The TM M-Family has been super popular with pros and amateurs but I haven't been a fan of TM drivers since the SLDR. There are only two clubs have hit lately that I almost just dropped the cash down from them after a couple hits. That's the Cobra King LTD and the Bridgestone JGR. They were like laser guided missiles at the range for me!

Im currently testing a Cobra F6+ against the M2, unfortunately different shafts in each, but so far so good. Right now I like the sound and feel of the M2, but I have to mess with the F6's weight.

Bridgestone JGR was the best for me, and I put it in my bag.  It may not be the longest, but it will be the most accurate.

I'm not sure how long the Bridgestone JGR was for me but it felt amazing. I guess I haven't swung a driver without an adjustable hosel in a while. It feels good.
