Changed the title to “Best drivers of the past 5 years” Rather than best of 10, only a small thing and these are still my faves from the past decade, but fits a little better 👍

FYI that is 2017 M1 and not the 2015 version
*A NOTE ON THE TESTING* I might try and include an explanation in future videos but when testing drivers and comparing the averages I take out the longest drive and the shortest and any really poor shots caused by my terrible swing. In this test I also took out any really fast or slow swing speeds to make it fair, I hit 10/15 shots with each driver..I was shattered 😂

It might be interesting to show dispersion. If the new clubs aren't longer, are they straighter? That would be a reason to upgrade.
M1 price has just jumped on eBay 😂😂😂😂😂
Super lucky to get to try the best of the best equipment. Glad there’s guys like u that help us with thoughts and honest thoughts. My m2 is my go to,straighten out my slice and keeping up with my buds clubs.
Love how smooth and controlled your swing looks, it’s such a big goal of mine to get that type of control to my swing
The lesson here... Your old driver is probably good enough. Finally a video that makes me NOT want to upgrade :)
This just what we need Pete, direct comparison to give us a reason to shell a boat load of dosh on new or save a bit on slightly older equipment. Nice one mate😍😍👏👏
This is one of those videos that I start watching and realize that I've seen it before and then watch it to the end regardless. Love the old vs new stuff -- great video!
I bought a used TM M1 (1st gen) early last year and absolutely love it! Sound, feel, distance everything about the driver is amazing. Why spend $530 on a new driver when my $140 used M1 can do the same thing! Don't waste your money on new clubs. Buy used and save some money for green fees!!

These videos are great and goes to show that you really dont need to spend silly money on newer drivers. Love your driver swing - been practicing at home to swing like you do!!
Thank you for the Saturday morning (in Canada) video Peter! Appreciate all your hard work to bring the content!
Best video this year, more of this sort of thing please. Keep up the great work
Given that drivers over the past 5yrs have pretty much maxed out on distance, it would be good if you could redo the test, but measure dispersion instead....has forgiveness improved over this period?

I was thinking the same thing. With limitations on driver faces, etc. likely limiting distance perhaps the improvement in the new clubs is forgiveness and this might not show up as clearly with a pro doing the hitting. Given that the center of my driver's face is virtually unmarked, I'll volunteer to do the testing for forgiveness.

I have a 2012 Nike Vrs forged driver that is still longer than any driver I have hit. From Callaway Epic Flash to Taylormade Stealth. It looks, feels, and sounds better too. I never saw anyone be me playing one.
Playing the TS3 based on your review years ago and I can imagine playing anything else. Avg 300+ for me and the look and sound are unlike anything else. I'll upgrade in a couple years when a driver is worthy of it
Peter, just had to drop you a line and thank you MUCH for comparing old-school drivers with new drivers; in particular, The Sim 2 vs. The M1. After watching your vid, I found one in a pawn shop that sold for $100 (USD) which is an amazing price considering you can't touch one for under $200 on eBay. I took that driver to my round today & did REALLY well with it. I quickly realized that this is the type of driver that NEVER gets old. So again...THANK YOU for taking the time to put these sticks to the test. I watch you & Rick frequently, even the older vids. Keep 'em comin.'
Great vid Pete! Would love to see you so some 10 year differences. Like Ping G10 vs. G410. Maybe with Cobra, Callaway, and TM too? Thanks!!
I’m guessing a yard a year. But definitely more forgiveness in the modern clubs
Great video Pete, such a good comparison between them all. I've got a bit of a soft spot for the M1 but no real reason why as never had one 😂 Do you ever compare 3 Woods or is it not something you really use or concentrate on?
Astounding how similar the results are, great insight Pete. I’m currently biffing a Nike Vapor Fly, was just getting it in the sweet spot when lockdown hit! Can’t wait to get back out there. Hope to see a Pete vs Rick match ASAP! 😀
Great video! I was thinking about replacing my m1 driver thanks for saving me some money! I wish I could hit it 329 though. Would love to see you and Rick play some golf again.
I still rock my 2006 Titleist 905R, it's long, accurate and dialed in for me. I've tried every reason to change, tested out drivers for years and can't justify spending $400 on replacing what is my favorite club in my bag along with my 2004 Scotty Cameron. I even have a backup 905R just in case something happens to my 1st one lol. In reality wedges have been the only clubs in my bag that I've felt the need to replace since 2009.

I am currently using the TS3 and its the best driver i've ever had, I agree with you on the looks in comparison to the TSi3 , but only for the bottom part , I much more prefer the little arrow alignment on the crown vs the lettered alignment on the TSi3 .. Will be keeping in the bag for a long time for sure
I’m still rocking the callaway x2hot from 2013. I have a different shaft in it but still the same head and I hit that driver 270-300 consistently. Now, my brother got the sim as an upgrade from the xr and that was a difference maker for him.
These are the reviews we need to see
As Rick Shield demonstrated, for Taylormade, the SLDR was longer and lower spinning than the M1 etc., so nothing that came after was ever longer. Any improvement cost in distance but improved forgiveness. Curious to see what you find vs Callaway.
Brilliant video of testing legacy drivers. Thanks Pete. Alan from somewhere in Asia
Great video Pete. I really enjoyed this comparison. Just replaced my TS3 with the TSi3. I think I made the right choice. The sound and feel are better, and the TSi3 is more adjustable.
2017 Taylormade M2. Still love the distance
Currently using the Epic Flash. Best driver I've ever used.
Awesome video! Yes!! I'll keep my M1, i love it & the loud sound is just so satisfying.
Very good reviews, I currently still bag my M1 but had a fitting on TSI3 and found my dispersion was much tighter. I'd love to see a review on the Sub 70 driver. Nice work, thanks for the info.

Still hitting a G2! Just love the feel and sound of it. Compared to my friends who all have up to date models, it still hits further ! Will probably use it until it breaks!
Thanks Peter. I'm in the process of upgrading from an R5xl to and M6. I'm really looking forward to seeing the gains.
I still have the original M2 in my bag. I have tested some of the newer drivers. Picked up 3-8 yards depending on the newer driver. That just does not equate to $500.00 to me.

Great video and really interesting! Have you thought about doing a video to demonstrate the impact of the shafts themselves? Be interesting to see the impact multiple shafts have on the same driver head. Some of the recent reviews are almost suggesting the technology here has moved on more than in the driver heads themselves.

So it just goes to prove that if you have a decent driver from the last 7 years or so there is no point upgrading because there is no upgrade just hype and marketing, I was thinking of getting a new driver this year, don't think I will bother now!

Pete! Great video really liked the off the path comparison. Also keep us grounded with marketing hype etc👊🏾
For some golfers adjustability in a driver is paramount. I use a Callaway Big Bertha 816 Alpha DBD driver and fairways. Their adjustability lets me dial them in and hit straight shots without any manipulation of my swing. The driver has 5 weight positions: toe high or low, heel high or low, & weight removed. There are also hosel adjustments. Callaway is the only hosel adjustable driver that doesn't require turning the shaft to change positions. I can control direction of the fairways by whether I put the heavier weight towards the face or back as well as changing the total of the 2 weights to change swingweight. The 5 wood tends to be too draw or fade oriented with the 3 and 10 gram weights. (I replaced the 16 with a 10). I am switching to 8 and 6 grams to minimize the draw and fade tendencies, but still have a slight adjustability in direction. No matter which weight is forward, both settings will be closer to straight shots. I am doing the same to the 3 wood. The fairway hosels are also both adjusted to be upright. That should be the last adjustment needed. I agree on the TaylorMade M1 - lots of adjustability.

Got fitted for a TSi3 driver recently , nice big 75g extra stiff shaft 9 degrees loft...After using a 12-year old driver I can definitely notice the difference - I was hitting it dead straight and a long long way, felt amazing. Technology has come a long way since my last set of clubs, but I don't think you notice the difference as much over just 5 years. I sometimes wonder if practicing with an older driver that requires more proprioceptive and grip slip neurological feedback is advantageous towards using a newer more forgiving club as it improves your senses more, whereas if something is too easy to hit your senses full because they're not receiving enough stimulus to trigger a reaction @Peter Finch Golf

To be fair I don't think any type of club can offer the forgiveness needed from poorly struck shots hit by many amateurs. You see it on the golf course week in week out. Guys with the latest and greatest equipment unable to hit fairways consistently due to poor swing technique. In my view, amateurs will benefit most from managing expectations on the course and hitting shots accordingly. Most time this would mean hitting fewer drivers off the tee. Improving their skill level through practice would greatly benefit them and would certainly be a better investment for their money much more than the latest equipment could ever provide. Taking this to the extreme, check out Rick Shiels' video where a PRO golfer uses a 70pound package set and still scores under par. We cannot buy a golf game! Practice, hard work, discipline, dedication and course management will lower our scores, not the bullshit marketing thrown at us from these major brands every year. The idea of forgiveness is really a major marketing ploy used to benefit the pockets of these major brands. They are only incremental changes with unjustifiable price increases year on year. If you can swing a club well you will likely play good golf with even low forgiveness clubs. Distance is not everything, especially if one doesn't have the wedge game to match it!

@@azharcassim2795 Few years back i played with a guy who had clubs from the '80s. Titleist PT driver with steel shaft, Ping Blonde 5 wood which was literally wood, and irons that looked like it had a sweet spot the size of gnat's ass. He smoked rest of the group, easily scoring in the 70s. He let me try his 5 wood (beautiful club made with maple) and it felt so good. Obviously this guy was a really good golfer, but it had nothing to do with distance. I out drove him on most holes, but his wedges and putting put us to shame.

Great vid as always Pete. Always thought ping g400 max was a standout. But can't do them all. I'm thinking the older models are within a few yards of the newer ones.
This video really shows how much shaft is key in creating distance. Clubhead developments are aimed at dispersion and forgiveness. Shafts are the motor of the club and produce distance. Its the reason I still use my Ping i25 driver: the shaft is perfect for my swing and I still hit as far as I did when I got it.
Amazing Video. Great advice and luckily for me, I bought a TS3 recently. You need to have a driving comp with Matt from TXG. Beast mode.
Titleist 905R. Tried the TSi3 when I could and was expecting more of a difference in performance. Still going to be upgrading though! 😂
Fantaaastic video mate. Can you do 3 woods from the same year next? Would love to see the difference!
Borrowed a TS3 with stiff shaft last weekend as having issues with my standard driver. Wow what a difference. I came of the range with a big smile on my face.
I demoed the M1s at my home club a few years ago and loved them but the price was a little rich for me at the time. This year I got a near-mint M1 for a song and am I ever happy!
I just bought the GBB Epic this winter to replace my current driver. After this video, I'm really glad I didn't spend more on a newer one!
Still gaming the gbb epic at 8* as well but stiff shaft... need x fled now, but can confirm it’s a bit spinny. The sub zero is more for me but I didn’t know at the time
Great video Mr Finch, I'm not surprised by the results and I wouldn't be surprised if you did this same test 3 years from now and the M1 came out on top again. it was the driver that made all the other manufacturers return to the drawing board. At the time it was released nothing on the market could compete.
Thank you Pete for your honest review man. I have a TS3 and I tried out the TSi3 for fun and saw no real performance differences. TS3 is staying in my bag for a good while I think! 😊👍
I think that the technology has reached its peak when it come to drivers. All that is left is the design and looks. I base my driver on what appeals to my eye because they all perform about the same. Also price has alot to do with it. I think cobra has the best drivers at the moment even though you didn't have them on this review I feel they are the better pick when it come to price and performance. Thank you Peter for the great content. You are definitely one of my favorite to watch.
I still love my 2016 M2. I hit a buddy’s SIM with X-flex as well and really liked the flight and sound, but no different than mine.
I’d say if your looking to change anything... think about the shaft as I did... I swapped out my fitted Graphite Design tour ad DI6 (played 2yrs Great Shaft) for the new HD6 and my distance went up with a much more consistent and straighter flight...BUT last week I DID upgrade from EpicGBB 280-290yds to the epic Max and dialed the head in with adjustable slider and bumped up average to 310-315total.... go get fit at a good shop with many choices.... it’s worth the money... if you’re a MID-LOW handicap it’s a easy choice... if you’re high handicapper invest in lessons... Pete great video as always....
This makes me feel good about my TS3 lol I have a hazardous smoke shaft in it & LOVE that driver. It will take a lot to replace it.
Pete i went to tsi3 from ts3 not through distance gains but purely on looks, sound and better consistency. This is as close to the perfect driver in my eyes you will get.
Awesome video! Loving the new studio by the way
I just realised I turned notifications on for you channel. Worth it! Cheers

My guy! Thank you
I use a PING G410, I really like it. I don't like how a lot of companies are getting away from the adjustable clubs. I want my club to grow with me, if I need to move a weight to the draw bias early on, but then get better I don't want to have to buy a new club just because my swing got better. Which is why I went with the 410 Max and adjust to Draw rather than the SFT. I want to adjust the weight back to neutral if I get better.
Rocking a PXG 0811 x Gen 2 and still love that thing and plus it is just gorgeous
Awesome video. Would have been do to see the dispersion patterns to get an idea of which is more forgiving.
Great review, Pete. I prefer the TM M2 but all these drivers performed well.
Gaming Cobra F9 with a Mitsubishi Tensei CK Blue, regular flex. Bought it “old “ last year, saved $100 US and reshafted it. Lot of ball marks on the center of the club face
