New Taylor Made **R9** (out March/April)

[clubmaker15]

Looks good, but a bit skeptical about all the new features??????? What will they do next, interchangable grips? When's it going to stop?

I´m sure its not a bad product, but dont you think Perez would have won with a Burner or R7 Driver too and how much do you think is the driver responsible for the victory in the first place?

Variety is the spice of life.. Personally I enjoy trying out different clubs. I agree sure get on a monitor and get fitted. As for TM putting out to many clubs sure they put out a ton and its annoying to buy something one week and the next its $100 cheaper but thats how companys keep the doors open. Personally I have never ran into the problem of buying something and then a week latter the price changes mainly because I very rarely buy new gear. I normally wait till I can find it used..

The problem is that it seems like it's going to be an r7 superquad with 1 less weight port, a slightly higher moi, and the hosel adjustment (which is a cool idea...). I don't know, it just seems like it would be better just to get the far less expensive and slightly cooler looking superquad.

I'm just trying to think of what's in development for the r9 after this model? 440CC > 440CC with 4 weights to make 125 yards across > 460CC > 460 with 4 weights

I guess I'll enjoy the R9 and be happy with it until the R11 comes out

For the price of a new R9 (I guess it is somewhere around 400?)

I have bought:

TM Superquad 9.5
FT5 9.5 Tour (neutral) with a Matrix and a Bassara shaft (Optifit)
FT5 10 neutral with 2 shafts (I-Mix)
FT-i 11 Draw I-Mix head
--------------------------
Grand total: 320 EUR

So I have so much options it is not even funny.
