Yonex XP Driver Review

Last updated:

  • At a glance

  • TG Rating 3 out of 5
  • Owner Rating 3.5 out of 5
  • Pros

    Bundles of shelf appeal. Feels well balanced and powerful at impact.

  • Cons

    Didn’t travel as far as the feel suggests.

What we say...

Heavier head and grip combined with a lighter shaft creates a counterbalanced club that helps increase ball speeds.

The Yonex XP driver features the Dual Tungsten Power [DTP] System - an innovative engineering breakthrough that produces maximum power and distance. The newly designed DTP System, featuring Tungsten in both the grip and club head, works in conjunction with the Lightweight Shaft.

The result is a swing that delivers an explosive power breakthrough with the same effort, adding more yards to your game.

TG Tester Reviews:

James Ridyard, Professional:
For me, the crown colours spoil what is a nice head shape. It felt powerful from the sweetspot. Overall distance was OK, but off- centre hits lost a fair amount of ball speed.

Joel Tadman, Equipment Editor:
The crown design works for me, it’s bold but subliminally helps position the ball centrally. The head feels heavy but it wasn’t cumbersome to swing, it just seemed to lack help when I didn’t catch it.

    It’s a good-size head and I felt in control of it at all times, very easy to hit with ample forgiveness on offer. Very impressed with this, certainly in my top five performers.

    Looks really cool, but I didn’t get the distance I was hoping for, perhaps because my spin numbers were quite high.
