Have a quick question about the differences between the old TM R7 460 and the RM R7 460 Draw...

I used to have the R7 460, with the weights set up for draw. I recall the 460 had a 60g shaft, while the 460 Draw has a 55g? Both shafts are RE*AX shafts? My old one was in stiff flex.

I was very happy with the 460, but see it is no longer available. The 460 draw may be a possibility to replace my current 905R

So, a 460 set up with draw weighting v a 460 draw - other than the shaft and no moveable wights, any differences?

Cheers
Mike

As far as i am aware the other key difference is that the clubface is actually setup a couple of degrees closed to further aid the ball going left.

Other than the lighter shaft and lack of moveable weights that is it i think.

Someone may come along and correct me however

R7 460s are available at online stores. No problem getting them brand new in original wrappers. In fact...I prefer to buy my clubs online...knowing they have not been hit.

Yeah, I have been looking on rock bottom golf but they don't seem to have them - only the 460 draw. Having trouble finding places that will ship to Dubai - most are Europe/China/Japan/Australia but not UAE

Look at tgw.com....plenty of 460s with many options. That is my favorite place to shop with the best customer service.

If the guy is looking for a r7 460 and can't find it elsewhere...he sure can find exactly what he wants (correct loft...correct shaft flex...etc) at TGW.

Also...TGW net price is competitive. Rockbottom will advertise the club but sock you shipping. Just check out the price to ship a golf bag....some $20 for shipping! Or $10 shipping for a driver. To end it all regarding pricing....TGW will price match competitor's pricing ! Done it plenty of time with ease and I get exactly what I want. That can't be beat.

Thanks for the info. Had a look on TGW and they do indeed have the R7 460 in the loft & flex I would want for $199 + $55 shipping.

I compared the 460 Draw there also - also $199 + $55 shipping. Compared to rockbottomgolf this is more (they were $169 + $35 shipping) but the TGW selection seemed better, and the fact they have the club I am after is more of a bonus. Will see if I can sell my 905R and take things from there. Cheers for the info Thanks Mike

I would still suggest contacting TGW for a price match on the 460 Draw if you are going that route. Their customer service is very good and accomodating.

Biggest thing....choose the right club with the right specs. Don't chose a club just because it is cheaper.

    • Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.
    • As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
