TAYLORMADE M6 DRIVER CUSTOM FITTING at Quinta do Lago's Paul McGinley Academy

[@banditbaker1675]

Whenever I have a club fitting I don't like the fitter to give me any info about the club setup or shaft until after I have hit them and I've given my feedback. If they do it tends to set an expectation in my brain that often effects the swing that I make.

[@yourgolftravel]

Interesting thought bruh. 👍

[@sausagedodgersracing]

Just got myself a M6 only gamed it for few holes but loving it

[@yourgolftravel]

Lovely. Keep dropping them bombs bruh. 💪

[@robbiles]

Had to laugh Rosy when I saw that 262 on the screen. Hey, I got fitted in to the M5 with the Hzrdus XS, previously played the M1 (2016) with S shaft. The XS really tightened my dispersion as we. You need to put that M6 in the bag. Boom balls.

[@yourgolftravel]

We'll see what I can arrange with TM bruh. ;-)

[@tommiethatcher7265]

Great fitting session Rory 👏👏 and awesome video 👍 Are you now gaming that driver ?

[@yourgolftravel]

Unfortunately not...might have to have a word with the folks at TM! 😉

[@hbyrdut]

What shaft did you end up with?

[@cobra1995xx]

What's you AOA with driver?.. probably negative a degree or 2?

[@konstamattsson]

You can see it at 4:08 and it is 0.2 degrees positive

[@yourgolftravel]

@@konstamattsson Cheers bruh 👍

[@yourgolftravel]

Pretty much dead level...would love to get that a bit more positive and reduce the spin a bit. Not maxing out at the moment.

[@cobra1995xx]

@@konstamattsson nice catch didn't see at first

[@cobra1995xx]

@@yourgolftravel I hear ya sir.. I was always like a 1-2 negative . Last yr over the winter my whole goal was fix that. I'm now always atleast level but go to 1-3 positive.. huuuuuuge difference for me! Good luck to ya!

[@academysalon8013]

Why did you ever have a reg shaft?

[@yourgolftravel]

Got a club to film a promo vid with, hit it great so just stuck with it. Coincided with the best period of driving I've ever had.

[@academysalon8013]

Fair enough, just thought after watching the muppets for a while your swing speed was way too fast for reg. what ever works 👍🏻

[@wiggy123]

Great vid Rory. I find the whole fitting thing very weird. I don't feel comfortable having all the analysis really. Recently got fitted for a new M6 in Atmos stiff shaft. 10 yards further than my old driver just like you and tighter dispersion but like Mr crossfield says, I think you just adapt but not doubting the M6 is quality. It's very pretty too. You better treat yourself to one now bruh.

[@yourgolftravel]

Yep. We'll always ultimately override the tech but may as well squeeze every last drop out of the clubs if we can eh? Might have to give the M5 a go after seeing Mr McGinley's performance with it.

[@kevinjohnson2380]

You need to put that M6 in the bag for all future muppet your events 😁

[@yourgolftravel]

Haha I'll see what I can arrange with TM bruh.

[@andrewblundell2470]

Need to increase that Angle of Attack next #GetUpRory

[@yourgolftravel]

Yep. I'll take neutral...was expecting do be down quite a bit.

[@timothycharter5363]

Are you going to get that driver now you have had a fitting

[@yourgolftravel]

I might just have to put in a cheeky request with Taylormade Timothy! 😉

[@robinc3307]

Did you really game a reg shaft?

[@yourgolftravel]

I'm not really bothered about shafts and randomly started playing with that shaft about a year ago. Then coincided with my best period of driving in my golfing life so just stuck with it. 🤷‍♂️ But perhaps that period could have been even better with something more meaty?

[@catmanzrt]

I think if you dropped that spin down to 2400-2500 you'd be spot on.

[@yourgolftravel]

Yeh...definitely not maxing out my speed. You'll see more insight into that in tonight's long drive video with Paul McGinley.

[@logankelch4869]

Why did you only get fit for a Taylormade? I feel like you’re losing out by only checking 1 brand...

[@yourgolftravel]

I was at a Taylormade fitting centre bruh. 😉

[@jjd9990]

Did you twist your face up and buy it?

[@yourgolftravel]

Haha nah unfortunately not John. I did try and sneak it out of there in my bag though...realised it was still in there just before I went to the airport so had to run back and hand it over. 😉

[@patpat9457]

Didn’t crossfield ever say something to you about your reg shaft? I know he hates talking of shafts but a 55 gram regular is obviously not for you

[@yourgolftravel]

Coincided with the best period of driving I've ever had though?

[@JudgeZedDayZ]

Crossfield would have a head-off reviewing this video. Of course you gain speed... because you warm up. Of course you get more accurate... because you react to what came before. I know it's asking a lot of Rory to push back and seek more data (like asking to hit his original M1 again *after* hitting the others in order to test the veracity of the claimed improvement or discover that you just got dialled in hitting more shots) but if a guy in his position who should know enough to engage doesn't feel able to then why not just skip the fitting and have the guy tell you what to buy.

[@yourgolftravel]

Squeezed a mini fit into a jam packed day bruh. Would've delved deeper with more time but just wanted to show off the facility more than anything else. Great resort with great facilities.
