Designed for higher swing speed players, the LS is the lowest-launching, lowest-spinning, most workable model in the Qi10 Driver family. The LS boasts three additional yards of distance compared to its predecessor, the Stealth 2 Plus. The primary contributors to the newfound distance gains are a re-engineered 60X Carbon Twist Face that more efficiently transfers energy into the ball and a new supportive structure back it. The structure acts like a hinge, allowing the fast to flex and rebound more, resulting in explosive ball speeds.
The LS also surpasses the Stealth 2 in several other performance categories, predominantly due to its new Infinity Carbon Crown. Now spanning 97% of the total area available, the crown frees up discretionary weight, which is redistributed lower in the head. Relocating the CG significantly boosts MOI, stability, and forgiveness. Additionally, spin is reduced by 100 RPMs, and launch conditions are slightly elevated.
Players seeking a smoother shaft profile should opt for Mitsubishi's Tensei AV Limited Blue, while those prioritizing the lowest spin rates should select the stouter Tensei AV Limited Black.
