All the older golfers will complain that it sounds like crap when you hit the ball despite the fact that it out drives the old model.

Rather hear that sweet sound of my Pings, while the ball goes straight down the middle, albeit not as far. I usually beat those younger guys who don't mind that horrible TM sound. Just sayin'

Maybe it will have an embedded speaker to poorly mimic the sound of the old driver?

Had M1 stuff which did me just fine after my Adams CMB's, switched to M4 full kit incl TM milled wedges, WOW what a difference. Gotta try them to get it, but can't go wrong with either, IMO! I got really fair value for the M1 stuff, so this was just an update, and wanted to go back to Regular shaft stiffness, from Stiff, due to some issues with my ribs.

M4 over M3, don't waste the money on adjust-ability, unless you feel you really require it. I'm nutting drives with the M4 with much more consistency, and the stock Reg Fuji shaft give me some of the best ball flight I've ever seen or had, personally. A match made in heaven, for me lol

The CF on the Driver and 3 Wood are really a piece of art. Nicest "looking" and best performing clubs I've ever had. Only became a TM customer due to the Adams Golf buyout, otherwise I've been using Adams clubs since day1. We're living in a great age of tech, and data, resulting in some great hardware. I think I'll be playing these for at LEAST 5-7 years, can't say I've been as confident since my CMB's..

I've never cared for adjustability personally. As far as I'm concerned, you shouldn't need to tailor your club to your swing. If you do, you aren't doing it right. Just imagine if you've got a draw setting on your driver that you hit straight with, and all of a sudden you've got to hit a driver without that option. Not a good way to improve if you ask me...

I'll definitely give the M4 a spin next time I'm at a shop that has a FlightScope handy. Wouldn't mind getting myself an actual 3 Wood eventually, but I gotta learn how to strike the ball properly with woods first

Ahhh yes, the dreaded 3 wood! lol, I solved my problem by gripping down a bit and keeping my head leaned back, with the ball on the inside of my lead foot, similar to my drive.

I find the M4 driver shaft length to be a bit shorter than my previous drivers, but I like it because I can hit it almost like a 5 iron, I can Tee up nice and low with this one, which I like..

Couple more weeks of this crappy weather and we'll be in full swing!
