Maverick McNealy has finally been outshining this season. Playing for over five years on the PGA Tour, he has failed to acquire even a single win so far. However, the 2024 season has been the best for him so far. He appeared in twenty-seven events and made the most cuts, among all the other years.
The 29-year-old only missed six cuts. Additionally, he has landed himself in the top 10 five times, which includes his T3 finish at the 3M Open. Also, he has earned a total of $3,340,358 so far in 2024. But the question is, what tools helped him change his game?
According to GolfWRX, the American professional has a total driving field average of 167 and a total driving distance of 302.8. To add to the list, his driving accuracy is about 60.83%, which ranks him in the top 100 on the list. This has been possible with the help of his TaylorMade Qi10 “Dot” (10.5 degrees), which he uses with the Graphite Design Tour AD XC 6 TX shaft. These are priced at $599.99 but are currently available for $499.99 on the official website. It gives him an optimized distance and enhanced forgiveness.

McNealy ranks 20th on the list of Putts per round, with a field average of 28.30. This has been possible with the help of the Toulon Design Prototype.
