These two are close on paper. Both are game improvement hybrids, both come in 4 lofts, and neither has an adjustable hosel. The gaps are in the loft ladder and the price. The TaylorMade Qi4D Max Rescue is offered at 19°, 22°, 25° and 28°. The Titleist GT1 Hybrid is offered at 19°, 21°, 24° and 27°, slightly stronger through the middle and topping out lower. A golfer who wants the most loft available in a hybrid has a clearer reason to pick the Qi4D Max Rescue. A golfer who prefers slightly stronger lofts will be more comfortable with the GT1 Hybrid. At list price the Qi4D Max Rescue is $20 cheaper, $279.99 against $299.99.
The Qi4D Max Rescue is the easier pick if you are paying full price. It is the newer design, a 2026 release against 2025 for the GT1 Hybrid, and it costs less at MSRP. That one-year gap cuts the other way once discounts start, since the older GT1 Hybrid is the model more likely to be marked down. If you want the widest loft range and the newest release, take the Qi4D Max Rescue. If you prefer the stronger lofts and can find the GT1 Hybrid on sale, it is a sensible choice at the right number.
