for the r7 the weight thing. do i just unscrew the wieghts on whicever side and like leave the slot empty? or am i spose to do sumthing special. i dont really get it.. heh basically by unscrewing and tkaing out the screw it makes the side lighter and that changes everything right?

I don't own one either, but I'm pretty sure you wouldn't want to leave the hole empty. Taylormade has screws is several different weight categories, just put the lighter ones where you intended on leaving it empty, and the heavier once opposite to them...

In My Bag:

Taylormade: Superquad 9.5 Aldila VS Proto 'By You' 70-S
Sonartec: SS-07 14.0 Aldila NV 85-S

the MWT that Taylor Mades r7 series uses is there to change the ball flight. You never want to play without weights in the slots.. if you tell me what model you have I can help you set your club up to suit your game..

I sell TM equipment and play all of it check my sig.

To keep the standard swingweight, you are supposed to replace the weights in pairs. I believe the default (on the TP model, for example) is 2-14-14-2 or 32 total. So whatever combination you want, it should add up to 32.

Also, an r7 with an "empty hole" is a non-conforming club.
