Thanks a lot for this video!! I lowered my loft for more distance and I lost my draw, now I know it’s opened the club face! I’ll look into the weights to see if I can cure that next.
I've had me M4 for over 2 seasons now. First thing I did was crank the loft down 8°. Ever since then, I've been fighting the ball right when my normal has been a gentle draw. Now I know why. And now I'll never not get custom fit again. 😅 Thanks.
I just got a used 8.5° M9 460° today. I am excited to see how the lower loft will feel. I have used a 10° driver for a few years now and routinely hit high draws with a good carry distance but no roll out. Hopefully, I’ll get more roll and decreased backspin.
I had this all ass backwards for years. Fighting a draw i though I was opening the face by putting it higher. I just reset all my woods I can't wait to see how I hit it now! Thanks so much for this video cause I used to crush my driver until I closed the face thinking I was opening it! I haven't even hit my driver in years just my 3W which was a high draw that I had to fight off to hit somewhat straight. So excited I was ready to just give up with the woods
Keep in mind that any adjustable club cannot fix a bad swing. But they can make a good swing better as it has for me. I have two of these clubs (9.5 & 14). They both work for me AFTER I fixed my swing error (mostly outside in = bad bad slice).
I appreciate this video, helps understand what the notches mean. But maybe a more in depth review of how each setting would impact your flight in practice. i.e: -.75 degrees of loft and a 1.5+ open, how would that compare to the opposite of that
So I’ve recently over the past year started hitting consistent straight drives around 280 but the launch/apex is so high, I have a 10.5 degree M4, and am wanting aome RECOMMENDATION’s on optimal loft degree to set it to
If you decrease loft 2 degrees, you will open the face more regardless of the lie angle. If you want to close the face you need to ADD loft either way.
@@flyingmanwhich8951 There is LH adjusters also as I have both. They are reversed so no biggy although std is still std and 180deg is still same loft but flat lie.
Hi thanks. So if you lower the loft, will it also make the lie angle flatter? And if you raise the loft , it will make the lie angle more upright? Am I understanding that correctly?
I recently bought a Taylormade M2 driver and I would like to reduce my slice. I'm left handed so would the same information about closing the club face for a right handed golfer be the same advice for a lefty?
I’m lefty as well and tend to fade as well. You need to look at the adapter on the shaft if it says RH you will need to loft down to close the face and to help with the slice. Only reason I know this I found out the hard way 😂 couldn’t figure why I was hitting it so far right and turned out I had a RH shaft lol. So if it is RH just loft down which is closing the face and increasing loft
cgasucks don’t need lessons bud 😂 play twice a month with no range time and shoot 78-82. Some out there hit the range multiple times a week and play every weekend and still can’t get close to shooting that.
@@dustinjohnson267 Thanks for watching! you are correct if the adapter says RH on a left handed head the settings will be incorrect. To solve you need to flip the hosel 180 degrees.
Hi Brandon yes the same information about closing the club face for a right handed golfer is the same for a lefty. I would suggest flipping it around to the back of the hosel to the 4* upright setting, and possible give yourself more loft. Make sure your driver shaft hosel says LH if it is a RH hosel you will have to do everything completely opposite (flipping hosel 180*)
I have 2 quick questions. I have an M6 D-Type driver. I thought it would help reduce my slice. What loft / lie setting should i use to reduce my slice? Recommendations? My 2nd question is this: Can i use the hosel from my M6 driver with a new Sim Max driver head? Thanks
Hi Jon thanks for watching! Yes the M6 D-Type is a draw bias driver as the face sits more closed and center of gravity is more in the heel of the club. I also recommend adjusting the hosel to the upright setting (flip it to the back side) 2nd question: yes you can use the hosel from the M6 driver in the new SIm Max head. All TaylorMade sleeves are able to be used in all of TaylorMade's drivers that are not fixed.
My suggestion is to flip the hosel 180* to the upright setting first. You can always try the higher position as well but if you already hit it high try upright. - Thomas
The burner drivers will not have an adjustable hosel, but if you have a TaylorMade driver with an adjustable hosel you could do two thing 1) +1.5 or +2.0 degrees or put the driver in the upright setting. - Thomas
Two options. On the back side there is an upright setting. I would try that. Other option is to increase the loft by 2* what you are actually doing is closing the club face 4* - Thomas
Hi David, thanks for the comment! The lie angle has to do with how the club sits on the ground. An upright lie angle slightly closes the clubface while a flatter lie angle will open the clubface a little bit.
@@2ndswing are the shaft adapter for L & R'hand clubs the same or is a Lefthanded adjustable shaft specifically for a Lefthanded Clubhead? I guess what I am asking are they identical & interchangeable or are they equal but opposite & not interchangeable b/w Left & Right-handed driver Clubheads?. Also is there anyway I can adjust my M6 D clubhead so that I have Low loft (10 or below)+ Low (flatter) Lie & also a Closed Clubface!!!?. Am I correct in thinking that I can't acheive a flatter lie angle without opening the face a little. I am trying to achieve a flatter lie angle with a closed face & getting a fair bit confused. Also on my M6 Draw driver in the std loft position (10.5) is my clubface in a square or closed position (by how much). Is the changing of the lofts only changing by + or - the degree of Closedness from the Std original Loft. Or am I actually opening or closing the degree of clubface from an original 10.5deg position (which is square or actually closed a bit?). I hope I haven't confused you as much as myself. Thank you.
CONFUSED TOTALLY!!!! So I have the M4 10.5 degree driver it is set at the "Standard setting". If I want to slightly lower the loft AND get a slight draw bias (since I have a slight fade normally) HOW DO I SET IT TO THIS SETTING? Is it possible?
The only option you have would be to play around with the upright settings. If you want a slightly lower loft you may want to consider a 9* head (in upright or by turning the loft to say 10*). I would try the upright position or even putting the loft up a couple notches. Keep in mind a fade will lead to more spin and a higher ball flight so if your direction is corrected the ball may actually fly slightly lower. -Thomas
Hello I have a taylor made sim max driver 10.5 standard stiff shaft. I am struggling hitting the ball good. I am finding I am getting the ball too high and not much distance and keep hooking the ball to the right. Any tips on what I can do make the driver easier to help me out.
I just upgraded my burner 9.5 to a M4 8.5 but Lofted to the Higher setting. I want it as close as 9.5 as possible, would clicking it down one notch make it like my 9.5 burner?
Hi Tristan, apologize for taking so long to respond to your question. Loft will be close but you are closing the face if you increase the loft a notch. This may make the club a little draw bias (closed face) I do suggest getting the correct loft on the driver head then make any adjustments. You also may want to try two notches if you are not hitting it as high as your older burner.
I have a Cobra F6 driver set at 9.5 degrees draw. Due to being delofted but in a draw setting would the face be back at neutral or would the face angle still be open?
Assuming you have reduced the loft to 9.5, the face angle would still be open. The draw designation that Cobra uses is a result of creating a more upright lie angle. Thanks.
I'm confused ..... so if I increase my loft on my 10.5 m5 it will close my face an cure my slice but if I address the ball with a square face it's back to standered it's just like the shaft has spun around and nothing is different, am I missing something here?
When you adjust ie increase the loft dont look at the face but the silver front edge at address. If you then look at the face below you will see its closed.
I have a Sim Driver 10.5, I lowered it two notches. He said it opens the face if you lower it. He said it is Fade bias if you lower and open the face. Shouldn’t it be more Draw bias if it is lowered and the face opens ?
Try adding loft. Start from 2 degrees and work back to standard. Adding loft closes the face although it will add some spin and ball flight will likely be a bit higher. I am experimenting with standard loft but 4 full degrees upright right now as I am 6’4”
When making a hosel adjustment if you increase loft from say 10.5* to 12.5* (HIGHER setting) it closes the face from 10.5* to 8.5* (LOWER setting) it opens the face. Focus more on the face angle adjustment than the loft and if you need less loft on a driver I would switch heads to a 9* first before any adjustments - Thomas
What do you recommend for me I always just slice my drive pretty bad... I just got an m6 what setting do you think I should use? I just want low ball spin and no slicing.
Hi, thanks for the comment and for watching the video! Try the stated loft upright setting, which can be found by turning the hosel 180 degrees from the standard setting. This will increase the lie angle by four degrees to make it more upright, but the loft will stay the same. This should help combat your slice. The other settings that create a more upright lie angle also create more loft, which would create more spin.
They need a sleeve for FLAT ballflights too, rather than ONLY Upright and draw biases. I still hit the ball at a 7.5 degree -1.5 setting higher than any club in my bag
Hey I had a quick question. So I have the sim max, and when I try to loosen it to take off the head and change the loft sleeve, it starts making the clicking noise it makes when fully tightened when I turn it anti-clockwise (to the left) and I can’t turn it to the right as it just doesn’t move. I’m scared I am going to break it if I try to force it too hard. Any suggestions? It’s a left handed driver if that changes anything
Thank you for watching this video. It would be very convenient if the loft and lie was not affected. Keep in mind when fitting for a driver its more important to get the correct loft fitted to the player first, then golf shaft and then make some adjustments if necessary. For example fitting the player into a 9 or 10.5* driver first based on launch and spin numbers then making the loft/lie adjustments based on fade/draw tendencies, rather than a giving a player a 10.5* driver head, realizing that the player launches the ball or spins the ball to much and dropping the loft down, which actually opens the face.
@@thomascampbellgolf I like to say get fitted for the swing you want, not the swing you have. If someone wants to beat his buddies this weekend, maybe get fitted for the swing you have. But if a player accustomed himself to more advanced equipment, (heavier, stiffer, flatter, less loft), then that player might have a better chance at improving technique and developing a powerful, correct, repeating swing. Dress for the job you want, not the job you have.
I don't mean to criticise, but this is a really misleading explanation of how an adjustable hosel works. These settings change loft & face angle but not at the same time. If you loft down, yes the club will sit open, but that will have no effect on the loft. If you keep that face angle through to impact, you'd hit a slice shape with exactly same loft as stated on the head. To actually implement the loft change, the player needs to square the face up before grounding, or subconsciously square the face at impact. Tom Wishon has spoken at length on this subject.
Hi Thomas Campbell here, thank you for your comment. For this video we simply are educating our viewers what TaylorMade educates fitters with regards to loft. Yes you are correct when you loft down the face sits open and the club head will not exactly be 2* lower in loft. Similarly for lofting up the face sits closed. If you want two degrees less or more loft, switch to a clubhead that has 2* less or more loft, don't just adjust the loft sleeve. It can be misleading how it is presented, which is why I mentioned this towards the end of the video at 5:22
This adjustability is a hoax , if the shaft is not trued to the face of the club head , nobody knows where the Hell the ball is going IMO!!! I have one on my driver , at draw it goes straight not complaining on standard it slices like crazy my buddies club slices on draw and he never slices!🤔

What is the best setting for someone who slices ?
@@willtulip5328 start with increasing loft in stages. If your slice is bad then a stronger grip and club shallowing is more effective..
@@willtulip5328upright
Very thorough. More than anyone else. Thx
Thank you for watching!!

KeEp In MiNd
Shoot I’ve just been playing with all of the settings... A lot of fun!
Can you go through the fitting and confirm the best hosel setting, then get the club built so that the grip and shaft are aligned to your preference?
The adjuster is glued on so yes, however I suggest a grip with no alignment as i change mine depending on wind etc.
I appreciate this video, helps understand what the notches mean. But maybe a more in depth review of how each setting would impact your flight in practice. i.e: -.75 degrees of loft and a 1.5+ open, how would that compare to the opposite of that

Why does rhe r11 and sim max D use different torque screws?
If I decrease the loft 2 notches but on the upright setting will that in theory counteract the open face and square the face more?
If you decrease loft 2 degrees, you will open the face more regardless of the lie angle. If you want to close the face you need to ADD loft either way.
I just noticed that my left handed M6 driver has a right handed hosel tip. Do you know whether the settings are reversed???
They are reversed - a fellow lefty lol
Pretty sure that's how they all come. So annoying.
@@flyingmanwhich8951 There is LH adjusters also as I have both. They are reversed so no biggy although std is still std and 180deg is still same loft but flat lie.
I'm confused by lie angle. Is 60 degrees flatter or more upright than 59 degrees?
More upright. Will promote more of a draw shape.
Thank you! so is 56-degree lie angle the default for most TM drivers such as SIM2? and the only configuration with a square face?
No. The full upright setting at 60 degrees offers the same standard face angle and standard loft setting as well.
Hi thanks. So if you lower the loft, will it also make the lie angle flatter? And if you raise the loft , it will make the lie angle more upright? Am I understanding that correctly?
More so open/closed. Less loft, more upright.
Are the numbers on the illustration shared the same for todays SIM2 drivers?
Yes the hosel adjustments for are still consistent for SIM 2, Stealth etc - Thomas

@@armandpelser1790 correct haha have fixed my grip and swing and rarely slice now
Are the adjustments the same for left handed driver or the opposite?meaning increasing closes the face and decrease opens the face
Check the adjuster as there is both LH and RH. If using opposite to head then increase and decrease is reversed. Std and flat (180 deg) are the same.
Do you still grip it the same using the alignment on grip
Did you find this answer out? I’m curious myself
What does the lie angle do and is the upright for taller people?
