Wilson 2025 Dynapwr Max Driver Review

High MOI drivers were very much the story of the 2024 season, with models such as the TaylorMade Qi10 Max and the Ping G430 Max 10k taking center stage. Golfers seemingly began to see the benefits of extra stability over maybe chasing that lower spin profile, and the category keeps expanding. Looking to get involved in the conversation is the Wilson Dynapwr Max, so let’s see if it is a match for some of the most forgiving drivers in the game...

With regard to the tech story of the new Dynapwr range, I would encourage you to head over to my review of the Dynapwr Carbon driver where I go into it in a little more detail, but in terms of this particular model, there are some noteworthy differentiators. Firstly we are dealing with an all-titanium 460cc head, and secondly, there is some inherent draw bias built into this driver with the flippable 19g rear weight allowing some adjustability of CG.

Looks wise I feel this is a giant leap forward for Wilson. The whole aesthetic has been massively elevated over every cubic cm of the clubhead in my opinion. I think the glossy finish has just the right amount of sheen, and the predominantly black coloring offers a very sophisticated feel that I don’t know if I’ve seen before from Wilson drivers.

In the playing position, the good news continues with a very unfussy crown present, only interrupted by a subtle red banner strip along the back/heel area and a tiny alignment aid on the top edge. Minimal and classy.

The performance also impressed me. Having done most of my testing at Saunton Golf Club on my FullSwing KIT launch monitor using TaylorMade TP5 golf balls, the overriding feeling was one of safety. Throughout all of my sessions, I found this one of the easiest drivers to keep on the short grass of anything I have tested. The TaylorMade Qi35 Max sits in a league of its own in that regard for me, but this would be very close to the ‘best of the rest’ title.

As you would expect from a driver of this ilk, the spin number was a little high for me pushing 3000rpm, but this isn’t a driver designed for my levels of swing speed (120mph plus). More moderate to slow swinging players will love how easy this driver is to get airborne both from a spin and launch perspective, and many will be pleased to hear that the draw bias is certainly noticeable. Maybe not quite as noticeable as the opposite (fade) bias in its sibling, the Dynapwr LS driver, but certainly useful for those looking to mitigate that slice.

The sound - whilst far from offensive - is a touch louder than the other two drivers in the range but that is likely due to the all-titanium construction in this model, and the accompanying feel is reassuringly solid. Another impressive model from Wilson for 2025. Stable, excellent looking, and extremely user-friendly. There isn’t much to dislike about the Dynapwr Max.

The Dynapwr Max will be available in 9°, 10.5°, and 12° lofts for right-handed players and 10.5° only for left handers at an RRP of £435 or $499.
