It's a pretty good driver. I know I might buy it once it drops down some more lol. I think there are a few shaft options, 2, maybe but just go try it out and take it out on the course if you can!

I don't have the SuperTri, but I have the R9 460 driver - the SuperTri's predecessor. I went with the R9 because I couldn't justify the SuperTri's price tag. And I'm glad I did. The R9 is a fantastic driver! It is long and pretty forgiving. The only other advantage the SuperTri would have given me is moveable weights. I don't use the adjustibility on the R9 as it is, I can't imagine having more adjustibility options that I wouldn't use.

That's my two cents. Think about if you are really going to use the adjustibility features on the SuperTri. If not, save a couple hundred bucks and look at the R9.

What I Play:

Driver: R9 460

i'd personally find an older 430cc R9. I've hit those before and its a fantastic driver.

I hit a demo a couple months back at the pga store and I wasnt to thrilled about it. I really wanted one but was waiting on price and now I really dont care. It may have been because it was a demo model not setup for me specifically so I will try it over the winter again when the price drops to see if I can find the combo I like. I do better with my 09 burner with no adjustability.

Haven't tried the SuperTri, but I heard some good reviews from my peers.

I just switched away from the R9 back to R7 (my old one). I felt the R9 was too heavy and I hate the ball flight when I hit one with it.

hit the r9 460 because its only 2 bills at golf galaxy..

havent bought it yet but will own it before next spring. Demo'd it and really enjoy hitting the club. Price is cant beat as well. I would imagine supertri is even better but I would wait a little longer eh... taylor made is about to come out with something new which will lower the tri's price

I got the R9 460 in a pinch a few weeks back for 199.99 at Golf Galaxy. I'm really happy with it. I like the adjustable face, but the weights as well? To me, that's a bit of overload. I'm a decent golfer, but I am still at the point where the less I have in my brain as I swing a golf club, the better.

Current Gear Setup: Driver: TM R9 460, 9.5, Stiff - 3W: TM R9, 15, stiff - Hybrid: Adams Idea Pro Black, 18, stiff - Irons: Callaway X Forged 09, 3-PW, PX 5.5 - SW: Callaway X Series Jaws, 54.14 - LW: Callaway X Series Jaws, 60.12 - Putter: PING Redwood Anser, 33in.
