just not meant for some higher swing speeds. It’s not a head that is designed for me. But slower swing speeds, I think it’s really a special head because it’s going to give you forgiveness, a great look, and just so consistent, so straight. It’s just so easy to hit. It’s just not meant for me. Carbon or LS on the range, I could hit either. I could gain either. They both felt so good. In here, it was very, very similar. But if I began to grasp it a little deeper, I could lose LS left. That’s what I don’t want. I want to hit a nice fade. From time to time, if my hands get active, I lose it left. But LS, for whatever reason, even though it’s fade bias, and these are all at 9° standard weight, I could lose it left. But numbers wise, the ball speed, everything’s really, really good. The launch is higher. I always launch it at higher inside. I hang back on it. I just know that I whatever. But then we like dive deeper. We look at the shot patterns again. LS. Nice fight. But the miss, the miss with LS is not a miss that I want. The miss with carbon was just a little bit more of a fade. Definitely gave me a lot of excitement and got me thinking, well, if I just bring the loft down a little bit and switch the weights to put a little more weight in the front, little less weight in the back, that’s going to bring the launch down. That’s going to bring the spin down. So, I did that. I actually tried it with with OS2 and it got some really good numbers, but I could lose it left. But with carbon, when I did that, it was like no notes, just perfect. Ball speed into 170. So impressed. Like 8 and a half degrees, switched the weights. Looks great. Feels great. Numbers are fantastic. This is a driver I need to take to the golf course. So, I went out. I played 18 holes. Didn’t bring a backup. Brought this. As a gamer, I can’t say I was swinging very well. The first few I lost left cuz I did, not the driver. But I got a flow for it. I think I probably hit 12 drives out there. Yeah, I hit it all over the face. I was I was struggling. My legs were pretty weak after a week of running in the gym. There’s a lot of hands in that round, but the driver felt really good. And when I hit it well, man, it did what I wanted it to do. There’s a couple drives at Jack’s Beach where you try to hoist it over some corners and it did that. When I mish hit it, I hit it right once and I hit it left like three or four times because me
my body stopped and the arms went. The 18th hole is a great example of that. And that’s where I grabbed the B-roll of where I hit this thing across the face because if you remember the testing, these were all like pretty center for me. Like I was hitting them really well. Get out on the golf course, you’re not you’re playing golf, you’re not feeling it. Your swings is struggling. You hit it all over the face. But the forgiveness was there. I was still getting great distance out of the things. Obviously, my direction was a little challenged, but that 18th hole, I hit into the 11th fairway. I had 275 into the wind over some trees on that par five. Like, oh, hit driver off the deck and I flagged it. Like, it was awesome. Like the driver, I need to play more with it because I really liked it, but I was swinging really, really bad. I think what I’ve created here or what Wilson’s created and how I’ve dialed is something that could rival my gamer. Definitely, this is a driver that I’m going to keep in the bag for a couple more rounds. So, if you want to know how that goes, just like message me on Instagram and we’ll see how how it goes. But Wilson, these drivers are very, very good on par with what the big brands are creating. They look great, they feel great, the numbers are there, the speed is there. They’re impressive, impressive golf clubs. And it’s I think something you need to start paying attention to if you’re looking for a newer newer driver. Wilson Driver is really good. So let me know. Do you play Wilson Drivers? Have you played Wilson Drivers? Sound off in the comments below and we’ll see you next video.

Have you hit a 2025 DYNAPWR yet?
I have not hit the driver yet but I'm really keen. I have hit the irons though and they were very satisfying. I am in the market for a driver and fairway woods, so this one has to be on the list to try
I own the dp carbon driver, and the carbon 5 wood.. they are absolute BOMBERS. honestly, during cool and dry season, I would use 5 wood off the deck instead of driver bc of how much pop it has. I pulled my cobra ltdx 3 wood from the bag altogether. Also, my other brand 7 wood started chipping on the epoxy after less than a year, so I now have a 7 wood DP carbon on the way.
