Wilson Dynapwr 10K Max and Carbon Golf Drivers 2025 Review
GolfMagic reviews the brand new Wilson Dynapwr 10K Driver and Wilson Dynapwr Carbon Driver. Are they the brand's best golf drivers yet?
Compact and confidence-inspiring at address
Both models sound and feel fantastic
Less adjustability than some competitors
Wilson's most expensive driver to date
Wilson continues its Dynapwr legacy into 2025, and with it comes a significant step forward in design with their best golf drivers to date.
The new Dynapwr 10K Max Driver and Dynapwr Carbon Driver represent Wilson's most advanced big dogs yet, promising improved forgiveness, ball speed and consistency.
GolfMagic took both models to Foresight HQ for a full test to find out whether they finally put Wilson among the big boys in 2025.
Let's get into it...
Watch our full video review below, and scroll further down this page to learn more about our views on the Dynapwr 10K Driver and Dynapwr Carbon Driver.
Wilson Dynapwr 10K Max Key Features:
- Stability Driven Shaping - The increased front-to-back and heel-to-toe length delivers a higher moment of inertia (MOI) than ever before, ensuring the straightest tee shots.
- Maximum Forgiveness and Control - The flippable (19g) rear weight allows golfers the ability to fine-tune their left to right shot shaping to deliver straighter tee shots.
Wilson Dynapwr Carbon Driver Key Features:
- Tour Touch - With input from Wilson tour staff, the 460cc head provides players forgiveness while still maintaining a compact look at address.
- Adjustability - Swappable front (3g) and back (9g) weights allow for customisable launch and spin.
First Impressions – A New Look for Wilson
Wilson has taken a huge leap forward in aesthetics.
The Wilson Dynapwr 10K Max Driver and Wilson Dynapwr Carbon Driver both feature a premium black gloss crown, and while the red alignment detail might divide opinion, overall these are the best-looking Wilson drivers to date.
At address, the 10K model is surprisingly compact for a high-MOI driver, looking closer to a TaylorMade Qi10 Max Driver than the PING G430 Max 10K Driver.
Meanwhile, the Dynapwr Carbon model’s split carbon crown is reminiscent of Callaway’s recent drivers, adding a modern, sleek finish.
Wilson Dynapwr 10K Max Driver – Performance & Forgiveness
We started with the Dynapwr 10K, set at 10.5° with a slight loft increase to optimise launch.
First shot – A strong start
- Launch: 12.5°
- Spin: 2500 RPM
- Ball speed: 154 mph
- Carry: 260 yards
A forgiving driver should offer consistent results, and this did exactly that.
"Lovely noise, wowzer! That was very solid, not sure it can get much better. It felt and sounded like a Titleist driver!" - GolfMagic Tester Johnny (8 handicap)
What we noticed:
✅ Excellent dispersion
✅ Low spin and high launch kept ball flight optimised
✅ Slightly lower ball speed than non-10K models, but expected due to added forgiveness
After five shots, the 10K model’s numbers were remarkably consistent:
Metric | Result |
---|---|
Carry Distance | 258 yards |
Total Distance | 277 yards |
Ball Speed | 153 mph |
Spin Rate | 2400 RPM |
Launch Angle | 12° |
Offline (Dispersion) | +3.4 yards (very straight) |
Verdict on the 10K Model
The Dynapwr 10K is one of the most consistent drivers we’ve tested.
What we love most is that it prioritises accuracy over outright speed, making it a superb fairway finder.
Wilson Dynapwr Carbon – Does It Offer More Speed?
Switching to the Dynapwr Carbon, which was set at 9° and lofted up slightly, we expected a small boost in ball speed but at the cost of forgiveness.
First shot – A solid but familiar result
- Ball speed: 154 mph (1 mph faster than the 10K model)
- Spin: 2000 rpm (lower than the 10K model by ~400 rpm)
- Launch: 9.5° (lower than ideal for most players)
While we saw a small increase in ball speed, it wasn’t a significant jump.
Further testing results
- Marginally higher speed, but not enough to justify choosing it over the 10K
- Slightly tighter dispersion, but still not dramatically different
- Toe strikes were still playable, but not as stable as the 10K model
Model | Ball Speed (mph) | Spin (rpm) | Carry (yards) | Total Distance (yards) | Launch Angle (°) | Offline (yards) |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
10K | 153 mph | 2400 | 258 | 277 | 12° | +3.4 |
Carbon | 154 mph | 2000 | 251 | 276 | 9.5° | +1.1 |
Verdict on the Carbon Model
The Dynapwr Carbon does not offer a substantial enough speed advantage over the 10K model.
If you’re looking for raw distance, you might be better off with a Callaway Paradym Ai Smoke Driver or TaylorMade Qi10 LS Driver.
Which One Should You Buy?
If you want a forgiving, fairway-finding driver, go for the Wilson Dynapower 10K Driver (£435).
If you class yourself as a lower spin player who is seeking slightly more speed, the Dynapower Carbon (£480) will work best.
However, the difference is minimal, and as always we would recommend you opt for a custom fitting to find out which driver is best for you.
Given the price difference, of the two Wilson drivers we would have to side with the 10K Max as the better value.
Final Verdict – Wilson’s Best Driver Yet?
Wilson has massively stepped up its game with the Dynapower 2025 drivers.
🔹 The 10K model is one of the most forgiving drivers we’ve tested
🔹 The Carbon model is solid, but doesn’t separate itself enough from the 10K
🔹 Both offer strong dispersion, a great feel, and a premium look
However, ball speed is slightly lower than some premium competitors.
So, while these are the best Wilson drivers yet, we’d like to compare them directly to top-tier drivers from TaylorMade, Callaway, and PING before making a final judgment.
For mid-handicap players looking for consistency without the premium price tag, the Wilson Dynapower 10K is a fantastic option.
