What are the best set ups for distance. 

I have a 10.5 M2, cranked down to a 8.5

But I also have a 9.0 M2 head, that I want to crank down. 

Has anyone made a chart that has detailed the pros and cons of the different M2 heads with the various lie and loft angle settings? 

I have a feeling it is better to have a higher loft and crank it down, but I'd welcome thoughts from posters with handicaps under 5. Thanks.

I have not made a chart like you described.

That being said, I would figure a pureist such as yourself would only play a persimmons driver and not a forgiving M2.

Don't dismiss the knowledge of people just based on handicap. Having unwarranted prejudices is not good.

This would be impossible to generalize. It would depend 100% on the golfer's swing. Also, it depends on the golf shaft as well. This wouldn't be worth doing at all.

And you spelled this thread title "Taloymade" until I fixed it.

That's enough out of you tonight. Enjoy your timeout. Record time for a non-spammer this year, easily. Great job.

Im not sure why a person of your knowledge and experience would even ask such question here or are you just looking for replies you can slam
