I currently play a Nike SQ Dymo 9.5 loft with a stiff stock shaft. Thinking it's time to get a new driver and wanted to get a driver that is adjustable. I'm really digging the R9 Supetri, looks like a driver I can definitely keep using without buying a new driver every year and a half. Before I decide to pull the gun on this driver, I heard it was a high launch and high spin driver. The SQ dymo is a high launch and mid spin driver. I wouldn't mind a slightly lower launch so I'm thinking of getting the Supertri in 8.5 loft with a stiff flex. I figure if it still turns out to be a little too much spin for me, I can get another shaft to bring down the spin in X flex and just screw it on there since it has the FCT.
Any suggestions or advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks

I don't like the SuperTri at all. The sound and feel.
I went to a fitting night for taylormade spent about 1 hour with the rep.

I started hitting some golf balls, we ended up with a 7.5 and there low spinning, low launch golf shaft and I was still hitting the driver very high. I asked him if my swing was to blame and he vid'ed me and watched it and could not find a reason, he said the driver would need a custom shaft after I brought the driver to work proply for me.

He apolgised to me and we went out seperate ways, yesterday i tried the Vr tour driver 8.5 and love it, great flight and was pleaseing to the eye! I sugest you also look at this driver. Ping g15 and I15 and the callaway FT tour are also to good clubs, I would look at these!

My buddy hit the SuperTri with a Diamana Whiteboard X-flex and a 8.5 degree head and was launching it really high. After that he tried the Vr Tour Str-8 fit with a 9.5 head and a stiff Aldila Voodoo and the ball was flying a lot lower so he settled for that one. We both thought that the SuperTri flew way too high with too much spin which was proved right when we took it out on the course.

I heard the spin and launch are similar to the R9 460. Is this true? Which I've hit in a 8.5 loft with a stiff flex and I liked it but I didn't buy the 460 because it only had the FCT and was told the supertri would be out soon.

My brother has the R9 TP 8.5 deg driver, he hits nearly 300+ yards! this is still one of the best driver Taylormade do at this point in time.anyway, Taylormade are brining out a new driver called the superdeep. This is the latest model of the successful 510TP. but is a whole lot better! the price is going to be about £400. I might have a go at it and see how it goes.

Also the Superdeep is more of a workable driver, therefore more distance!

Yea but the superdeep in the U.S. will cost 600-700 dollars. That's alot of money for a driver.

    • Day 33 (13 Dec 25) - Worked on weight shift and resetting the left heel during downswing (after listening to a discussion on Golf School this morning on PGA Tour Radio).  It centered on how Jack Nicklaus lifted his lead heel and how long driver champs do as well.  Taking cues from that discussion, worked an exaggerated feel of the left heel working doing some swing drill in the backyard using the 7i.  Wrapped up the session by hitting a few low bump and run shots in the backyard - keeping the process slow and exaggerated.  
    • Day 123 12-13 Rotation and getting to lead side work. Recorded face on. Hit a few foam balls but did plenty of rehearsals today.

    • It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…
