Golfing Year-Round!
I played 9 holes yesterday with the new M4 Mashie 59g S and used it whenever possible, moving the ball to 190yds on the 4 par3s and the 3 par 4s, hitting multiple balls in each instance. The initial results are positive and the reviews thus far on this thread ring true. The club, even if it's swingweight is D4, feels light in the hands, with most the weight in the head. I hit good shots when I toned it down, and when I really tried to kill it, it'd go 'left with a draw'. One of the things I already notice is that you can really work the ball both ways with this club. I hit straight shots, a couple fades, and draws at will. Another great thing is that the good 'ole GPS is telling me the ball is going almost exactly as far as my 4 iron, so the M4 can be slotted right into the bag b/w the 3 Fli-Hi and 5 iron w/o missing a beat. There is much more of an offset than what I have on any of my other clubs, including my Taylormade 2H, and I like it. The Miyazaki shaft feels good; very stable for as light as it is. Very similar to the Bassara UL shaft in my driver.
Thus far the Mashie M4 is what I was looking for in a 4 hybrid, easy to hit, high trajectory, workable, and pretty dang good out of the rough.
