Phil Mickelson spotted with new Callaway driver (and 178 mph ball speed) in holiday video
At GolfWRX, we have a keen eye for things “out of the ordinary,” and in a recent video shared to both Instagram and Twitter, Phil Mickelson is spotted not only hitting his recently internet famous “bombs”—while admitting to “needing more speed”—(eye roll from every regular golfer trying to break the 140 mph mark when it comes to ball speed) but…
…we also get a glimpse of what looks to be the next yet-to-be-named driver from Callaway in the video.
Check it out below.
Wishing everyone a happy holiday season. Let’s all put in the work to make 2021 a special year. ? pic.twitter.com/aVO1eYlJk3

From the Forums: How are you liking TaylorMade’s Qi10 fairway woods?
In our forums, our members have been discussing TaylorMade’s new Qi10 fairway woods. WRXer ‘ace036’ plans on testing them in the next few weeks, saying: “from how they look from address and frame the ball is much more appealing to my eye versus my current Paradym fairway woods.” And our members have been sharing their positive feedback in our forum.
Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.
- Edwardsr: “I got fit into the Qi10 core model with Ventus TR Black 8X and it’s absolutely amazing for me.During the fitting with my 12-15 swings with it, it was the most efficient combo I’ve ever tested, tons of 1.48 smash and 3 or 4 1.49 smash (which I don’t think I’ve ever gotten on 3 wood on a launch monitor).”
- MiloMalt: “No complaints and so far only high praise for my Qi10 Tour 3 and 5 wood. I’m getting great numbers and a nice penetrating ball flight with great height whereas with my old TSi2 4 wood it was spinny and ballooning and short because of that.”
- courcy75: “The Qi10 Tour 3 wood I just put in play has been outstanding for me. Finally found something I like as much as the 07 burner tp.”

Phil advertising a Driver? – now this is funny, he wouldn’t hit a fairway that was 500 yards wide regardless of ball speed

Yet another driver Phil will claim is the answer and best ever (same thing he has said about the last 6 or 7) will have one or two good rounds and then be back to hitting it all over the place. Come on people if Callaway cannot make a driver Phil can keep in play what are the chances they make one the 15 handicapper is going to keep in play?

You do you Phil. As long as it’s still fun, stay on tour. Love seeing him tee it up!

Old man Mick needs accuracy, not faster club head speed.

Have to say I’m more interested to find out if they are replacing the Apex Irons line-up in 2021. I know they’ve got the Apex MB and CB’s coming but I’d like to know if there’s more coming to the PGA show next month.

Yes Apex pro’s, Apex forged and Apex “DCB” I think is what I saw – all new for ’21

The autoflex has been shown to be overrated.
