Rogue ST Max driver review

DonM

Mini review. I bought a 12d with Tensei AV Blue 55 R. It measures 14d, so I turned it down 1 degree.

They say it’s slightly draw biased. For me it definitely is draw biased. It wants to go left. Nothing to the right. They also made a draw version, so that must go even more left.

Sound and feel is just lovely.

I think it’s 10+ yards longer than my M4. I was getting to places beyond my normal. But I’ve just improved my driving, so I need to double check with the M4. The ball flight with the Cally definitely looks stronger and longer. Like less spin.

Because of it wanting to go left, I think I will be sending it back. Trying to figure out what’s next. I want the 10 yards but not the lefts.

DonM Sound and feel is just lovely.

All the "Jailbreak" design Calllys sound and feel awesome IMO. That frame design was a good move. I'm gaming an older Epic right now and love it.

Don, put 5 grams of lead tape out on the toe and try it. Sounds like you like the club, try to make it work. If you don’t have any tape, duct tape a few nickels out on the toe and see if it works before you buy lead tape.

I have the same head in 10* with same Tensei Blue 55 R and it does like to turn over. With Xcaliber Avalon 7S and a few grams of lead tape towards the toe it's mostly straight. I probably should have traded the Epic Max LS for the Rogue ST LS ,but I went with the Max for more forgiveness.

KCee My miss is left, sometimes.
I've played the Ping Max, Cobra Max, Callaway Epic Max, maybe any Max head there was, and still have the Mavrik Max. (I used the same shaft in all of them, btw.)
None went left....on it's own.

Jus' sayin'.....😉😲.

Yeah it's likely my swing lately. The Ping G400 SFT almost never went left for me, but I always had a fairly stout shaft in it. Still the Rogue Max does seem to have some noticeable draw bias to it.....although I can still hit any other bad shot with it.

Yep. I have one in my 'collection' also and found it fairly neutral with the right shaft & weighting.
Nice driver, fun to hit.

The cut away of the driver on the callaway website looks fairly neutral in the weighting department. If you turn it down in loft a little more it might open the face more..

DonM

backinit I have it at -1, that's as far down as it can go. When I did that, I saw no change in direction, only in launch angle. Anyway, I usually do a good job of setting up with the face square no matter the setting.

Best Rogue setup I've tried is with the Graman UL440.
