Hey guys, I got the R11 in october and have been hitting it amazing...but i snapped the shaft today.  I went into golftown, they are going to send it back to taylormade. However, they said Taylormade has just been sending R11s' to replace them.

At first i thought that was great, but now im thinking about it, and i dont know if i want the R11s, because i have been hitting the R11 so well. I know it is a 460cc instead of the R11 which is 440cc, and it has more adjustability.  All i want to know is if anybody has hit both of them and if the R11s is easier or harder to control or basically the same.

I can bet the R11s will be even better, but i just want to make sure before they send it to me and i get a driver that i dont hit as well.

Thanks a lot guys!

If you are indeed a 0.7 handicap.  You'll hit the R11s with no problem.  I say this as your swing should be on plane and consistent.  So such a subtle changes (going from the R11 to the R11s head) should not have ill effects on your golf game.

Also, are you getting the same shaft in the replacement driver?  I ask as this would be the major difference between clubs.  Also, I'd make sure you get it fit so that you optimize your spin numbers accordingly.

    • However, have you ever considered using small summer houses for such setups? They offer a great solution for creating dedicated practice areas, especially for an affluent audience looking to enhance their outdoor living space.
    • I've played Bali Hai, Bear's Best and Painted Desert. I enjoyed Bali Hai the most--course was in great shape, friendly staff and got paired in a great group. Bear's Best greens were very fast, didn't hold the ball well (I normally have enough spin to stop the ball after 1-2 hops).  The sand was different on many holes. Some were even dark sand (recreation of holes from Hawaii). Unfortunately I was single and paired with a local "member" who only played the front 9.  We were stuck behind a slow 4-some who wouldn't let me through even when the local left. Painted Desert was decent, just a bit far from the Strip where we were staying.
