I have some questions about the setup of the MWT in these two different drivers. Can I add the 6g and 10g setup to the regular 460 driver (not the TP) and get the same results shown for the 460 TP?

My guess is that I cannot, the regular 460 only has two trajectories listed, neutral or draw using a 2g & 14g cartridges. The TP model has four trajectories, More Draw, Slight Draw, Slight Fade, More Fade but it doesnt have a neutral trajectory. (even though both drivers only have two MWT ports)

Do you think I can get a slight draw using the 6g & 10g weights in the correct positions that the 2g and 14g should be in for Draw on the regular 460?

I don't have the instruction booklet for the R7 460 MWT, if you happen to know of a place online to see this please help me out.

Also, can ANY wrench (ones that say for R5, Quad or TP & R7) be used on the cartridges for the R7 460? I need a wrench and keep seeing so many different descriptions that make it seem they are for a specific type of TaylorMade club i.e. R5, R7, Quad or TP.

Thanks in advance for any and all help

Raistlin, You can use any weight combination in the R7 460 wether it is the TP model or not. Just make sure the total weight remains the same to keep swing weight constant. For example, 14+2, 12+4, 8+8, etc. You can also use any wrench from any year or model to tighten the weights.

Raistlin,

To add to that, TM's non-TP stuff requires the largest weight in the toe and the lightest in the heel to get back to neutral weighting (so, 2-14 heel-toe). But the face will still be a little closed.

You can't make a non-TP driver toe-heavy. The furthest you can move the CG towards the toe is the center of the face.

    • I'm good with the bunkers, and the fairways are SUPER wide. Three yards should stop a ball that isn't landing in it from rolling into the hay.
    • I'm a little behind, but I just finished listening to the episode about practicing while on vacation.  I have two vacations coming up this month that I won't be bringing golf clubs with me on, and this was perfectly timed (I'm sure I am not the only one going on vacation in June).   Especially the part about stretching.  I keep putting off adding stretching, with golf in mind, to my daily routine.  I think I'm going to use these upcoming vacations, the first of which I'm flying off to on Thursday, as a way to get into this habit.   For anyone else interested, Fit For Golf (see sidebar) has fantastic stretching routines (some of which, I think, are on their free area).  I really should get back to doing their main exercises too.  I don't have any affiliation with them beyond "satisfied customer," in case that sounds like an ad. I may end up posting in the 5 minutes thread when I do golf stretches if it's my only practice that day... as if I don't already sound like a broken mp3 with my 10-15 minutes hitting indoors part. And back to the topic:  anyone not caught up on the podcast should consider catching up and listen to that episode, especially if you're going on a non-golf vacation this summer and want some practice ideas that aren't the at-home practice routine from LSW about long bunker shots (which I am sure we all do regularly).
    • Mostly pull cuts to slices. Some random pull draw/hooks pending of I hit the toe. 
    • What's the rest of that story? Where was the ball going?
    • The criticisms are starting already 🤣 U.S. Open pro criticizes Shinnecock green conditions: 'Bumpy' After playing his first practice round at the 2026 U.S. Open, Michael Kim offered a less-than-glowing review of Shinnecock's "bumpy" greens.   The sand, I don't care about that. If the greens didn't come back as well for latest aerification, that would be a bit of a blunder on Shinnecock I think.
