Taylormade M5 3-Wood vs Taylormade M6 3-Wood
Taylormade M5 3-Wood vs Taylormade M6 3-Wood. Taylormade have released the M5 and M6 range of drivers, fairways, irons and Hybrids. These are the first fairway woods to include twist face technology. But which 3-wood should you use? Should you get the M5 or the M6? Are you looking for a long 3-wood? Or wanting to hit more fairways off the tee? Maybe your a low handicap, Mid handicap or high handicap? But your unsure which club would work best for you? Well let’s find out… and let’s do it now.
Love the channel! Would really like to see an F9 fairways! Not much online about them.
For me only the M5 is under consideration since I don't like to look at a large fairway wood.
The one big thing not mentioned is the massive price difference between the two. A full 100 quid more, granted its titanium but it's surely not worth an extra 100 of most people's money.
Im guessing the M5
Will be good to see how the others compare.
Have you done the ping 410 fairways and hybrids yet James..?
Great review and some good numbers there as well
Looks like it'd be awfully easy for a lot of dirt/grass to get jammed into the bottom weight-screw-track of the M5. I constantly find dirt lodged into the heel of my 3 Wood where the hosel screw is, and that screw, despite post-round cleaning, has started to rust.
M5 Ti looks to be a bomber for Rory. He doesn't even have a 3w in the bag… goes right to a 5w, then a 790 UDI. Could be a special set up for Torrey maybe?
Any testing on cobra coming up as seems to be a lot of TM content I'm not knocking it. Just think maybe a change of clubs like Callaway,cobra,ping.
Saw the new m5 and m6 fairways at. The m5 is right up my alley until they release a m6 tour HFS face or a deep face. The new drivers are REALLY solid. I loved m1 & 2, hated m3 & 4. TMAG didn't have a booth but they did have a few heads sprinkled about. The Cobra f9 and Mizuno ST190G, were the most exciting new drivers for me. It'll be hard for me to switch to a new fw this year.
Take out the shot that you hit with the M6 and you will see the numbers adjust to what they should be. Leaving a literal top in your number skews the data. It’s not beneficial to leave it in at all. We want to see what the club does not what you do.
Yawn these reviews by YouTubers are getting a bit boring… Don't you think so James. I mean most clubs are nearly the same and you can't really tell unless you try for yourself which suits you best.
Might see more speed from the m6 off a tee
Always a smaller headed 3 wood with shallower face for me I will stick with my M3 thank you.
If only the m6 were titanium like the m5…id be all over it. But I’ll gladly keep gaming my ts2. I seem to recall rors always like a larger head 3w…as he primarily seems to use it off the tee…not from the deck. Thanks for another solid review.
Lets do it, and let’s do it now . Cool how Titliest got that for you on your wedges . Let’s see a vid on a course review on your new Vokey wedges
Good review!
The NUMBERS were not at all what I was expecting. Based on what I've been hearing everywhere I expected the M6 to be longer. I'm not surprised you liked the M5 better, though.
It occurs to me that the M6 was really meant to be hit off a tee. It's more of a driver replacement. The M5 looks like a much more versatile club. Perhaps that partially explains your results? You did only hit them off the mat.
Suggestion: Perhaps your viewers would find it informative if you hit fairway woods off a tee AND off the deck in future reviews? I know I'd really like that!
By the way, I don't like big headed fairway woods at all. I think it largely stems from the fact that I don't hit FW off the tee too much. 75% of the shots I hit with a FW are off the deck. I prefer a sleeker, lower profile, look for shots like that. A FW that is too big/tall just doesn't suit my eye off the turf.
Off topic but building golf room in house what brand and your thoughts on the round hitting mat you are using?
Please do a test out the rough.
