i will be recieveing a r9 supertri very soon and i was wondering what you guys thought about it. I have hit it at my golf shop like three times and i was hitting 230 to 250 consistantly i love the driver but give me your thoughts thank u

I had one for a while and liked it. First off, it's one of the baddest looking drivers on the market IMHO. I liked the feel and the sound at impact, but I ultimately traded it in towards a Ping G15, because it worked better for me and also I didn't really need the adjustability. I think it's a great club and you'll enjoy hitting it. I liked it more than the original R9.... maybe it was the larger clubhead.

I would not worry about what we think about the driver, it's what "you" think about it.

I personally did not like it, felt no were near as good as past taylormade drivers and did not sound as good. On the + side it is a very nice looking driver.

agree x2. I was hoping to like the R9, but the feel and sound wasn't as solid as other TM drivers (510tp, r7tp) I like.

I picked an R9 Supertri up about a month and a half ago, and I'm glad I did. I switched from a Burner '08. I picked up another 10 yards on average, and around 1 or 2 more fairways per round. I like the adjustable options. I set mine up closed which I find more consistent and lets me play a nice little draw. For me, the ball just comes off the face very nice. I wish I was able to hit multiple shafts in it before purchasing, but I have no complaints about the Stock Motore Shaft. As others have mentioned, the club looks very nice; however, I get white marks on the bottom of the club very easily (I assume its from my tee, although I use colored plastic 3prong tees), but that is just me being picky about my club not being spotless.

Enjoy the new club, I hope you like it as much as I do.

thanks guys i know im getting it and i love it just wanted some feedback from others i love the sound and feel i think its really nice but thnx for posting

Got it, great driver. Actually picked it up used and pristine condition without the headcover and wrench for $230 when I cracked the face on my other driver. It came set up open and I thought I needed to change it, but it actually shrank my dispersion pattern.

This thing is long and straight. My only complaint would be that sometimes it's too straight and doesn't work the ball as far as I would plan for, but that just takes time for me to adjust.

I also Love my SuperTri! First of all it looks Awesome, I have also found it to being very consistent and forgiving.

Said it in the last super-tri thread.... Its the only driver i have hit that i like better than my 905R, and that's saying a lot...

Longer and straighter for me.

I am in love with this driver L O V E love, Straightest driver I have ever hit, longest driver I have hit, Tried Titleist 909 and Nike Str8 and this consistently out performed for me.

Like mine so far; I also replaced a burner. I was hoping for a little more distance but that will probably come with time as my swing gets better! Looks bad-ass as others have said and I like the sound a feel.

I hit an 8.5 degree SuperTri w/ Fujikura Motore F1 S shaft in a fitting recently. It was one of the clubs that was a good match for me. I almost bought it, but went for a Titleist 909D3 w/ Blueboard 73 S shaft instead. But that all dark color was pretty sharp. The balls would leave a mark on the face so you could see where you hit it. Felt pretty solid overall imo. Shots just seemed to be nothing but straight and long.

    • Thanks but honestly… I don't know any other way. I don't mind being wrong so long as I know where to go from there. I don't like being wrong — I'd love to get things right (which is different than "being right"). I recommend grabbing a furniture slider or a paper plate or something, and doing something like this: First, make a swing where you let your trail foot swing out as you turn, then twist that foot back in. From DL and FO, it'll look like this: Then, during a regular backswing, try to twist your foot in slightly (demonstrated in the left image): You'll notice a crease along the trail side of your hip, your pelvis will "fold" into that thigh (internal rotation of the hip joint), and your "bits" will be squished a little between your pelvis and your thigh. Ben Hogan said once: "At the top of the back swing the groin muscle on the inside of your rt [sic] leg near your right nut will tighten," Hogan wrote. "This subtle feeling of tightness there tells you that you have made the correct move back from the ball." I don't know about that, but you will probably feel something down around that area.
    • Yep. I think it will start to feel even more athletic when we start on the downswing stuff later.  I know, it's just I want to be younger so I have more time to enjoy the changes. 🙂 
    • I need to drop a couple of stone. 🙂 😛    Yep. Yeah, but in the end, it feels more athletic, like you're actually using your legs, yeah? As you know… we use the best available info we have. Like others, I was fooled a little by 2D images for awhile (moving or still). Unlike others, I've learned and grown and moved on since then, while they're still looking at their images (often from lousy camera angles).
    • Day 12 - 2025-12-31 Limited time today, and heavy rains here. 5-10 minutes of mirror work for full swing, working on trail side.
    • Day 2, 12/31/25.  Similar to yesterday (rainy, no surprise), I hit primarily 6-iron full swings with the same focus;  I also hit some chips (about 1/8 swing) with the 54.  About two dozen full swings and an equal number of short shots.  All of this was indoors, off a mat, into a net, real balls.
