Just brilliant I've had 3 Taylormade drivers and didn't know about the upright lie angle even though id seen it written there. Great video Mike thank you.

@carpykeith 5 лет назад

Great explanation! I’m looking forward to trying some of these to help me!

@GenesisG80 4 года назад

Although I have a Tour Edge Exotic EXS driver it does have seven of these adjustments. I was unsure what the various setting would do, so this was an excellent video and just what I was looking for! Great video and I especially found the chart very valuable.

@BEAN9999 4 года назад

I have also had many tm drivers,fairway woods and gapr lo and did not know this. You are awesome. I was wondering why I cranked my m5 tour down to 7 degrees and it was slicing way more than 9 degree setting and my original one was doing the same set at 9.5 degree but I have it all fixed thanks to you. Thank you again.

I have the M4 10.5 with regular flex that has the similar loft adjustment. My local range has just had launch monitors installed so I will try increasing the loft to reduce my 20 meter fade curve. Thanks for the lie explanation and being a lefty to double check the shaft is correct.

@austinakemann3551 4 года назад

I am a left and for the longest time had a bad slice. Lots of practice i now play a nice looking fade. About 2 months ago I bought the M6 and it’s a 9* but like Mike said, I turned the loft to “highest” and now I am hitting the ball straiter and further than I ever have before. I wasn’t aware that the UPRT setting could help straiten those slices out tho? Good to know! Great video

Still playing with R11 tp driver and 5 wood, just switched them to upright lie plus 1 notch of loft and my F8 3 wood to 14.5 draw setting from 14.5 std!

Great video! Any chance you’d consider doing the same for the Cobra F9 fairway ? I’m struggling to find info on it. I’m trying to open the face a touch and possibly flatten the lie as well as I’m finding it to be a touch draw biased. Also, I’ve heard a good hack for this is to put a RH sleeve on LH club to get more fade bias. I’ve searched for info on that too with no luck!

@PartyPete199 4 года назад

Brilliant. Was going to change my M4 9.5 because of occasional hooks, however, altering the lower lie angle open by 1.5 degrees and reduced loft by .75 I’m smashing it in control . I thought by increasing my loft and spin I would reduce my hook and yet it’s nearly the opposite. A god send this video as I thought it was me 🙏🏻

@BW-ze3mg 4 года назад

Hey Mike. Late to the video but thank you for the explanation. Was also a bit confused on the settings. I have an M6 D-type. My biggest question however is am I still going to grip the club at the same spot on the grip regardless of where I adjust the setting?

@elishamckinley4269 4 года назад

I have the M5 setting on the Upright...I've played Ping drivers and their lie angles always gave me the shot shape for a push fade, the upright on the M5 has my ball starting more right of target...I'm a lefty, I do have a question, when should you change the setting to close the club face vs increasing the lie?

@ryanlaii443 5 лет назад

I was gaming a 44" shaft and I had it set on Upright. Tried all the settings and found that Upright was the right setting. It was straight and far......

@waynepadley1337 5 лет назад

I have my M6 driver set at 14 degrees so this helps me to hit a draw easier. Also i have a A flex shaft for the first time and this combination has given me an extra 15 yards. My swing speed is only 83 so I need all the help I can get !

@mattlaw2993 3 года назад

Just watched this and have an M6 10.5 with a stiff shaft. my miss is a slice and been playing the club in its 'Standard' setting so my question is which will be better 'Higher' or Upright' setting to try and make my slice smaller?

@Godisnotjesus1967 3 года назад

Hi. I have a Cobra driver. My Q is.....!.....What is the lowest loft/degree adaptors can be set to. Believe me!....I need a 5° loft. Yes five degrees. Lets not argue. Bryson de C use a 5.5°......probably custom built by Cobra. If you didnt know.....The late Calvin Pete who held driving accuracy nr.1 spot for 10yrs used a 4degree driver. I naturally hitball high. So I loose a lot of distance as result. Higher equals wider.....fact! Lower is straighter!

@Adam_H_Official 4 года назад

Thanks for that, I've always had a push fade as a bad shot and a slight pull fade ( so comes back to center ) on a good shot. Neither is ideal and never knew about the upright lie angle. Will try that tonight to see if it helps. I've got an M6 D-Type ( 12 degree ), I won it hence the higher degree but starting to think I need a custom fit, hopefully this will be a quick fix for the time being

@midlifebiker7424 3 года назад

If you use a RH hosel in a LH head will it just reverse the setting ie +1 is -1 ???

@NomadJoe0323 5 лет назад

So plus 2, meaning it would go from 9 to 11, would close the face? You would think that it would be the other way around?

@mattdonovan4860 5 лет назад

@chriscerta9821 2 года назад

Question about the sleeve… if I have a tendency to slice ball left to right… and I loft up/close face… but my setup remains the same at address.. wouldn’t I still slice the ball if I’m coming over the top or leave my face open at impact? Many thanks

@dondasher58 5 лет назад

Shew.... lots of info! But it’s understandable...Oddly enough I hear of a growing number of people (I play with several) that want the standard non adjustable drivers. I’m curious if others have felt that way in other parts of the country or world. Personally I use an adjustable driver and hybrids. I enjoy the tweaking of getting my most consistent shots and yardages particularly with my hybrids. Thanks!

@MichaelNewtonGolf 5 лет назад

I personally think adjustable drivers a good thing, multiple drivers in one......got to be good. UNLESS that particular golfer is a tweaker, moving settings every round to try and find the ideal setting. Goes back to the importance of getting it fitted then sticking with the setting.

@dondasher58 5 лет назад

Michael Newton Golf I agree. Once I found my settings it hasn’t changed. I’m dying to try some of the new drivers!

@mickbanks969 2 года назад

Thanks Michael, very useful, what would you suggest as optimum settings for a right handed golfer push most shots and occasional slice. Thanks.

@MichaelNewtonGolf 2 года назад

Either upping the loft or putting in the upright setting 👍

@mickbanks969 2 года назад

Thanks did it for a game yesterday, (upright)about 5 decent (for me) drives, but still generally pushing, must still be cutting across ball. Been the same since I took up golf, never been able to cure fault.

@waynekelly6017 5 лет назад

Could you tell me if the Ping hosel has an upright setting

@shawnmich3779 5 лет назад

M5 9 degree in lowest loft 2* flat setting worked great for me. My tendency to hook has been helped dramatically in this setting.

@TP-xe2hi 5 лет назад

One thing no one ever seems to mention with these adjustable loft setting hozzels is you have to keep your hands aligned and positioned correctly on the grips every time. For me it's very easy to set the club down at address and let the grip slip to a comfortable position...at this point it really doesn't matter how you've locked the nozzle into place. Am I getting this right? I think fitters need to remind the golfer to make sure they hold the grip to the imprinted pattern.

@MichaelNewtonGolf 5 лет назад

Yes true but really depends on the player. Some golfers react to the change in face direction and you can see them trying to alter to square up again. Where others aren't too aware and just let the club sit as it would do which is the best way as then allows the setting to work as it should.

@TheDrake119 4 года назад

Thank you for this! I just picked up the M4 Driver and have been slicing the sh** out of it... I’m going to move it to high and see how it goes (: Thanks again.

@warwickingle9936 3 года назад

I went to upright on mine, 180 from std and it defo helps. I find the silver shape effects my set up though visually, prefer the slimmer M6. Perhaps the D tyoe may be a better option?

@mrwoo33 5 лет назад

Great video Mike, is it similar with the m4 as I'm a bit clueless

@carpykeith 5 лет назад

Andy Wood no doubt Mike will help you but I’m particularly clumsy and am still using R11 tp driver and 5 wood, had it set to what I thought was 9.5 turns out it was 9.75 according to this video, noted the settings, (take a pic on your phone if really worried before adjusting), then unscrewed to find the uprt setting! If mine which is WAY older than yours has it, I’m guessing yours will be the same!! Good luck and good driving!👍🏼🏌🏼‍♂️

@Ryan-fx7jx 5 лет назад

Question Michael - is it still true that Tom Wishon proved, that driver loft with adjustable loft doesn't change unless you square the face? Adjusting the 'loft' and leaving it open or closed doesn't actually change loft and just face angle.

@keithfinley2939 5 лет назад

No disrespect to Mike but why would you think he is in a position to validate one of the industry's most knowledgeable fitter's information?

@ldh7395 5 лет назад

The hosel determines the loft and lie and not the shaft! You would need to bend the shaft to change either

@station2station544 5 лет назад

Tom Wishon didn't prove it. It's common knowledge that you need to square the face for your loft changes to occur.

@jespervehnmunk8778 3 года назад

Still trying to find out: will an M6 head fit on the shaft for my M2? Discovered these hosel settings on Tuesday, dialed it in (was on lower loft, increasing my slice 🤦). Now it’s suddenly chasing fairways, but at an altitude. Thinking of getting an M6 9.5degree and then closing it a bit.

@jeremiahminter7541 3 года назад

I have a m5 with tensi shaft, picked up a d type m2 driver, d type is the anti slice model, and have been using the m2 head on my m5 shaft which is x stiff, m2 shaft was regular, adapter hosels look the same, sure m6 has same adapter, hope this helps

@mwillgo 5 лет назад

Is this the same for the M1 fairway wood. I play an M1 3 HL 3 Wood. I tend to slice. Would it be more helpful to go with an M5 15 degree 3 wood and up the loft which would then close the face?

@Bellaneph 4 года назад

This video shows the hosel chart that has different numbers than all other charts i've seen. It shows the lowest lie angle to be 58 degrees. Other charts I see have the lowest lie angle to be 56 degrees? Does anyone know why there are 2 charts with different numbers for the same club? And which is correct? I was about to buy one of these until I saw these numbers. Now not sure what to do...

@korea6791 3 года назад

I am also qurious this question. Why do they have two different manuals? Which is correct that the standard loft is 58 degree or 56 degree.

I'm left handed and I just recently got the M4 D Type because I do tend to slice a lot, what setting would you recommend?

@MichaelNewtonGolf 4 года назад

Armando Saenz adding the most amount of loft will close the clubface to the max. Move too ‘higher’ setting

@pw9830 4 года назад

@@MichaelNewtonGolf hi Michael, might be a crazy question...is the sleeve built accordingly for left handed golfers? or do 'we' have to do the reverse because the sleeve is built for right handed clubs? in other words, if i want to open the face i would actually move the sleeve to the 'higher' setting even though that is the opposite of what you would do for a RH player

@sullysuckafish 3 года назад

I know this is an old video but can someone with this driver tell me, can you use the upright setting combined with loft adjustments? For instance could I play it at -2 degrees but have it still be upright to offset the open face?

@TheLock1980 3 года назад

Vs. std loft, at LOWER position you get -2°loft +2°lie. If you prefer the more upright position +4°lie but te driver will play the standard loft stamped on the head.

@HI96746 4 года назад

Can you do a M4 driver sleeve similar to this? Or is it the same sleeve?

@otherone1234 Год назад

I'm new and confused lol. I thought reducing a club's loft it automatically closes the club face, not opens it. Being new to golf I'm sure I'm missing something? Thanks,

@MichaelNewtonGolf Год назад

Basically the adapter on the shaft tip is slightly off centre when you look at it so when fixed into the head it’s that that changes to face angle and loft. It sounds wrong but yes when you add loft it closes the face and vice versa. 👍

Where have you been, Teaching? This year setting is different than previous Taylormade drivers. This year will not fit me, 62 degrees is too upright, 58 is too flat unless shaft is 45.5 + in length. They used to be 59-60 degrees standard with square face. I think I will stay with my M-1, & Ping g-400. All this info is on Taylormade web site, stated under Tuning Manual. Too much stuff, excessive weight where it is not needed in a driver, down the hosel.

I do believe if a golfer has a slice more often than not it is because the shaft is too stiff and instead of buying all these really expensive gadget clubs go to a professional club fitter for the correct golf club that fits you and will no doubt be cheaper than the clubs from the golf supermarkets
