There are no Qi35 ironsThe 2025 Qi35 line was drivers, fairway woods and hybrids only. A listing for "Qi35 irons" is almost always a 2024 Qi set, so price it that way.
HL, HD and OS versions
- HL (high launch): Qi HL lofts are about 2° weaker and the set is over 20g lighter. Qi Max HL has a bigger head and 3° weaker lofts.
- HD (Stealth HD): the more forgiving, draw-biased Stealth for higher handicaps.
- Max OS (SIM2): wider sole, stronger lofts and more draw bias than the SIM2 Max.

SIM2 Max sets sold for a little more than Stealth in our sample, which is unusual for an older model. Samples are small, so set size and shafts can swing the numbers. Qi Max has very few used sales so far, so treat that price as early.
