TaylorMade R9 Drivers

TaylorMade R9 driver- The TaylorMade R9 driver is one of the best TaylorMade drivers made and overall one of best golf drivers available. It is a good piece of golf equipment to own. The TaylorMade R9 allows the golfer to adjust the head's loft and lie.

As mentioned above, the TaylorMade R9 driver is fully adjustable. Before we go into the specific details, Best Golf Equipment Reviews will give you a brief overview of the entire TaylorMade R9. The TaylorMade R9 uses Flight Control Technology, Movable Weight Technology, classic clubhead shape, and a high quality graphite shaft.

So just what is the TaylorMade Flight Control Technology? In short, this is what allows the golfer to change the face angle, lie, and loft of the driver. This technology uses a metallic sleeve that is placed over the tip of the shaft which can be rotated into multiple positions. By rotating the sleeve, the golfer is then able to change the loft, lie, and face angle of the club producing a more custom driver.

The TaylorMade Moveable Weight Technology allows the golfer to adjust the weight of the club to their specifics. This is done by using a special TaylorMade wrench to move weight cartridges into ports that TaylorMade placed strategically positioned on the TaylorMade R9 driver. By placing more weight in the heel of the driver it will promote a draw. By placing more weight in the toe of the driver it will promote a slice.

One of the stock graphite shafts for the TaylorMade R9 is the Fujikura Motore shaft. This is a 65 gram shaft with low torque results in a faster ball speed. The Fujikura Motore graphite shaft is available in a regular, stiff, or X stiff shaft. The TaylorMade R9 is geared for golfers that have a swing speed of 90 mph and up.

The TaylorMade R9 driver is available in the following:

  • Right Handed: 8.5, 9.5, 10.5
  • Left Handed: 9.5, 10.5

All of the drivers have a standard swing weight of D4 with a 45" shaft. The weight of the driver varies from 418 CC to 422 CC based on the loft. The TaylorMade R9 will cost you about $399.00.

The TaylorMade R9 is a very good driver. Best Golf Equipment Reviews loves the TaylorMade golf equipment, especially the R9 driver. While it might not be geared toward the slower swingers, it is definitely a driver that you should consider when purchasing a new golf club.
