r11 golf clubs

Following the R9 along came the R9 460 which as the name suggest now comes in a bigger head at 460cc with similar swingweight, torque but now with a longer length at 45.75. Torque is 3.1 for Aldila shaft and 3.5 (60g) for Fujikura Motore (65g) but there is an absence of MVT but they gave us FCT (Flight Control Technology). Maybe at this point, they haven't figured out how to put both MVT and FCT together yet or just holding back to sell a new concept.

Soon after, the R9 SuperTri was introduced. This comes in an all-black club head of 460cc with similar attributes in swing weight, torque, length with a marginally reduced shaft weight at 59g but hey now SuperTri has both MVT and FCT. You can adjust the CG (Centre of Gravity) by changing weight using the MVT and adjust and change the loft, lie and face angle by using the FCT.

Finally, the all new R11 made its debut but what features have they incorporated into this club? The first thing that strikes you is the all white colour of the club head. It is not just white but comes in a non-glare matt finish. Tell me if a matt black finish is any different? To performance and look?

The driver is perhaps golf's most intriguing club and rightly so. Recently I spoke to two persons and the topic centered on drivers. One bought a R11. What is distinct about the R11 from TaylorMade? If you have ever played Taylormade drivers such as the r5, r7, R9, R9 460, R9 SuperTri you will understand roughly what the R11 could be. When they first came out with the R9 it was about 420cc in club head size with a D4 swing weight, torque at 3.5, length of 45.25 and shaft weight at 65g and it offered only MVT (Movable Weight Technology). This clubs should be used by better players just for the head size alone.
