The ugliest driver in golf! That thing better be one hell of a stick to make up for that absolutely horrendous aesthetics. It looks like a womens club. I'm sure it's a good stick though, Taylormade makes solid stuff, I just hate their marketing strategies.

I agree these clubs are ugly. For the money I would go with the Titleist 910 D2. In my opinion the Titleist 909 D2 is one of the best looking drivers made. Simple and clean looking.

It didn't look like a women's club as I was laying it out past everyone in my foursome the past two rounds...

But as they say, beauty is in the eye of the beholder...

I agree with that. Nice. I hope I didn't offend anyone who owns the R11.

I too, don't mean to offend anyone. I love being able to rip it past the rest, it's a great feeling. I'm just saying I dont like the looks, I'm sure it is a nice club though, I do want to hit it at some point. Just seen them in demos and at a local shop.

I too thought it was ugly at first and made fun of my office partner who went out and bought one right away. Until I hit it on the range a country mile. So I stuck my tail between my legs and went and bought one. Longest driver I've ever owned...
In my Ping Pioneer LC bag -
Driver: TaylorMade R11 10* closed
3 Wood: TaylorMade R11 15* open
Hybrid: Ping G15 20*
Irons: Ping G15 4, i15 5 - PWWedges: Ping Tour S 50*, 56* bent to 55*, 60*Putter: TaylorMade Daytona Ghost 34"

      PING I540 Versus Titleist T250

      By boogielicious · Posted

      that is an excellent approach. I did that with my last set. I made a few 7 irons from different heads and shafts. Getting a feel for how they play on the course is the right idea. Let us know how it goes.

      I’m glad the USGA booted some of the hecklers. It’s getting out of hand. I wish the networks wouldn’t mic the crowd to give those idiots a platform.

      PING I540 Versus Titleist T250

      By 3puttjay · Posted

      New member here, and I have decided to upgrade my clubs. I have been playing for a long time but these last 10 years I have had to put four kids through college. So I've played a few rounds a year and some years have not played at all. I am currently playing Titleist 716 AP2's with Rifle 6.5 steel shafts and Winn grips. I used to hit my 7 iron around 165 yds until just 5 years ago. I turned 62 this year and noticed I can barely get my 7 iron to 145 yds. I went for a fitting to try out some new player distance irons. I don't think I need game improvement irons because I'm pretty straight and rarely try to work a ball (if I'm working a ball, then I most definetely did something wrong to get there). I tried a bunch of irons (Callaway, Mizuno, PXG, Taylormade, Srixon, Ping, and Titleist) and I kept coming back to the Ping and Titleist. They just felt right and really looked good when lining up a shot. The Ping, by far, went the longest of all the irons. The Titleist was a close second in distance. Both felt buttery smooth through impact. I was wondering if anyone else has any experience with these irons. I was getting 160 yds with a nice smooth swing (81 mph swing speed). I know I'm asking a lot of my clubs but my last fitting was 27 years ago and I ended up with some Cleveland TA3's or TA2's forged irons with Dynamic Gold S300 (swing speed 87 mph). I really love the feel of my AP2's and the place I'm going to purchase from is going to make a 7 iron in both Ping and Titleist for me to test on real grass. I'm pretty certain it's going to be either one. They're both identical in price for a set of 5-PW. I'm going to forego a 4 iron and get another 4 hybrid to go along with my 3 hybrid. Any and all replies are welcome.
