Very much so. And my miss will beat that heel screw into oblivion so I hope it would be forgiving haha
I want to hit.
From a true sense I would say the screws are there to remind and show people that resin is in place. Visual tech works. Similar to the way jailbreak is shown on the sole.
Thats also just one person's experience with it. Either way you go, Im sure youll be happy, but dont get hung up on one persons thoughts, no matter who it is or what the product is. Shiels may see something wonky with the new Callaway driver too, doesnt mean its not good product.

Provides shelf appeal. I didn't watch the DVD2 season, but from what I hear, that was a big topic of discussion.
Man, 435cc is calling me.
as a lower launch, lower spin player, wouldn't this model work against you?
that m6 sole looks very similar to the speedback sole. and holy reduction in weight in the m6! 46g lighter sounds like a real challenge in swingweighting.
between the two, i think m6 is more my speed so i would be curious to try it.
is it just me, or is there little to no copy discussing the fact that there are freaking SCREWS on the face of the driver?! why are they there?
i hadn't heard of the atmos orange shaft before. i'd be curious to learn more about it as an option in the m6.
As with all drivers, go through a fitting, but it is funny that TM’s marketing line of “everyone gets faster” was immediately dispelled by Rick Shiels showing no higher ball speeds vs M3/M4. When they say “everyone”, it should mean everyone... With the launch and spin he was getting, looks like TM should’ve marketed toward their holy grail of 17* launch, and 1700 spin....
Lord knows, it’s impossible for “everyone” to be faster these days, so why they went that route, I have NO idea.

So are the holes simply an elite could into the driver head? I would really love to see a deconstructed head to see what it's all about under the hood.Similar to the irons or UDi that have screws out on the toe, they are there to allow TaylorMade to inject a varying amount of resin into each location to tune the driver right near the legal limit. I should have a bit more information on it in a bit to really dive into the value.

I'll have to check them out this evening. It's too hard to look like I'm working when watching videos. Reading a forum is much easier to get away withThere’s a couple of the vids out there that have some shots of the head cut open to see. It’s pretty cool.
If you miss that far on the heel, no driver is saving you, no matter the tech. Lol
Glad you asked, as I just got confirmation that I could share a photo.
Basically, each location has a cavity that is filled with a certain amount of resin. No two heads are the same, and as these photos show, the difference between the two can be great or small. It's all about tuning to that number using their algorithm. It is then sealed and glued with these screws, which have no genuine impact on flight according to their data.

I thought the story behind it was that due to manufacturing tolerances, it was impossible to gaurantee the face was to the limit, even in the center. By them creating the face to be illegally hot, they can control the COR and dial it back right to the limit. So, an off the rack driver may have measured 235 on CT or 245 (just throwing out numbers as an example). Now they can gaurantee that each driver head on the shelf to be a certain number (don't know what max CT is).DISCLAIMER - I haven't watched the Rick Shiels video or read the TM website blurb
Based on what little I have read, are they hinting that the 'everyone gets faster' line implies to people who don't hit the centre of the driver on every shot?
From what I understand, the sweetspot on every driver these days is pretty much at the limit, and it is off-centre hits where the loss in ball speed is now less and less?
