TaylorMade R11 TP Driver Golf Club

This driver is the same head as the normal R11 the only difference is the shaft which is 65 grams instead of the options of 70 or 60 grams. All three shafts are made by Fujikura and are the "blur" model. Looking at Fujikura's website they only make a "X" shaft at 65 grams. Taylormade offers an "X" shaft in 60 grams (Still a Blur) which must be a contract shaft for them. I went with the TP shaft due to the lower torque and different kick point. I believe that the TP shafts helps lower the lauch angle some which can also be changed with the settings on the driver head. One thing not directly advertised is what changing the loft on the head does to the direction of the ball flight. In the pamplet they provide lowering the loft using the head will cause the ball to fade while increasing the loft will cause the ball to draw more. I went with a different shaft because this would lower the ball flight and not effect the direction of the ball.

Comparing this to my Callaway X Tour driver (9 Degrees) this driver has a flat ball flight with much reduced ball spin. This has increased my driver distance easily by 15 yards due to actually getting some roll out of my ball.

In as much as I think one should be rewarded for advertisement, I feel compelled to announce the following:
1: Taylormade drivers are my driver of choice over Callaway,
Cobra and Cleaveland.
I have had the pleasure oh playing the rest and my ultimate satisfaction has led me to be the proud owner/Player of, R-7
R-9 supertri and the now marvelous R-11TP. This club has improved my game on an overall by providing me with an additional 11 yards off the tee. The pronounced visual appearance of this piece of equipment appears intimidating enough to others and instill the confidence in its hitting, hence it appears that you can do NO WRONG. I have recommended the R-11 to friends and it is being given deep and fovorable consideration. The purchase through ebay was rather simple, easy and reliable to the point where the merchandise arrived 2 days earlier than I was promised. Taylormade and ebay, I would declare as a match made in Heaven.

Well after paying for the R-11 TP Driver, I checked with Taylormade and found out that it was NOT an R-11 TP Driver. It is a standard model that goes for an average of $100 less. The Buyer had no idea how the TP model is engineered and refused to take a return. Then he got upset that I wrote a negative comment. I have not played with the driver yet and will try and sell it since I don't want the item. I have not been back on Ebay since this purchase and learned a valuable lesson about checking on items before paying for them. Sonetimes good retailers are your best bet to get want you pay for.

The axis was used although purchased as a new product.
It was a vicious thing.

The new Taylor Made R11 TP driver is awsome and I would recommend it to any average or low handicap golfer.
