Testing this line of drivers and woods, the efficiency values they generate on Quad are absolutely bonkers but they don't sacrifice playability in the process.
Have the Hzrdus Black 6.0 in my TSR3, hit Ai Smoke just for fun the other day and could not get over how fantastic Denali Black 6.0 felt. Very similar performance to Hzrdus Black but soooooo smooth feeling. Can we get a comparison of those two sister shafts??
I've just been fitted for the triple diamond driver and the new irons. Wow is all i can say. Can't wait to try the fairway woods and hybrids. Best clubs I've ever tried.
For the first time in many years there is a Callaway fairway that could dethrone my Sim2 Ti. Great vid and a remarkable release from Callaway. Can't wait until we get the 3 wood comparison vids.
I got fitted at Club Champion in Brisbane, couldnt hit ANY wood straight, always way off right (consistently though). The SECOND I put that Max D behind the ball I already knew I would hit it well. The white lines on the face, the shallow head for confidence inspiring "loft", the framed crown, it just let me switch off my brain and swing and I crushed 3 in a row. I was slicing Pings (somehow), Mizunos whole lineup, Titleists, literally I think because their designs made me worry too much about getting the ball up or my brain simply couldnt visually place the head reliably where I thought it would go. Moral of the story, GET FITTED, its worth every penny and you learn so much about yourself and your game. I did driver and hybrid as well and not only got good stats of my existing Callaway Rogue Sub Zero vs Ai Smoke (30m carry difference 🤯) but I found I cant hit a hybrid to save my life but I can CRUSH a 7 wood... Now I have stats to compare not just to youtube but to UNDERSTAND what Im doing. The clubs themselves with the REAL shafts, as opposed to the mass market version of the same shafts in golf stores, might require a bank loan lol, but you're not obligated to buy the clubs after a fitting and the datasheets for your swings are PRICELESS. $250 AUD for what ended up being like 2hrs 40 mins of endless knowledge of YOUR GAME is well worth it.
I ordered the AI Smoke TD 3W yesterday. The driver didn’t give me any real gains once a minor tweak was made to weights and the sleeve on my Paradym TD driver. I did like the feel so I may look for a “used” AI Smoke TD.
definitely looking forward to trying these. Wasthisclose to ordering some OG Paradym after trying them last month, figured it was just too close to new release season. If these are even a slight improvement, I'll be making the switch!
Numbers look great! Saw on GolfWRX a triple diamond U version at 15 degrees which looks like an adjustable UW, are you going to get your hands on one of these?
Ian - hitting it all over the face shot pattern - dead center of the club face what do have tiger woods in the taylormade video with Scottie Scheffler out here great video guys just a hilarious comment
Love the look of the triple diamond, super excited for the Qi line. Did these feel more firm off the face than the Paradym? That’s the only thing I didn’t like about last years model, too soft off the face
I hit my buddy’s AI smoke 7 wood a couple rounds ago on the range and then again on the course. Literally couldn’t get it to do anything other than 210 and dead straight. I was blown away
Pay the 600+ victims … Nonce fc … do your talking at the end of the season when you’ve got some silverware to show , league cup already in the bag this year for us .. meanwhile you’s have been knocked out of league cup and Europe … we’re not out of anything yet ya clown 🤡
Hit it the other day at the range. Tempted to get fitted but it’s £400ish all in assuming a standard shaft. The previous model is half that… is it worth the extra?!
I had a fitting last Friday, smoke 3 max. I like to draw the ball, so I asked, "Could I adjust the lie angle? I was told you can't!! Which I still find hard to believe. He said you might get a factory lie adjustment when ordering the club. Which is a pain in the butt as you can't try it before you buy it!!! What's the sense of paying £319!!! If you can try it out first!!
@@kenny7652 I’ve since done a bit of research on it , Depends on the model and loft as to whether you get adjustability of lie angle , I’ve seen you can with some
The Max have a pretty special Heavenwood with a bigger head, AND a longer shaft as standard. I'd really love to see that one in action. For a guy like Ronny, holy smokes.
I love and support Callaway, but them ONLY putting an adjustable in the 3w (15°) and 3w HL (16.5°) is quite disappointing. The other “BIG 3” major OEM, TM, Titleist, and PING do.
Mikey was lit for this video and I’m here for it
Mikey sayin “aw aye” is brilliant great scottish slang 🤣🤣🤣 love it 🏴
Club champion fitting on the 17th and I broke my 3 wood last month now I’m even more excited to get this fitting
Testing this line of drivers and woods, the efficiency values they generate on Quad are absolutely bonkers but they don't sacrifice playability in the process.
Mikey def looks buzzed lol
It’s all that SMOKE
It’s all about that AI smoke between the holidays.
Crushing donuts and Canadian Cush! He is living the life!

Lol.. smashed actually

“I’ll hit the top of the shaft.”
“14mm in the heel. Oof. You nearly missed it!” ~ Mikey
I have the Paradym 5 and 7 woods, BY FAR the best clubs in my bag.
For the first time in many years there is a Callaway fairway that could dethrone my Sim2 Ti. Great vid and a remarkable release from Callaway. Can't wait until we get the 3 wood comparison vids.
sim2 ti is incredible tbh
Mike is absolutely hammered in this right?
😂

Awesome review guys. I was looking for an 11 Wood so I got the AI Smoke Max. Almost no one offers an 11 Wood.
Would u say the ai smoke is worth the extra over last years paradym.
definitely looking forward to trying these. Wasthisclose to ordering some OG Paradym after trying them last month, figured it was just too close to new release season. If these are even a slight improvement, I'll be making the switch!
Great review, could be time to move on from my Sim2
Numbers look great! Saw on GolfWRX a triple diamond U version at 15 degrees which looks like an adjustable UW, are you going to get your hands on one of these?
Do you have the link for this?
Tour only for now! Same with 23* UW. Hope it gets released
@@Citizensofthecountry I meant the WRX link. I was on there and couldn’t find it.

And just to think that this is just the beginnings of AI. Where are we going to be in 5 years? It's great time to love to play golf.
I hit my buddy’s AI smoke 7 wood a couple rounds ago on the range and then again on the course. Literally couldn’t get it to do anything other than 210 and dead straight. I was blown away
max or TD?
Can you do their new irons?? Thank you!!
Almost as exciting as a Kyogo Glasgow derby goal!!!

Curious why the sole of the triple diamond doesn’t have the forged carbon like the rest of the lineup
Hit it the other day at the range. Tempted to get fitted but it’s £400ish all in assuming a standard shaft. The previous model is half that… is it worth the extra?!
Are the heel strikes happening because of the weight of the adjustable cog? Does that weight move the CG towards the heel?
That would ba accounted for in production
Why is the sole on the triple diamond a different color? Is it a different material or is it just cosmetic or what?
material change
Is there a setting on the loft sleeve to make flatter
I had a fitting last Friday, smoke 3 max. I like to draw the ball, so I asked, "Could I adjust the lie angle? I was told you can't!! Which I still find hard to believe.

Depends on the model and loft as to whether you get adjustability of lie angle ,
I’ve seen you can with some
Looks like a contender for TM Sim 2 Ian?
Wow, he hits it smack in the middle and says good miss!
is the lie adjustable?
The King
dont think i have ever seen you so excited about a club very impressive
The Mikey and Ian banter and trash talk is taking this channel to the next level
The Max have a pretty special Heavenwood with a bigger head, AND a longer shaft as standard. I'd really love to see that one in action. For a guy like Ronny, holy smokes.
I'd love to see that in action for lefties ... yeah.
Lit Mikey 👍
We need an AI triple diamond vs ping g430 LST 3 wood video!!!
MORE drunk Mikey 😂
When are we going to get a Denali Review…that’s what I want to know!!
100% want to see this. Denali Black review
2 yrs ago, TXG fit me for Callaway woods. I need a 5 or 7 W.
I will try the Callaway Smoke at Club Champion later this winter.
Happy new guys..... Any giveaways😂.
Stay tuned to the channel! We've got some in our plans, love giveaways as much as anyone.
So your sim2 ti stays in the bag. Mine too.
Seriously...hard to be any of the sim line
Neckie???? That’s quite Tiger Woods feel from Ian right there!
Ian probably got the dram out. The Scot’s can handle their single malt
the funny thing is that I can hit the 3 hybrid just as far as the 3 wood.
PLEASE review some 5 woods instead of 3 woods over and over.
Mikey should get drunk more often
I love and support Callaway, but them ONLY putting an adjustable in the 3w (15°) and 3w HL (16.5°) is quite disappointing. The other “BIG 3” major OEM, TM, Titleist, and PING do.
Agree! I was going to buy a triple diamond 5 wood and turn it down to 16.5. Nope
Will one of these make into Ian's bag??
For a fortnight, probably
😂
Day 1 of asking if Ian is a rangers man since he wears a lot of blue 😂
I think Ai has taken over video doesn’t look real 🤭
Ain’t no way Mikey wasn’t blitzed but honestly it wasn’t a negative so💁🏻♂️
Ill keep my taylormade Rbz 3 wood…
Still goes further
