Guest's Review of Ben Sayers M1 Driver

Good Points

It works, it's affordable, looks pretty, good shaft, decent grip. Cover is pretty good too but watch that zip runner doesn't scratch the shaft when it's closed. Head is so tall you can hardly miss. Great prices to be had.


Bad Points

Zip on head cover will eventually take it's toll on the shaft unless steps are taken. Not the sleekest looking driver (a bit like a hoover).


General Comments

The Ben Sayers M1 will contribute to straighter shots but won't simply cure your slice. Faders may end up drawing. Needs a bit of adjustment to your address to get it working correctly for you. For me a bit further back in my stance from the normal front heel position worked a treat. 6 to 8 inches. As long as you keep your head down after impact and have faith that your shot will be straight then when you do eventually look I think you'll be pleasantly suprised. In to out swing paths will not be remedied by this club. It's more likley to solve weak grips. If you do address in line with the heel then the offset will make it look like you're going to pull - unless you have your hands way forward. That causes too much spine tilt for me and leads to an opening of the of the upper body in the stance prior to imapct. Bingo, there's your slice Instead, use a normal grip, a normal swing but address 6 inches further back and DO NOT follow the ball off the tee. Yes it fells a bit cramped but the results will speak for themselves. Address more with the toe as well or you'll tend to shank (or even heel) it. It is lofty but by positioning further back I find I can make 250 - 270 without trying too hard and have gone from a killer slice to intentionally hitting the 250 yardage boards at my range with an audible thud. My slice was as bad as they come. Positioning further back also stops it from ballooning on the upswing. Let the loft do the work. This club solved my problem by forcing me to reconsider (and by allowing me) to reposition the ball - further back - and it isolated my early stance opening. This club doesn't solve it on it's own but by getting it to fit your swing it can make a real difference.
