Loved it

“I'm honestly blown away by this thing.”

A £300 mini driver that matches or beats the big-name minis on distance, sound, and looks while costing roughly £180 less, with his only real reservation being that Tour Edge's D2C model in the UK means almost nobody can try one before buying.

+ the facts · 6 pros · 3 cons
  • +Price: around £300, roughly £180 less RRP than big-name mini drivers, with premium shaft options like Ventus included
  • +Pyramid full-face tech held ball speed on toe, heel, and low-face strikes in his testing
  • +Consistent distance: repeated 250-262 yard drives with tight front-to-back dispersion
  • −Availability: essentially direct-to-consumer in the UK with no fitting centers or stockists, so you can't try before you buy
  • −No movable weight to shift mass forward and reduce spin
  • −Still £300, cheaper than rivals but not cheap

For: Golfers wanting a mini driver as a driver/3-wood alternative without paying £400-500 big-brand prices

Liked it

“I like the consistency of that on the misses”

Forgiving and consistent on mishits with higher spin that helped it hold greens off the deck, though that spin cost some distance off the tee.

+ the facts · 3 pros · 1 cons
  • +Very consistent, tight distance window on misses
  • +Higher spin helped it hold the green off the deck
  • +Liked the acoustics and feel
  • −More spin off the tee cost distance versus the low-spin models

For: Players who value forgiveness and want a mini they can spin off the deck
