You have your eye on the 2016 TaylorMade M1 driver but aren’t sure what it can do for your game. While the adjustments available on the club may look confusing, they’re quite simple. Taking a closer look at the T-Track system and loft sleeve shows how helpful an adjusting club can be.

2016 TaylorMade M1 T-Track System

Sliding weight tracks are not a new concept for TaylorMade. The SLDR and R15 feature weight tracks to control left or right shot shapes. The 2016 TaylorMade M1 adds to this concept, introducing another track to control the height of the shot.

The front track, which runs parallel to the face, has a 15-gram weight. Adjusting the weight toward the toe of the club promotes a fade. Moving the weight toward the heel gives a draw bias to the shot. To make it easy to remember, TaylorMade puts the words “Fade” and “Draw” on the track.

The new rear track has a 10-gram weight that controls the height of the shot. It runs perpendicular to the front track. Moving the weight toward the face will lower the ball flight. Putting the weight further back raises the ball flight. Again, TaylorMade makes it easy to remember by putting “Low” and “High” on the track.

So, how can this help your game? First, to adjust the track weights, unscrew the weights enough to allow them to move back and forth. Move the weights to the desired position and tighten until the tool clicks once. Right-handed golfers struggling with hitting the ball left can move the front weight toward the “Fade” side. Doing so lets the heel come through the ball faster, making it easier to hit the ball right. Equally, golfers struggling with shots going right can adjust the weight to the “Draw” side. This setting lets the toe come through faster, letting shots go left easier. Shots hit too low or too high can be adjusted accordingly with the rear weight. Whatever height a golfer struggles with, move the weight toward the opposite word. Simple enough!

Loft Sleeve

The loft sleeve that goes into the club head also aids with shot shaping. There are 12 positions to adjust the loft and face angle available. You can adjust the loft up or down 2 degrees from the stamped loft on the club. The “higher” position is the full 2 degrees of more loft. “Lower” signifies 2 degrees less loft. The dash marks in between the “higher” and “lower” markings represent ½ degree increments.

Adjusting the sleeve is as easy too. Simply unscrew the shaft from the club head by turning the screw counter-clockwise. Once completely separated, find the setting you would like and insert the shaft back into the club head, matching the setting with the arrow that is on the hosel. Turn the screw clockwise until the tool clicks once and you are all set!

Summary

There you have it, folks! Simple adjustments on the TaylorMade 2016 M1 driver helps adjust ball flight to straighten out drives.

50 Words or Less

Solid and bold. A true statement on the course or range.

Introduction

The story of 2012 was the Taylormade Rocketballz line. Wow, you couldn’t go anywhere in the golf world without hearing people asking or talking about the Rocketballz woods. The biggest problem when you deliver a product line like that is that you have to follow it up with something better. Well Taylormade tried to do just that with the new Rocketballz Stage 2 line which is billed as “Rocketballz-ier.”

Looks

Sticking with Taylormade’s new theme of matte white woods, the most noticeable update in the Rocketballz Stage 2 driver is the loud graphics on the crown which may be difficult for some to get used to. The head shape is generally the same as the original Rocketballz, but there is an updated color scheme to accompany the new design on the crown which is supposed to make it easier for the golfer to get the club lined up on every shot. The new color scheme substituted the neon green for a racing yellow which gives the always-cool color combo of yellow and black.

Sound & Feel

Not only is the appearance of the Rocketballz Stage 2 a statement, but the sound is as well. When you really rip into a shot, there’s no mistaking it. The sound is a very thunderous smack and really lets you know that may have just cracked at least one of the layers of the ball.

Tuning

With that explosive sound, you’re going to find a matching explosive feel. The club face feels very solid and it feels like the ball just rockets off the face at impact. (That pun even hurt me). It’s almost disappointing to hit this club because every shot feels like it’s going 345 yards and piercing through the air, but then you realize your swing still wasn’t good enough to produce that kind of shot regardless of how it felt.

Performance

It took me a little bit to get used to the Fujikura RocketFuel shaft in the Rocketballz Stage 2 which felt pretty stout compared to my real-deal Fuel. Once I got through the adjustment period, I was able to hit some pretty booming shots. I wouldn’t feel comfortable telling you that the ball was ballooning whatsoever, but I wasn’t getting piercing trajectories either. I was seeing pretty good carry (about 275 yards on average) and had a nice roll out of about 25 to 30 yards. I wasn’t quite find all the extra length promised in the Taylormade marketing, which was expected, but I was still hitting this club plenty long.

The biggest difference between the Stage 2 and the original RBZ seems to be the improved aerodynamics which reduced drag to increase club speed, resulting in more distance.

The Stage 2 also has an updated adjustability component. Previously, the shaft sleeve only allowed you an upright and standard lie setting, and then club face positions. In the new sleeve, you get 7 different standard and 5 different upright loft options. Taylormade explains this on their site:

TaylorMade Loft-Sleeve technology offers 7 standard and 5 upright loft options to add ±1.5° to each of the available standard lofts: 9.5 (which can be adjusted up to 11° or down to 8°) 10.5 (which can be adjusted up to 12° or down to 9°) and HL 13 (which can be adjusted up to 14.5° or down to 11.5°).

Conclusion

If you’re ready to really go out and make a statement on the golf course, the Rocketballz Stage 2 driver is exactly what you’re looking for. This club has the long drives in it that everyone is looking for and updated adjustability making it more user friendly than previous Taylormade drivers. For the Taylormade lifers, the Rocketballz Stage 2 will not be a great departure from the all characteristics you’ve loved in your old Taylormade drivers so consider this as a great upgrade option when you’re ready to pick up your next driver.
