Taylormade made it clear out of the gate that the R9 will be its touted flagship. Flight Control Technology (FCT), Movable Weight Technology, Inverted Cone Technology (ICT), and Ultra Thin Wall Technology, all the top list of technological advances were put into this driver. How can you say no to it?
The TaylorMade R9 Driver is approximately 420cc in size. It has 8 different hosel positions ranging from neutral to 2* closed to 2* open as well as 2* upright moving in 1* increments. There are 3 movable weights in the R9 2 1 gram weights, and 1 16 gram weight. I will get into what the positions will do later in the review.
The R9 combines modern and classic lines to create a "New Classic" head shape that should satisfy players of all types. Golf Clubs The club has a large address, and is described as a combination of the r7 SuperQuad and r7 Limited (a triangular shape with contoured corners) head shape design.
Main Technology Description:
light Control Technology - This is a cool and upcoming technology. This allows the player to easily move or change loft, lie and face angle! FCT uses a sleeve that is positioned over the tip of the shaft to accomplish. The sleeve can be rotated into different positions, changing the characteristics of the head, by loosening the bolt that secures the sleeve and shaft into the clubhead.
Movable Weight Technology - is nothing new for TM. The clubhead weight can be changed to by the player to change the characteristics of the club. This allows the golfer to optimize CG.
Inverted Cone Technology - has also been available for some time and become quite prevalent, Taylormade and other driver manufacturers as well. Nevertheless, it's a sound technology that is gaining in popularity. ICT optimizes the behavior of the clubface at impact, creating for an expanded COR zone.
Ultra Thin Wall Technology - this technology is also gaining steam amongst today's drivers. This allows saved weight and makes the incorporation of MWT and FCT possible.
Along with the new advancements in design, the TaylorMade R9 Driver will feature the new Fujikura "Motore" shaft with High Inertia Tip (H.I.T.) Technology. This shaft will help players produce faster ball speeds and more stability on mis-hits. All of these combinations of technological advancements truly make this driver the most advanced in the history of TaylorMade-Adidas Golf. The Taylor Made R9 has already won a PGA event in its 1st week out on tour. That is something that has never been done by any other Taylor Made Driver model ever.
The R9 comes in 8.5, 9.5, and 10.5 with 59 degree lie angle. For those that like the sleeker, smaller clubhead, you are in for a treat. Similar to the R7 model, the R9 in 422 cc for the 10.5, 420 cc in the 9.5 and 418 cc for the 8.5 418 cc, well under the norm of 460 cc.
