The look at address is almost identical to the M1 apart from the gold lettering of 'Tuned Performance' on the inside of the crown, which seemed to catch my eye more than it should. The feel is still very good from the Inverted Cone variable thickness face on the M2, even if the head seems does not seem to feel as light through the swing, probably due to the different CG location. Therefore there is a balance between sound and size, which is then refined by the layout of the fin structures on the inside of the head and the work TaylorMade has done here is very impressive when you see it. Speaking to their design team at the launch in the USA, this required a lot of work, because as you make the speed pocket bigger it increases performances, but significantly changes the sound. The sound of both models is excellent in their own way and this is where there are a lot of differences in the construction on the inside, as TaylorMade use fins located all around the inside of the head to improve how it sounds. I probably prefer the M1 acoustics as the looks almost demand a premium sound that announces you are on the tee and have just obliterated the ball. Given that the sliding weight tracks are now enclosed it gives a solid and more muted sound than the M1 at impact. That is enough of the AeroBurner comparisons as TaylorMade are keen to point out that the M2 is not a replacement for AeroBurner, but a bona-fide member of the M family that has moved into the TaylorMade house this year.

This is one reason why you may see more adjustable M2 drivers on tour than fixed hosel AeroBurners as elite players can now de-loft the face by opening it to create more of an anti-left club than before. The other main difference is the re-introduction of the standard TaylorMade aluminium Loft Sleeve adjustable hosel that enables you to change the loft across three settings by up to +/- 2В° in an upright or standard lie. However a taller head usually means a higher CG, but with the lighter carbon composite crown, TaylorMade is able to keep the crown height and also lower the CG and get the best of both worlds. This in turn reduces turbulence and makes the head go through the air faster, which means more ball speed and therefore more distance. This is a good thing for aerodynamics as the smoother gradient to the back of the crown holds the airflow closer to the head for longer. Like the M1, the top of the crown is higher than the top of the face and this would normally mean that the CG would be higher. Once they make allowances for the bonding required to join the two pieces, this leaves around 6g that can be moved to the sole, which is a lot in club heads. The carbon composite crown weighs 12g less than a titanium crown and means that they can move this weight lower in the head to drop the Centre of Gravity (CG) 35% lower and 46% further back than it was in the AeroBurner. Out goes the white crown, red paint, AeroHosel fin and raised crown and in comes the white titanium front section combined with the black carbon composite crown that makes the M2 look as great as the M1.

It replaces the AeroBurner driver and in that respect the looks could not be more different. This is where the M2 comes in and is the first multi-material driver TaylorMade has created in their lower price point range. However the M1 is expensive and nowadays a lot of drivers that just have an adjustable hosel have head designs that are so forgiving that they can suit an ever widening range of golfers without having to resort to moving weights around the sole. Obviously there is a bit more to it than that, but the price point is one of the main reasons why this club exists, as the M1 offers as much adjustability as anything out there to enable you to fine tune your driver performance to match your swing. If I had to do a one line review of the TaylorMade M2 driver then it would probably go along the lines of it's the same as the TaylorMade M1, but without the two sliding weights and as a result costs ВЈ100 less.
