Which to choose
The biggest difference is ball flight. Testers found that the Triple Diamond Max launches higher and spins a little more than the standard Triple Diamond. The Tour Draw does the opposite: it brings launch and peak height down for players who hit it too high. The Max also has a slightly larger 460cc head, against the Tour Draw's compact 450cc, and it gives more forgiveness. Heel misses stay playable, but toe strikes lose carry.
The Tour Draw is meant to help the ball turn over, but testers didn't agree on how much it does. Most testers found the Max close to neutral and easy to work both ways. On feel, the Max is muted and springy, while the Tour Draw feels firm and powerful.
Choose the Elyte Triple Diamond Max Driver if…
you're a low to mid handicapper swinging at roughly 100 mph or faster who wants a traditional player-style head with more launch, a little more spin and more forgiveness than the standard Triple Diamond.
Choose the Elyte Triple Diamond Tour Draw Driver if…
you're a better player who hits the ball too high and wants a lower flight from the compact 450cc Triple Diamond head with a deep face, and you're willing to get fitted to check how much draw it really gives you.
Common questions
- Which is more forgiving?

- Which has more draw bias?
- The Tour Draw is designed to help the ball turn over, but testers split: one found it fixed his push to the right, while others saw no clear right-to-left flight. Most testers found the Max close to neutral and easy to work both ways.
- Which launches higher?
- The Max launches higher than the standard Triple Diamond. The Tour Draw brings launch and peak height down for players who hit it too high.
