The best Wilson drivers — ranked (short and sharp)

Wilson has quietly made a habit of surprising the market: sensible tech, good forgiveness and no nonsense performance. Below we run through five Wilson drivers that have earned respect and a quick note on what each does best and where it might catch you out.

Dynapower (2023 / 2025) — the comeback king

Wilson’s Dynapower family put the brand back in the conversation. The 2023 Dynapower (Titanium/Carbon variants) nails the brief for modern club buyers: solid ball speed, a mild draw bias for players who need it, and a forgiving rear-weighted head that helps keep errant strikes in play. The 2025 Dynapower updates push looks and refinement further, nicer finishes, premium shafts and pleasantly surprising consistency across the face. If you want a confident, all-round driver that won’t punish the odd miss, start here.

Pros: reliable ball speed, built-in forgiveness, good straight-ball bias.
Cons: not the most work-able for shot-shapers who demand a lot of feel.

D9 — the steady performer

The D9 is the kind of club you can pick up, put in the bag and stop thinking about. It’s surprisingly forgiving for a compactish head and keeps distances tight between your best and worst strikes — testers saw minimal yards lost on off-centre hits. For mid-handicappers who want consistency rather than headline distance numbers, the D9 is a very sensible pick. 

Pros: dependable dispersion, comfort on mishits.
Cons: won’t wow you with raw, tour-level ball speed.

Launch Pad — easy to launch, hard to slice

The Launch Pad does what it says: it helps get the ball in the air and tames the slice. It’s light, forgiving and designed for higher launch with a draw bias — ideal for higher handicappers or anyone who struggles to get the ball airborne in the winter months. If you battle a slice, this one will settle nerves quickly.

Pros: very easy to launch, strong draw bias, forgiving.
Cons: lighter feel may not suit players who prefer a heavier, more connected head.

D300 — lightweight and aerodynamic

The D300 was Wilson’s experiment in lightweight speed: neat aerodynamics and crown tech aimed at reducing drag and adding a bit of head speed for the swing-speed limited. It rewards a smooth, committed swing and gives a lively sensation off the face. It’s a good option for players wanting a bit of effortless zip without sacrificing stability.

Pros: encourages faster swings, neat design, pleasing pop.
Cons: lighter construction can feel less stable to those who favour weight behind the ball.

FG Tour F5 — accurate and adjustable

The FG Tour F5 is the club for the player who wants straightforward tuning and real control. It’s less about forgiveness theatre and more about repeatable performance; simple, meaningful adjustability lets you tailor spin and bias, and it rewards decent strikes with tight dispersion. A club for the player who prioritises accuracy. 

Pros: adjustable, accurate, consistent.
Cons: not the forgiving monster some game-improvement heads are.

Quick verdict

If you want forgiveness and modern looks, Dynapower (especially the recent iterations) is the sensible headline pick. Want dependable, everyday performance that smooths out bad swings? The D9 or D300 are quietly excellent. If you need help launching or stopping a slice, the Launch Pad does a real job. And if accuracy and tweakability are your thing, the FG Tour F5 will sit nicely in a thoughtful bag.
