Building Rory McIlroys 2017 M2 Driver

Показать описание

Maybe the biggest surprise of the 2016 golf season was the sheer dominance of TaylorMade’s M2 driver. When it was first released many viewed the M2 as nothing more than the M1’s little brother. But as the year progressed it became the most popular driver in golf among touring pros and amateurs alike. That left TaylorMade with a significant challenge in making the new M2 driver even better but it’s a challenge that has been accomplished albeit in multiple ways. First and foremost when it comes to the new M2 driver is the introduction of Geocoustic Technology as TaylorMade combined innovative shaping to increase the overall MOI with improved acoustic engineering that creates better sound and feel at impact. Additionally by using more carbon in the design 25 grams of weight was freed up to create a larger overall footprint for more forgiveness and a CG placement that’s even lower and deeper than it was in the original M2 which creates high launch low spin and enhanced stability at impact. Also of note the Speed Pocket on the new M2 has also been redesigned and is now three times more flexible than its predecessor which is creating faster ball speeds. As was the case with the original the new M2 features a 460cc clubhead and a lightweight aluminum loft sleeve that allows players to adjust loft by +/- 2 degrees to achieve their preferred ball flight. The stock shaft meanwhile is the high-launching mid-spin Fujikura Pro XLR8 56 but TaylorMade is also offering more than 30 additional premium shafts at no upcharge.
