TaylorMade R9 Driver In My Mind

The new taylormade r9 takes over from the new technology that was first showcased in the R7 Limited.

And it comes with a special wrench that can loosen a bolt situated on the sole of the club head. By undoing this bolt the shaft can be removed from the head. The tip of the shaft will now reveal a sleeve that can be rotated to eight different settings that will ultimately adjust the R9 driver club head to the desired configuration.

The Movable Weight Technology that was first seen in the R7 Unlimited driver allowed the golfer to adjust the flight of the ball by up to 35 yards from either left to right or right to left. Taylor Made have now added a feature that allows the club face angle, loft and lie to be changed.

Swaying off the ball often leads to a long, steep backswing where the hands and arms disconnect away from the body.

In his downswing the 2011 version of Tiger Woods is tending to drop the club too far on the inside to compensate for a steep backswing. The result is he's getting trapped, leaving his hands and arms little room to swing through impact and beyond. Consequently it's causing him to hook and push some shots.

They claim that combining both technologies the taylormade r9 driver allows the golfer to adjust the trajectory from left to right and vice-versa by up to 75 yards. The new features allow the golfer to set up the driver to a ball flight path and trajectory without the need to fine tune the individual golf swing.

And its prons are the following aspects: One of the best models tested for distance and playability; high marks for consistency and accuracy, too; very stable through the hitting zone and a strong feel off the clubface; the compact head shape encourages shotmaking; customization definitely works, allowing testers to dial in their best fit; the pleasing, crisp sound is better than the r7's.

In the end, the R9 Driver was first introduced to Tour Players in the spring of 2009 and both the R9 and R9 TP are now available to the general public.
