n the ever-evolving world of golf equipment,
2016 has continued with the tradition of pro-
viding cutting-edge innovation and technology
to help every golfer – from the tour pros to
weekend warriors – with clubs that allow for more
distance and greater accuracy than ever before.
And just when we think manufacturers have hit
the technological ceiling – given the constraints en-
forced by golf's governing bodies – along comes a
slew of new metal marvels to assist in our enjoy-
ment of the game.
So with that, let's take a look at four of the most
innovative products that have been unveiled this
year and see exactly how they benefit your game.

TAYLORMADE M2 DRIVER
WHY IT'S INNOVATIVE: Up until the Tay-
lorMade M2 driver, the ability for club
manufacturers to design a driver with
exceptional distance and exceptional
accuracy was out of the question. Tradi-
tionally you had to give up one for the
other. But at long last, the two most im-
portant features of club design beautifully
come together. This is achieved with multi-
material construction by pairing Taylor-
Made's proprietary ultra-thin, ultra-strong
7-layer Carbon Composite Crown with a tita-
nium sole, which allows for more weight lower
and farther back for better power transfer.
HOW IT BENEFITS YOUR GAME: The multi-mater-
ial construction provides a massive sweet spot for
amazing forgiveness and newfound accuracy while the
redesigned speed pocket increases ball speed at impact
for tremendous distance. The result is longer drives and
shorter irons into greens.
