MVP Photon Flight Review

The MVP Photon is a stable to overstable distance driver that blends power, precision, and reliable fade into one consistent flight. It is built for players who want dependable long drives without sacrificing control, whether on open fairways or in tougher conditions. The Photon handles torque exceptionally well, making it a favorite for both forehands and powerful backhands.

Out of the hand, it pushes forward with a touch of turn, just enough to hold a straight or slight flex line before finishing with a strong, predictable fade. This makes it ideal for shaping long distance shots with confidence, even in headwinds or on tight fairways where accuracy matters. Its glide keeps it in the air without being overly floaty, striking a perfect balance between carry and control.

Backhand throwers will enjoy its ability to hold the line before fading, while forehand throwers will appreciate its resistance to turning over under pressure. It excels on flex shots, power hyzers, and straight drives that need a clean finish.

The Photon excels as a go-to distance driver for players seeking a stable, high-speed flight with a dependable finish. It delivers consistent performance on a variety of lines, from straight drives with subtle movement to controlled fades that finish with authority. Its balanced profile encourages confident throws and clean mechanics, making it a reliable option for shaping long, accurate flights in a range of playing conditions.

The Photon is best described as a longer Tesla, with power throwers able to achieve some flight-extending turn, and all throwers getting a reliable fade. The Photon is naturally headwind resistant but average power throwers can use a headwind to emulate those extended flights of high power throwers.
