Max Game Improvement Fairway Wood

The Rogue ST Max D is Callaway's answer to the slice, and it goes after that miss more aggressively than almost anything else in the 2022 lineup. The "D" is for draw, and this is the driver you reach for when your ball flight leaks right and you're tired of aiming into the left rough to compensate. It shares the Rogue ST platform with the standard Max, but the weighting, the offset, and the stock setup all push the face toward closing at impact.

Under the hood it runs the same A.I.-designed Flash Face and the Jailbreak speed frame that Callaway used across the whole Rogue ST family, plus a tungsten weight positioned low and toward the heel. That heel bias is the whole point. It nudges the center of gravity so the toe rotates through impact faster, which turns a weak fade into something closer to straight. Ball speed stays high because the face tech and internal weighting are shared with the non-draw models, so you're not sacrificing distance to fight your shape.

This is a high-launch, high-forgiveness driver aimed squarely at moderate swing speeds and mid-to-high handicaps. It won't turn a hard hook into a problem for most slicers, and it won't pretend to be a low-spin bomber for a tour player. If you already draw the ball or work it both ways, look at the standard Max or the LS. If right is your enemy, this is built for you.

• You fight a slice or a persistent fade off the tee and want the club to help square the face instead of fighting your swing.
• Your swing speed sits in the moderate range and you launch the ball low, so the high-launch build adds carry you're leaving out there.
• Mid-to-high handicappers who want forgiveness on heel and toe misses without giving up ball speed.
• Anyone who has tried aiming left to manage a slice and would rather fix the ball flight at the club.
• Players who want a driver that corrects automatically but still gives them hosel adjustability to fine-tune loft and lie.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the D in Rogue ST Max D stand for?

Draw. The Max D is the draw-biased model in the Rogue ST family, built with heel-side weighting and slight offset to help close the face at impact and reduce a slice.

Is the Rogue ST Max D good for a slice?

Yes, that's exactly what it's designed for. The internal tungsten sits toward the heel and the head has a lighter swing weight and a bit of offset, all of which help the face rotate closed through impact so your ball starts straighter or draws slightly.

What's the difference between the Rogue ST Max and the Max D?

They share the same face tech, Jailbreak frame, and ball speed. The standard Max is a neutral, all-around game-improvement driver, while the Max D adds draw bias through heel weighting and offset. Pick the Max D only if right is your bad miss.

Is the Rogue ST Max D adjustable?

Yes. It uses Callaway's OptiFit hosel, which gives you an eight-way range to adjust loft and lie. You can add loft for more launch and spin or flatten the lie if the draw bias feels too strong.

What loft should I get in the Rogue ST Max D?

Stock lofts are 9, 10.5, and 12 degrees. Most slicers with moderate swing speeds do best in the 10.5, which pairs the high-launch design with the lighter draw shaft. Go to 12 if you launch it very low or struggle to get the ball airborne.
