    Default Taylormade M3 driver

    Does anyone play this?? I’ve got a head at the moment that I had a couple of swings with yesterday. My first thought was it sounded disgusting, like a gross slap sound. Granted I only hit two balls with it but was very uninspired. I currently play the original M1 and it’s much better sound and feel wise. I’ll be taking it to the range to get a better feel for it, but first impression wasn’t good. Anyone else feel that way?

    Make sure it isn't cracked, not completely uncommon.

    Yeah that’s what I’m thinking. I love my M1, only driver I’ve liked since has been the TS3.Definitely not cracked, came from a good source.

    I've seen a couple that were ridiculously hard to see. TS3 sounds good.

    Yeah I’m going to give the M3 a proper go this week and see how it feels for me. Had the 915 D3 before my M1. Love the sound of the TS3

    I may have been to quick to judge the M3, now that I’m warm and swinging, it’s coming off very very nicely and the flappy sound is gone!

    I had the M1, then the M3, went back to the M1; felt the same, so sold the m3 to get some money back

    But the 2016 M2 was pretty awesome too....

    I love the idea of playing the 440 head, i reckon it would be really nice. I played a 440 M1 prior to getting mine, but ended up with the 460.

    I just put a 8.5° 460 M3 in the bag and I've been impressed. The sound is on par with most modern drivers but the flight it produces with the stock shaft is great.
