- TAYLORMADE SIM vs CALLAWAY MAVRIK! WHICH WINS?! We have seen the launch of the Callaway Mavrik, Taylormade Sim, Callaway Mavrik Max, Taylormade Sim Max and Callaway Mavrik sub zero... which is the best driver? What’s the best driver of 2020? What’s the longest driver of 2020? The Taylormade Sim vs Callaway Mavrik.. let’s do it... and let’s do it now!
I’ve watched a ton of reviews I’m not even a Callaway fan I’ve always been team Titleist but the dispersion on the Mavrik is world class.
Dispersion is down to the player ,not the club!
The Maverik with the tour ad shaft would look AMAZING!
Am I the only one who feels like I just watched Eric Idle do a club comparison? "This is just....that is.....I mean.....that's......"
Entertaining to no end as always
Took the mavrik on course today. An impressive head. Loved the feel and sound over the GBB epic, rogue and epic flash. Only had a stock shaft so I can't compare peak performance but the results were impressive
Love the comparisons and reviews. I would think the comparison would be Maverik sub zero vs. Sim, and Sim Max vs. Maverik as these two will suit the most golfers. Keep up the great work.
I don't see my F9 leaving the bag now that I've got the right shaft in it....appreciate the review as always, cheers
Great video. Sound quality is much better with the lapel mic. Can’t wait to swing these drivers.
Excellent review as usual. Driver heads are so fantastic these days. It really boils down to matching them with the proper shafts and which one folks hit more fairways with.
100% agree..... getting custom fit is the secret to getting more distance anymore. These clubs are all so good now.
Was about what I expected. As they say in Pro Football (USA).........on any given Sunday. Call it a tie. But I do like the Taylor Made head cover. For what it's worth. Carry on James.
Looks-wise, personally I would get over the color of the Mavrik before I'd get over that protrusion on the Sim.
Another day another video from James. Excellent! I prefer the Callaway name but the Taylormade looks nicer.
2 videos today! or....is today ground hog day and I'm just confused?
:0)
I like the orange.
Another great video! Would love to see a full "face-off". SIM vs Mavrik vs Speedzone vs Mizuno vs Titleist vs Ping vs Cleveland vs anything else that might be 'up there' in most popular drivers. Would also be great to see the same with fairways, hybrids, irons and wedges. Even just a compilation/ comparison of the numbers you have hit with the premium products from each brand? Keep up the excellent work, whatever you do!
Just go to a review of each and screenshot the numbers. Spoiler - they are all the same, buy on what looks nicer to you.
I have the Mavrik and the orange grinds your gears the more you look at it. It annoys me that it doesn’t have weighting like the epic flash. But you don’t lose distance on any part of the face for some reason. That weight on the SIM sole makes you feel like you’re sweeping the ball away which can make you feel more confident. Mavrik is a hyper active child.
Most underrated golf TH-camr
Appreciate that Steven mate
This makes total sense.... maverick came in second in TOp Gun as well
True and unfortunately Goose came in last
Love Taylormade game a M6 and seen the SIM. sticking with M6. Great video and can’t wait for the future content 👍
Would love to see a comparison between the SIM Max, Mavrik Max, and the older PING G 400 Max. Battle of the MAXES.
Great shout Joe, bring on the MAX OUT!
Bandit Baker 👍
Can't decide either ....just going to have to go try them
That Orange colour is nothing short of horrible . I’m calling it “Vomit Orange”. It’s like the day after a massive night out on the town.
I agree with you James about the sound - the Sim sounds better and it also looks better to me.
The Mavrik color scheme reminds me of the muscle cars of the late 1960s early 1970s in the US. It seems the dispersion is better on the Mavrik. Keep these videos coming.
Good video, James. The Mavrik color scheme will sell well in Tennessee and Texas, I'd say!
Hook 'em Vols!!! 🤣
No your spot on James the Taylormade looks the best by a mile
MegaStan316 which isn’t good for callaway because the sim is ugly on the bottom
@@Cornwall1888 true it is but from the top it's so nice and yep bad news for Callaway
It isn't close!
Lucky for TM that no one looks at the bottom of the driver on the golf course or they;d be in trouble too.
ORANGE ! ! ! ! ! YUCK ! ! ! ! ! AND.... THAT CLUB COVER ? ! ? ! ? !
(what is Callaway thinking?)
To be fair I saw the color choices on your earlier video today. A few of those looks fantastic! Too bad there's an up-charge to fix that ugly Stock Orange!
As always, brilliant content! Loving your channel in 2020!
PS: Thanks for doubling up for us today!
Lefty SoCal Golfer the head cover looks so cheap!
They're dropping the price $50 less than the Sim, and making it hideous. That way you don't feel as bad when you spend $600 to get the custom colors.
@@Joehockey1990 If they were truly smart they'd drop the price a bit on custom colors for people who get custom fit from retailers and other places like Club Champion / TXG! A bit of incentive for people to not just buy off the rack drivers could be huge for their business. The more people there are out there with CALLAWAY equipment that has been properly fit would have massive word of mouth impact! Hen your buddy is suddenly knocking it by you and hitting more fairways it makes you take notice..... You can't buy that kind of advertising!
@@chriseyre83 the head cover is extremely high quality shockingly
hit the Mavrik today and it’s a beast. Rolled 320 on a couple of drives...that’s stupid distance for me!
Look really nice Pete can't wait to see you try it out 🏌️⛳⛳👍
Yes brother! Needed this comparison, thank you!
Still can't get over the look of that inertia generator on the SIM 🤔🤔🤔But have seen a post from Callaway Europe advertising the custom shop stuff this morning so would be able to get over the colour thing there 👍👍⛳
I replaced my old Big Bertha with a new Mavric driver. I couldn’t believe how much more yardage I was getting on my drives. I guess new technology does make a difference.
James love your videos, keep them coming.
I honestly believe Calloway used the orange to keep the price low, and push those with the means onto their custom color platform. I personally look forward to picking up an unsold orange one in the clearance bin next season.
Nice job James. I'm sticking with the Epic Flash for now, but you never know...
WOW James I love every vid you do. Your so energetic and make all your reviews really entertaining. Bet it would be awesome having a round with you. Keep it up mate
I definitely want to try both of these drivers and I have to say that the Taylormade does look better, great head to head video
If you are fed up with your Harbour Town head cover I could look after it for you 👍
8:01 - that had to be a bit of a misread - the ball hit to the right on the screen but the ball started left on the simulator.
James, maybe sometime you could do a video on individual club makers? It would just be fun to see what they design, how it works, and why they have their own studios.
Two videos in one day you are treating us today James 👌🏻
I know, right ??
id love to see all the major brands get together to create the ultimate driver and see what they come up with.
Love the video. Be great to see a full comparison with both of these along with Cobra, Mizuno, Ping and Titleist
I wouldn’t buy either one of these. Waiting for the new Mizuno to see what that’s like. Never been a fan of Callaway or TM Good job on the review James. Your content keeps getting better and better.
Preordered the SIM, upgrading from an M3... hope it lives up to my expectations.
Jack Flittner doing the exact same. Can’t wait!
Great Video as always James.. Great work on the Trackman Insta yday aswell.. Your getting around with all the big fellas these days. Well deserved. Keep up the good work. 👍
Was hoping you would do this head to head. 🙌🏻
Me too.
The Sim against the Cobra SZ. Also the Diamana Black shaft is incredible this year. Maybe a review of the optional shafts that are free with each vendor that can make a huge difference.
Lovin' the GolfMatesTravel jumper. :)
James is a very likeable dude. Great content!
I'd like the Mavrik in the Sim colourway
Smash Factor!! Big improvement James :-)
Both Headcovers welcomes the ‘90s again..
Honestly I absolutely LOVE the sim. Not because I am going to buy it or have any intention of buying it. I love it because it allowed me to bag an ex demo M6 driver in pretty much brand new condition for £150.
I really like both of these clubs, but I really love the burnt orange of the Mavrik. Stop trashing it! lol
Well that's a tight race between the SIM and Mavrik. They are neck and neck in distance.
How come you tested sim max vs standard mavrik, surely max with front weight would be longer than standard weight back mavrik
Great review. Would like to see you test the Cleveland HD turbo. Seen it on a few other channels and it seems to be a rocket. Would like to see it up against the big dogs.
Hey James what do you think about doing a 4 driver test? The new sim and maverick vs a big Bertha Hawkeye and a taylormade r580? I’m very curious to see those results
Just curious what type of launch monitor are you using? And thank you for all your great reviews, it really does help before buying my clubs. :-)
Could you do a 3 way comparison between the sim-Ts2-st200. Looking to change out my 8 year old Titleist 913d2
Great video as always. I own a Rogue and I’m guessing there are others out there who hold onto their driver for two years +.
Seeing as Mavrik is replacing Rogue, a comparison video would be really beneficial. 👍🏼
It was a great video!
I suspect a bunch of people are going to buy Rogue drivers now that they're coming down in price. Your driver will have lots of siblings on the course soon.
:0)
Good call! Vs rogue review please.
kyriac05 kyriac05 mavrik is replacing epic flash
Waiting on my sim max cant wait certainly impressed with the numbers over my current ping g410
Crazy coincidence you and mark crossfields review of these 2 exact drivers are both 15 minutes and 29 seconds 🤯
James- Always curious if it is truly performance that is statistically significant that gets you to make a switch, or is it more subjective, or is just simply that you can and want something different? I guess I am asking what is the criteria which would get you to make a switch.
I play the Epic Flash with the green head color. The face is definitely forgiving for ball speed and yardage on miss hits. I am sure that Mavrik is equally a great choice. Sad the Mavrik does not have a slide weight though
We've had our differences in the past but I totally agree with what you say about the Callaway colors "Why do they do that" it's almost like they are trying to get us to pay another $100 to get black on the bottom rather than green or orange yuck. Callaway if someone wants orange or whatever color than black on the bottom let them pay $100 to get it. I think I'd rather paint the orange black myself. How about comparing these two with the Cobra?
please compare against ST200 vs SIM max vs TS3 vs Mavrik but try to use the same shafts or at least same weight.
Can you compare these clubs with the new Cobra SZ?
Wouldn't touch either of these if i had to change it would be the cobra sz going in my bag only because i game the cobra f9 and I'm that impressed with it. The f9 will be staying in my bag for years to come
Next year should definitely be the Super Hot Injected Twistface.
2 yards difference over 300 yards is less than 1% therefore we are choosing on personal preference alone. I like Callaway so that's where I would go.
The SIM reminds me of the SLDR and Jetspeed colour scheme.
Of course the speed zone. But also the new tour edge driver
Don't think you could go wrong with either club, be fitted for both and choose for your self.
Hi James, I understand why manufacturers bring out clubs every couple of months,but how far or further than 5/6/7 years ago do they go for the club golfer , irons all they have done is put a number 7 on what was a 5 iron and so on
Hi James... What are the lofts and shaft used on each driver?
Both nice drivers. Sticking with my Ping G 410 though.
Your blue shaft would look beautiful with the sim 😍
Mavrik looks a bit old school to me. it may be more forgiving but Sim definitely allows for more distance(speed injection and the inertia generator).
Should compare it to the Rogue
On the results page the 3mph difference in club speed and only 1mph difference in ball speed, is that down to strike locations or just sample anomalies?🤔
SIM wins hands down all round. Just need to convince the wife to let me upgrade my M1 driver.🤞🤞😁😁
No doubt
See the sim with the red shaft at the weekend and it looks shocking 🤮 really kills the look
Both clubs compare very well, but the SIM has it on looks alone. Would be interested to see the other colour options for the Mavrik. Really not keen on the Orange finish.
Thank you for getting a mic. It makes your videos better to watch.
Would love to see them against the g410 plus 👍
can you do a cobra speedzone extreme driver vs the maverick max
Why do you compare a low spin taylormade model with a standard one in the callaway?
you smashed the mavrik in the mavrik review by itself. much better numbers. 271 carry and 280 total. 2000 spin 1.50 smash. why do you think you didnt hit it as well this time?
Only thing that worries me about the maverick is that it could be a “Highway to the danger zone 🎶 “ and I try stay out of there
Still haven't seen anything to replace my m3...SIM is growing on me but not paying 500$ for fractional advantages if any at all
I think the Sim club head speed is a misread. When I tested it, the ball speed was the same as the maverick and so was the smash factor. But oddly enough the Sim gave me higher clubhead speed which led me to believe that the read is incorrect. 3 miles an hour faster with the same smash factor would lead to about 10 yards further
James I dare you to take the weight out of the Mavrik!! It should lower your spin rate. Please do it. And do it....soon😂
I didn't make the switch from M4 to M6 so bursting to try the sim asap. I've not had a callaway driver since the Ftiz tour. Seen to hit them left.
Great video yet again JR! Quick question- Are the adapters for both drivers compatible with 2019's models, or will I need to buy new tips? Thanks for the great content.
Sim is much better looking 👌🏻
Definitely compare the new Cobras
Great video
James! How about a comparison of the Mac Sub Z vs SIM. Also, Rogue sub vs Mav sub
I prefer the overall looks of the callaway but if you really can't see the protrusion on the TM from the top I would give it a try.🤔
Love the look of the Mavrik. And I like the name.
I'm not a fan of the "big dod of metal" that TM call the inertia generator.
If you blu tak a piece of lead to the bottom of a club it will generate more inertia.
That's just basic physics.
Not that I'm likely to buy either of them.
I've bought cars for less than the price of a modern driver.
just in my opinion I really don't care about the looks I care about the performance of the club
I'm liking the smash of the Marvrik better!
Great vid James! ... I don't know if I agree with your choice on this one lol. Preference wise your def consistent, and I get the color and sound issue on these drivers. But how can you pass up eliminating your fore lefts?? Like you said that would be gold to you. Def a tough call. Great vid again, would love to see the Maverik go head to head against the Epic.
