I played 6 rounds with it so far. After making adjustments to somewhere between lower and standard, the loft is more like my old driver. The club doesn’t offer any further distance than my previous driver (which was over 20 years old and made of titanium). However, it is definitely more forgiving on my missed shots. I also wish it made the loud smacking sound I used to get from my previous driver. Even when I have a fantastic drive, the Qi35 doesn’t really have the satisfying sound feedback. Maybe that’s just how it is with carbon fiber faces. Also on the negative side, the head cover is hard to put onto the club. You should also note that the adjustment tool is sold separately. I had to get used to the club placement at address. Usually I play the ball in the middle of the face. But now I have to play it more towards the toe. I also feel like the club’s natural resting position is with a little bit of an open face. I have to make sure the face is lying straight at address. The club itself is aesthetically beautiful. Not sure how durable the club is for the long run. I already see some marks on it.
