Shot Tracer On Course Test. In 2019 we have seen the launch of some incredible technology in the golfing world. Taylormade have released the M5 and M6 drivers whilst Callaway have released the Epic Flash Drivers. In this video I head to the golf course and use shot tracer to show you which driver hits more fairways, which driver is the longest, which one I prefer and maybe even which driver you should spend you money on! Is one the perfect driver for high handicaps? Maybe they are both great for beginners or tour pros?Let\u2019s do it... and let\u2019s do it now.\"><\/div><\/div><div class=\"lL\" style=\"max-width:100%;width:853px;margin:5px auto;\"><\/div><figcaption><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Looks, Feel &amp; Sound<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The first thing I want to talk about is how the drivers&nbsp;<strong>look<\/strong>. It\u2019s not really a huge deal because it\u2019s not going to impact the performance but a lot of people buy clubs or shafts because of the way they look. Both are fairly nice but I like the way the M6 looks a lot more. The shape is great, I like the colors, and it gives me the most confidence looking down at it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The next thing is the way they&nbsp;<strong>sound<\/strong>&nbsp;at impact. Again, both are pretty solid sounding drivers but I did prefer the M6. The Callaway had a pretty high pitch sound to it at impact while the M6 was much deeper and sounded a lot more solid. This doesn\u2019t affect performance but some people are super picky with how their clubs sound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The final thing is the way they&nbsp;<strong>feel<\/strong>&nbsp;through impact. This is the main thing that matters to me because I do think it has an effect on the overall performance of your game. Having something that feels solid will boost your confidence on the course and that\u2019s going to help your game a lot. The good news here is that both of them feel really solid and are too close to pick between.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Forgiveness<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>These drivers are suited more for your&nbsp;<strong>average<\/strong>&nbsp;<strong>weekend<\/strong>&nbsp;<strong>golfer<\/strong>&nbsp;and that\u2019s why forgiveness is one of the more important things. Most golfers struggle to hit the center of the face and that\u2019s where the hook or slice comes from. Having forgiveness is going to help with keeping your ball in the fairway and having a decent distance no matter where you hit the face.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Both of them were supposed to have big improvements over the previous years\u2019 models and even though they aren\u2019t going to fix your big slice, I do think they are better than the previous generation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In saying that, I had the&nbsp;<strong>most forgiveness with the Taylormade M6<\/strong>. The Callaway was pretty good but the M6 was clearly better for my game. When I mishit the ball with the Callaway, it was most likely going into the rough. There were a few times when I mishit the M6 and it still managed to hit the fairway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019m not going to get into the science behind why that\u2019s the case but it was pretty clear to me who the winner was. Remember, this is coming from someone who didn\u2019t really like Taylormade drivers in the past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Distance<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The main thing people look at with their golf clubs is how far they go. That\u2019s all they\u2019re really looking for even though it\u2019s not really going to improve their game. Everyone wants to bomb it miles down the fairway and I found both to be fairly long.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I do have good news though.&nbsp;<strong>I found the M6 to be the longest<\/strong>&nbsp;for my swing. It\u2019s probably because it flew straighter which kept it in the fairway and allowed it to roll out. It wasn\u2019t longer by much but it was noticeable for sure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There were a few times when I hit the Callaway dead center and the Taylormade a bit off the toe and they ended up going the same distance. I think that\u2019s going to be huge for a lot of players. It\u2019s not a gamechanger and it\u2019s not going to fix a bad swing but it was an awesome club.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Again, I\u2019m not saying the M6 will be better for you because a lot of people do use the Callaway. The best thing to do is try them out for yourself but I do think you\u2019ll love either of them. If you want a&nbsp;<strong>bit less spin<\/strong>&nbsp;off the tee then you can go with the M5 or the Sub Zero option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I remember trying the M6 driver when it first came out and wasn\u2019t insanely impressed with it. I thought it was a good driver but nothing to run out and grab. When I did sit down with it for a few hours though it was pretty clear that I had it wrong and has now become one of my favorite drivers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to pick these up for the lowest price available, you can see the\u00a0<a class=\"aawp-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B07L92YDJ1?tag=gweek_end-20&amp;linkCode=ogi&amp;th=1&amp;psc=1\" title=\"Epic Flash on Amazon\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\" data-aawp-product-id=\"B07L92YDJ1\" data-aawp-product-title=\"Callaway Golf 2019 Epic Flash Driver Left Hand Project X Even Flow Green 50G Regular Flex 9.0 Degrees  Black\"><strong>Epic Flash on Amazon<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0and the\u00a0<strong><a class=\"aawp-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B07M7LC393?tag=gweek_end-20&amp;linkCode=ogi&amp;th=1&amp;psc=1\" title=\"Taylormade M6 on Amazon\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\" data-aawp-product-id=\"B07M7LC393\" data-aawp-product-title=\"TaylorMade Golf M6 Driver 10.5 Loft Right Hand Stiff Flex Shaft  Fujikura Atmos Orange Large\">Taylormade M6 on Amazon<\/a><\/strong>.
