Anyone Have An Idea of What TM’s Driver Plans Are for 2022?

Can CONFIRM.  Looks similar in appearance to that of the Nike Covert models IMO. But the material and spec is accurate to what you have described. I am excited for Taylormade to debut this in December. I also believe the SOUND of this driver is going to be lovely! I love the work all the manufacturers are doing to provide us with such great options these days

so similar in appearance, meaning all red? or just overall shape? I didn't mind that model of Nike drivers. I thought it had a good feel to it. Remember having a matrix ozik black tie in one that was a beast!

True, but I think when these sorts of claims are made it is referring to how wide of an area they can stretch that max CT/COR. Probably easier to make the face hotter over a wider area with lighter/stronger materials, and this claim an overall ball speed increase when in fact it is the average across the face that is increasing. 
 


Which part of the word "TWIST" made you think this was the case? 😜

It all seems twisted, especially the mention of the colors rumored 🤣🤣🤣🤣 how many more sleeps??

Yeah the idea of a red face definitely has me curious in a "sounds terrible but maybe it won't be?" kind of way. I won't be buying one either way, but i'm curious.

I’m envisioning a red Nubbins looking driver face.

Eh, but the efficiency is limited by a max ct measurement. They can go well above these with normal materials but cant because it would be illegal. Same goes for carbon. The sweet spots are already maxed. This seems like a push to get off center hits to near max as well.

This isn't anything new. All OEM's have been striving to get off center hits for the driver closer to the COR/CT limits that have been in place for nearly 20 years.

Will the new driver have twist face? I hit a natural draw which can turn into a hook on a bad day. The difference between my m5 and drivers without twist face on bad hits has been noticeable at times where it hasn’t hooked as badly as I expected.

Didn't Callaway make an all carbon driver and it was awful. The good old C4

Close. The sole plate was metal. It was a POS. One of the worst clubs Callaway made since their Tour Blue putters. That said all club OEMs have made god awful clubs over the years. The C4 driver might have its own wing in the awful golf club HOF though.

Same as last year, but with a new paint job.😴  

 

Technical advance is very limited, the manufactures are already at the max allowable.  Year-to-year changes is more about verbiage than anything else.  I you want to hit it further and closer get fit; ie, different shaft, fine tuning, practice, measure everything to the inth degree.

Of course they are, but results seemed to have been very neglible or minimal to say the least. 3-5 mph is a BIG claim. If true, it would be game changing.

Heck, if they got the just above center, toe side strike ballspeed to match center and low strikes then it could be phenomenal. Imagine getting max ballspeed at the optimal launch and spin location...

While 99% of the time i would agree with this, a pretty reputable source who usually takes this stance has come out and said a driver coming out  this year is game-changing, a “big leap”. Also recall them saying dispersion from mishits to flush hits were as little as 5 yards.

From the manufacturer… yes… from an independent source…bit different. We shall see. Im hopeful but always skeptical. Like @Valtiel said, these thing usually fall somewhere in the middle.

Exactly.  A lot of rumblings that I have heard on this release.  From the twitter post you are referring to to others who have actually hit it.  We are talking about a completely new face construction that has been done in the modern era of AI and Deep Learning computing.  Based on the bits and pieces that I have been picking up I think this thing could potentially live up to all of this crazy hype.  

 

And, people keep mentioning the CT test.  What if this new face is able to produce acceptable numbers during the CT test (which is just a metal ball bouncing off the face from a short distance) while actually being hotter from real life swing speeds?  That is pure speculation on my part.  But, it would be some clever engineering.

Not confirmed that it's TM.  But, with the radical face design change, I am assuming it to be the case.
