All this was is a sales pitch.
I picked up a triple diamond Paradym 3 wood this weekend. wow.. I was a little shocked but have been using much older 3 woods for years. Makes me want to check out the driver but hit my TM Sim 2 pretty good so I shouldnt.
cheers.
I just played my first 9 holes last night with the Ai Smoke Triple Diamond yesterday and I was impressed. I hit 6 out of 7 fairways, which is better than my normal, and it was as long as my TSR2, which has been my favorite driver of all time. I have a TSR3, but the TSR2 is better for my swing. I will give it another go this weekend for a full 18. It looks very nice behind the ball, and I like the sound and feel. Still need to mess with the adjustments to get it dialed in. Of note, the spin is higher than I was expecting around 2500-2600 rpms, compared to my TSR2 which is in the 2300-2400 rpm range.
As a 7hcap I found almost no difference between the 2 clubs when tested for a couple of weeks. In the end I kept my old paradyme as it appeared like I had lower spin and your review also confirmed it. I do like the looks of the new Smoke design though, maybe if I had played around with the weights/shaft I may have produced lower spins. It did take me several changes in grip , shafts and weights to perfect the old paradyme for my swing. Was a costly experiment but now that I own them, I just need to buy the head and re-tune it for me. Maybe I will buy when there is a discount.
I love my Ping products, but I take issue with the heavy draw bias and toe in address with Ping drivers and FW metals. I may get into an Ai Smoke TD, as they say it's good for people like me who's main miss is a hook.
You wanna hit it straighter and further…Workout and get some lessons….
how would you compare the smoke to the tsr3? i'm thinking of making the switch to the ai smoke.
These clubs are identical, the only difference is the variance from the player hitting them. You pulled one left and that is the only reason the dispersion is larger in the Paradym.
Would love to see Rogue ST Max vs AI Smoke Max
Live my Rad Speed. In like, 5 years maybe?? But… there isn't gonna be much more
Some guys were testing the new AI Smoke drivers at my local driving range yesterday (Jan 2024) as a new arrivals. They are loud, almost Ping G425 loud but with a different tone to the sound. The sound alone won't be for everyone.
You should do the normal version comparison. Most of the people watching will not use either of these.
Most players don't play the Triple Diamond, so we won't get ANYTHING out of this at all
There's not enough there for me to switch to the new one. I really like the blue better than the gray. I have the blue triple diamond three wood. Probably the best 3 wood I've ever hit.. For the price tag on these drivers, I'll wait.
Would you be willing to compare the new AI to the 22 Rogue trip diamond
I didn't make the jump from Rogue to Paradym since the numbers didn't justify, especially in despersment. I'll be comparing when our course has their Callaway Fitting and if it does what you say I'll be buying.
I am a Callaway man; driver and fairways. Tried Paradym last year, but my Rogue Max stayed in the bag. Distance was the same and the dispersion was similar. Did not like the top of the Paradym with the two different colours. The different colours were subtle, but still reminded me of an older TaylorMade. Smoke numbers will need to improve to remove my Rogue.
Where is the jailbreak – the biggest invention after the sliced bread????
Do a video tsr vs a1 smoke
Love the look. Would like to see all the new drivers up against the TSR3. Seems like that was the driver to beat last year
Great vid as usual Mike. Any chance of seeing the dispersion difference with the weights forward ?
Smooth 110 🤌🏻
Always been a callaway guy, but rogue st and paradigm just felt really bad off the face imo, and I really only get a new driver every couple years so I didn’t try the epic. Suffice to say I’m still gaming Mavrik and I love that driver. 2 shafts later and probably going with Taylormade qi10ls or ping 430lst this year, but I got fit in October and nothing beat it, so we shall see. Driver tech is just so marginal year-to-year
Like the looks of the original Paradym. I'd really like to see the major OEMs go to a two year product cycle, like Titleist. I love golf and golf equipment, but it's so clear from year to year that they struggle to differentiate their new product from the one they just put out and it's kind of tiring.
The AI Smoke was actually shorter by several yards but Michael brushed over that. Interesting…
I buy a new driver every 4 years or so. If you were in my shoes would you buy the Paradym at a discount or go with the AI Smoke? My gut says save a bit of coin.
