In conjunction with using new materials and bonding techniques, this saves 8g which is added to the 3g they have saved by using lighter 9-1-1 titanium for the body and you have 11g grams to play around with. This carbon panel on the sole has been recessed in a little which saves volume here to enable the overall footprint to be larger. Firstly there is more carbon around, 43% to be precise, and this is most evident in the toe panel. Turn the club over and you start to see where some of the main changes come in. This gives the impression that the new version is deeper than the old one, and it is slightly, but not as much as you think thanks to the extra expanse of black from the thinner white line. Look a little closer and you will see that the white section is a little thinner and more angled now in order to take some weight out of the top of the club and that will be a recurring theme here. This is a great look and like before I think it helps with alignment at address with the white leading edge taking over to give an optical illusion of a smaller head.
The 2017 M1 driver that we have been waiting light years for in TaylorMade terms, builds on the success of the original by evolving it along the same principles rather than a wholesale redesign, which is good to see.įrom above you would have to be eagle eyed to spot the 4% larger footprint at address which has been achieved by saving weight in a few places.Īside from that it still features the distinctive white titanium leading edge ahead of the black Carbon Composite crown that now features 6 layers of material.
When TaylorMade launched the original M1 driver, they said that it would last the full year and to their credit, 14 months later TaylorMade has stuck to that promise with interest.
