I am thinking about getting a new driver in the next month, still deciding to get a new one.  My current driver is a taylormade tour burner, i have had it for about 2 years.  So i guess what i am asking is if i should upgrade to a new driver, and if so i have narrowed it down to the r9 supertri or r11, which one should i go with?

Thanks

I could make a flow chart for this question pretty easily actually.

Do you like black or white?

Do you want to adjust the loft of your driver without changing the face angle?

Do you get confused with alot of changing parts?

Answer key:

Black

No

Yes

Super Tri

White

Yes

NO

R11

Waiting out the 2 feet of snow that just dropped on the course....

Try both out and see which one you like better.

If I were in your position, I'd go for the r9 SuperTri. I like the look of it much more. It still allows you to change the loft of the driver, at the cost of also changing the clubface angle, but has the weights to compensate for it.

For example, say I have a 10.5 SuperTri but I want it to set up with an open clubface.

I'll decrease the loft to make the clubface open (to 9.5*) and then put the heaviest weight in the back port to increase launch angle.

You should be able to save a bunch of money, which allows you to buy some weights and fool around with the trajectory.

Supertri is a nicer driver, I think.  The weight and feel...even the color.  The white, to me, is distracting.   he Supertri is a great club and the weights and adjustability are superb.

    • Day 10 (10 Jun 26) - Played in the midweek shootout at my home course - on aerated and sanded greens - day of trying to figure tempo to get the best roll on the greens.  Approach game was decently solid as was shots off the tee.  
    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?      
    • Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
