Mixture of Classic and Modernity Taylormade R9 Driver Review
The Taylormade R9 driver, is to replace the Taylormade R7, one of golf's most iconic drivers in 2009 we can reveal. The new TaylorMade R9 will be fully adjustable, for the first time ever, and will combine three moveable weights with a new Taylormade technology, called Flight Control Technology. TaylorMade clubs are the most adjustable you can find in any golf shop.
The R9 Driver represent the most technologically advanced driver in the company’s history, building on and improving the innovations that made the r7 range such a massive hit with golfers. The R9 uses the brand new Flight Control Technology (FCT) which allows the golfer to change the face angle, lie angle and loft of the R9 by using a simple wrench. Using a simple bolt positioned in the clubhead the R9 can be used in eight different positions and golfers can change position in seconds. This adaptability allows the R9 to promote shots which are higher, carry further and move right to left, which are lower, controlled and move left to right or which are neutral, mid height and straight. This makes the Taylormade R9 driver one of the most workable and adaptable clubs on the market. Tournament pro’s regularly have their TaylorMade drivers tweaked but the R9 is one of the first clubs to offer this lever of control to every golfer. Movable Weight Technology also plays a big part in the R9 driver with three weight ports in the clubhead and each driver coming with one 16 gram and two 1 gram weights. By changing the weights to help promote draws, fades or straight shots golfer actually have access to 24 different driver types with just one R9.
The Taylormade R9 driver has been designed to reflect the very best of classic golf club design mixed with the modernity for which TaylorMade are famed. The clubhead incorporated Ultra-Thin-Wall technology and the triangular shape promotes high MOI. Combined with the Inverted Cone Technology that has impressed across the TaylorMade range these development help make the R9 a club that is popular in every golf shop and leads the golfing world in technological advance but which is also incredible forgiving and easy to hit.
