    TaylorMade M1

    Our Review:

    The second generation of golf’s most adjustable driver might look like the original—with its T-track of sliding weights that tweak shots vertically and horizontally. But look again. Always a force in our Innovation category, there’s now a lighter titanium alloy in the body, and half the sole and most of the crown is weight-saving carbon composite. All this means TaylorMade can position more mass low and deep so mis-hits lose less speed, and all shots launch with less spin. The center track now extends almost a half-inch longer and with a heavier weight. The result is nearly 5,800 settings on each head, 132 percent more than last year.
    Price: $500

    Low-Handicapper
    They make a big head look smaller. Mis-hits were good, and the launch monitor showed high launch with good spin.
    Mid-Handicapper
    A less-than-quality swing still gets a good result. It’s easy to launch the ball high.
    High-Handicapper
    With the weight back, it's hard to miss. One of those shut-up-and-take-my-money clubs.
