Well, well, well. Look who’s jumping on the copper bandwagon.

Callaway just announced limited-edition brushed copper versions of the Apex Ai200 and Apex Ai300 irons because, apparently, nothing says “premium golf equipment” quite like making everything look like it belongs in a steampunk fantasy.

Don’t get me wrong. I am absolutely not complaining. The copper finish looks fantastic and Callaway isn’t alone in recognizing that golfers have developed a serious appetite for metallics that don’t involve chrome or black. TaylorMade, Mizuno, Vokey—they’ve all been mining copper and for good reason.

It works.

The third bite at the apple

Here’s the thing about limited-edition finishes: they’re brilliant business. We’ve already seen this playbook with the Apex Ai lineup. First came the standard version. Then Callaway rolled out the Black Shadow edition for those who wanted something a little more sinister in their bag.

Tony Finau will never forget the 2025 U.S. Open thanks to wild series of events involving a sprinkler head, a grandstand and a sleeping fan.

If you’re looking to upgrade your driver without paying 2025 prices, buying used is one of the smartest moves you can make. We went back through MyGolfSpy’s Most Wanted driver testing from 2021 to 2024 and pulled 10 models that still deliver top-tier performance. Whether you’re after forgiveness, distance or a specific ball flight, these drivers have been thoroughly tested and proven to compete with the latest releases.

PING G430 Max 10K

The G430 Max 10K was the best-performing driver in MyGolfSpy’s 2024 Most Wanted test and posted the straightest shots in the entire test pool. We tested it again in 2025 and it was the overall runner-up. It’s a forgiveness monster with elite consistency and one of the highest MOI ratings ever tested. If you can find a good deal on a used one (they’re hard to get), it’s worth it. Most start at around $300 used.

TaylorMade Stealth 2 Plus

The Stealth 2 Plus was the top overall driver in the 2023 Most Wanted test. It had a great mix of distance, accuracy and forgiveness. The Stealth 2 Plus has a sliding weight track to help you dial in the perfect launch. It’s a good choice for golfers seeking to refine their shot shape or those with faster swings. It’s still relevant in 2025 for players chasing a high-performance combo of power and control. If you’re a lefty, there are plenty of used models starting at around $200. Right-handed golfers will pay a little more.

Callaway Epic Max LS

Winner of the 2021 Most Wanted Driver test, the Epic Max LS stood out in Strokes Gained, forgiveness and distance for high swing speeds. It remains one of the most balanced low-spin drivers for aggressive swingers who want distance without sacrificing stability. Used prices start at around $199.

TaylorMade Qi10 LS

A standout in 2024 testing for golfers with faster swing speeds, the Qi10 LS delivered elite performance in distance and accuracy. The low-spin profile, paired with stability off the face, makes it great for players who like to shape their shots. You’ll pay a little more since the Qi10 LS is not that old but it’s still worth picking up used.

The U.S. Open is upon us as the 125th edition returns to Oakmont Country Club just outside of Pittsburgh for a record 10th time.

U.S. Opens are synonymous with lightning-fast greens and high scores but thick (and penal) rough might be the biggest staple of America’s national open. 

I had a few questions about how these players handle it.

What’s the preparation like? What is the right attitude to take?

And, above all else, how do you hit out of the rough? Is there one tactic you should take?
