Taylormade M5 & M6 Woods - Pics added page 46

Recommended Posts

Not going to go thru all 25 pages of this thread but I held the entire lineup in my hands yesterday. Both drivers have matte carbon fiber on the top w/ a much smaller "silver" area up front. In person, to me at least, M5 looked considerably better than the M6 (both at address and the bottom of the club, bc that matters...)

 

M5 fairways are pretty incredible. Titanium faced and have a moveable 65 gram (yes 65 grams) weight.

 

Also TwistFace is on everything, including fairways and hybrids. No hybrid in the M5 lineup.

 

So youre saying that i finally found a 3w what i like... and im going to try to replace it with it's younger-hotter-titanium model? :)

 

Believe me I am right there with you. Going to game my 2016 tour issue M2's until they eventually break and then the M5 is gonna have to happen

65 grams of moveable weight on the M5 Fairway? Jeebus, that'll move the CG around more than a bit! I wonder how they pulled off that kind of discretionary weight saving to make that happen.

65 grams? Where did you hear that?

 

Mentioned a couple times in the thread already.

That m5 weight system looks a lot like the original cortex weight track prior to them consolidating to the single track. Funny they said that rear track didn’t have much of an effect on flight/shape/cg. Now we’ve got both TM and Cally opting for this style track. So... who’s wrong?

 

Honestly, the cortex is better looking than these and the epic flash line. Too bad it doesn’t quite check all the performance boxes. Interested to see the G410

65 grams of moveable wait, weight what???

That must be the shaft? 65g is a third of some club head weight.

this can't be correct

 

I agree it seems pretty nuts, thats basically 3-4x more weight than you normally see. Personally I think it would be a great thing but i'll believe when I see it. IUbball23 said he had it in his hands....

65 grams. Not a joke. Was absolutely shocked when I saw it / took the weight out of the head and actually held it in one hand and the head in the other. I know it sounds like a crazy # but it's definitely true.

Folks have said matte carbon with an even smaller metallic topline.

Is it tungsten? Would have to be really dense to be that heavy in a small enough weight to move around...

That part I am not sure about, will see if I can find out. That being said there is nothing "small" about this weight, it takes up its fair share of the sole of the fairway wood.

Thanks for confirming! This is the thing I'm most excited about to be honest. That much weight can be extremely useful as long as you know that you're doing.

not a long weight track, but that amount of weight should make a difference.
