Hi All,

I have a question about the adjustability of the R9 TM driver. If you can change all the angles on the club, what difference does it make if you buy an 8,9,or 10 degree driver?

Duffy,

You don't.
When you try buying it online, there aren't any loft options, instead there is only one choice: "adjustable".

It actually does come in different lofts. 8.5, 9.5, and 10.5. Each one has one degree of adjustability for loft. So the 8.5 can be at 9.5 or 7.5 degrees. The 9.5 can also be set at 10.5 or 8.5, and so on. So it does make a difference.

Correct.

People have a misconception as to it's adjustability for some reason....loft is adjusted, but not independently of face/open-to-close. You've gotta close the face to get the added loft....open it to drop the loft. At least this is what I've been able to discern from reading the small manual that came with my driver.
