If you’ve ever looked down at a fairway wood and thought, “I like it… but I’d like it more if it behaved,” TaylorMade believes it has your answer.
The new TaylorMade Qi4D fairway woods and hybrids are built around advanced multimaterial construction, refined shaping, and a bigger emphasis on adjustability—designed to make that top end of the bag less of a guessing game and more of a weapon.
“The Qi4D lineup of fairway woods and hybrids is a result of our relentless pursuit of industry-leading performance. Through the use of multimaterial construction, subtle refinements, optimised CG locations, and more adjustability than ever before, Qi4D fairway woods and hybrids pave the way for golfers to experience a heightened level of playability and versatility at the top end of their bag.”
Brian Bazzel, Vice President of Product Creation
Qi4D fairway woods and hybrids will be available for preorder on Jan. 8 and available at retail locations on Jan. 29.
Tour bags don’t lie, and TaylorMade is leaning into that evidence

TaylorMade’s confidence here isn’t based on vibes. It’s hanging its hat on a decade-long run of fairway-wood dominance at the highest level—and it says that carried straight through 2025.
For more than a decade, TaylorMade have been the most played on the PGA TOUR *. That trend continued in 2025, and TaylorMade fairway woods were in the bags of all four major championship winners including World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler who won the PGA and Open Championships, and Rory McIlroy, who completed the career Grand Slam at Augusta.

Same recipe, sharper knife: what’s actually new in Qi4D
The headline isn’t “brand-new concept.” It’s “better execution.” TaylorMade says the Qi4D line builds on what has worked, then tightens the details golfers actually notice: the way it sits, the way it frames the ball, the way it launches, and the way it misses.
Across the family, the talking points are consistent:
- Cleaner address profiles and finely tuned sit points
- Optimised CG locations for more reliable launch/spin windows
- More Trajectory Adjustment System (TAS) weighting options
- More heads featuring a 4° loft sleeve for loft/lie/face-angle tuning
On the tech front, Qi4D fairways keep familiar TaylorMade staples:
- Improved cut-through Speed Pocket™ to protect ball speed and reduce spin on low-face strikes
- Twist Face™ to tighten dispersion when you find trouble on the face
A material advantage: different head types, different builds

TaylorMade’s Qi4D family isn’t a one-head-fits-all play. The construction changes depending on which player it’s aimed at.
- Qi4D Tour fairway woods: titanium face + titanium body, carbon fibre crown, and a 65g tungsten mass pad positioned for optimised speed, forgiveness and playability.
- Qi4D and Qi4D Max fairway woods: steel faces and bodies, with carbon fibre crowns.
The point is simple: use premium materials where they create measurable gains, then position mass to influence launch, spin and stability—without turning the club into a science project you can’t actually hit.
Fit your game: TAS weights, loft sleeves, and a new REAX shaft family
Adjustability is the quiet star here. TaylorMade isn’t just offering tweakability for the sake of it—its pitch is that you can dial spin and shape without overcomplicating the club.
The Qi4D family pushes two levers:
- TAS weights in fairway woods to tune spin and shot shape.
- More heads with a 4° loft sleeve than ever before—specifically including all lofts in Qi4D and Qi4D Tour—for loft, lie and face angle tuning.
On shafts, TaylorMade is rolling out a new REAX™ lineup, created with Mitsubishi Chemical’s material and production expertise, with multiple weight/flex profiles to cover more swings without forcing golfers into guesswork.
The lineup: which Qi4D fairway wood is for you?
Qi4D fairway woods: Tour-inspired shape without the intimidation
Qi4D fairway wood heads (185cc) take cues from Tour feedback: tucked heel/toe protrusions, refined sit points, and a shape aimed at keeping ball speed variances tighter across the face—while still looking friendly at address.
Key design notes:
- Slightly more open face appearance
- Flatter lie angle than the previous model
- Optimised CG for distance, control and versatility
- 8g TAS weight for spin/launch tuning
- 4° loft sleeves in all lofts for full custom tuning
Price: £319 / €399 / SEK 4,499 / NOK 4,599 / DKK 2,999 / CHF 369.
Qi4D Fairway Woods Specs
- Lofts: 3W (15°), 3-HL (16.5°) ((RH only)), 5W (18°), 7W (21°), 9W (24° ((RH only))
- Shafts: REAX FW 65 (X, S), 55 (R, A)
- Grip: Golf Pride Z-Grip +2 Black/Silver 0.600 52g
Qi4D Tour fairway woods: smaller head, heavier tungsten, finer control
Qi4D Tour fairway woods (175cc) go harder on the multimaterial story, centred around that 65g tungsten mass pad sitting low behind the titanium face to promote high launch and lower spin—so shots “come off hot” and carry.
The big differentiator is the three-weight TAS system:
- 15g x1 / 4g x2
- Heavy weight back = added stability
- Heavy weight toe = fade bias
- Heavy weight heel = draw bias
All heads include a 4° loft sleeve for full loft/lie/face-angle tuning.

Qi4D Max and Max Lite: forgiveness first, speed for those who need it
If your miss tends to arrive uninvited and bring friends, Qi4D Max (and Max Lite) is the more sensible, less stubborn option. These are 200cc heads with a shallow face and perimeter weighting to boost stability, keep ball speed up, and tighten dispersion.
- Qi4D Max: reshaped 8g TAS weight oriented rearward to increase MOI
- Qi4D Max Lite: 4g TAS weight, plus an ultralight head/shaft/grip package designed to maximise clubhead speed and carry distance
- 3- and 5-woods in both models feature a 4° loft sleeve

Qi4D hybrids: long-iron replacements with proper tuning

Price: £269 / €349 / SEK 3,999 / NOK 3,999 / DKK 2,699 / CHF 369.
Progressive top line: a cleaner look that matches the set
The hybrids use a progressive top line—thinner on Qi4D, thicker on Max/Max Lite—plus a refined sight dash to make them look more inviting at address.
Qi4D Rescue™: distance and control with big adjustability
Qi4D hybrids combine 450 stainless steel with a carbon fibre crown, tuned for specific carry numbers and a steeper descent angle to help hold greens.
- 8g TAS weight in all lofts

The bottom line
The TaylorMade Qi4D woods aren’t pitched as a revolution—they’re pitched as a refinement campaign with teeth: cleaner shapes, more tunable flight, proven speed-preserving tech, and distinct models that actually make sense depending on how you deliver the club.
Preorder lands Jan. 8, retail follows Jan. 29, and the range runs from Tour-leaning precision to full-fat forgiveness, with hybrids built to retire the long iron without apology.
