Our TaylorMade M4 vs. TaylorMade M2 driver test took place on the range and the course at Saadiyat Beach GC in Abu Dhabi.
The TaylorMade M2 was the driver I used for most of 2017 so it was going to be interesting to see if there were clear improvements with the M4.
TaylorMade M4 vs. TaylorMade M2 – First impressions
In terms of head size they look exactly the same. They are both nice and big and fill you with plenty of confidence at address.
I think that’s one of the main reasons I opted to use the M2 last year because I always felt happy over the ball.
The M4 does have a silvery-grey finish compared to the white on the M2 and I still can’t quite make my mind up which I think looks best.
The M4 does look a bit cleaner and classier but the white and black has always appealed to me.
TaylorMade M4 vs. TaylorMade M2 – The technology
The two new key pieces of technology in the TaylorMade M4 driver are Twist Face and Hammerhead. Yes, they do sound like characters from a bad horror film.
We went into greater detail on this technology in our original M4 driver review but twist face is to help your heel and toe strikes go straighter and hammered helps keep the spin down.
