SIM2 Max $349.99Qi10 Max $399.98, each with its shop and checked date

TaylorMade rated both highest for forgiveness in their lines: each was its Max head, 460cc, in 9°, 10.5° and 12°, left- or right-handed. The SIM2 Max (2021) holds a 24-gram tungsten weight fixed at the back, with a carbon sole and crown; the Qi10 Max (2024) stretches a shallow head from front to back, covers almost all of the crown in carbon and adds a carbon face, and TaylorMade sold it on its 10K moment of inertia. TaylorMade rates the Qi10 Max's launch mid-high against the SIM2 Max's mid, and the Qi10 Max comes in senior and ladies flex as well as regular to extra stiff, where the SIM2 Max starts at regular.
