Taylormade r7 460 TLC Cartridges

[trynot2envee]

Is it necessary to keep the total weight of the cartridges at 16g? I would like to keep the 14g cartridge & add an 8g or even 10g to the toe. This would only create more MOI & change the swing weight, right? Has anyone tried adding more weight then the 16g' s? Any input would be sweet.

Thanks

U can have as much weight in ur club as u want!

Agreed. I think I have something like 36 or 38g of weight in my 425 instead of the stock 28g because I like a bit of a heavier club to keep my tempo from getting too fast. It also helps because I can generate more force with a good swing speed (F=ma). I tried a lot of different combinations and found a good compromise between swing speed (light weight) and good tempo (heavy weight).

I did what you are thinking...I went ahead and ordered two (2) 14 gram weights and placed them in the stock 1gm ports. I left the 12gm weights in the stock locations. Personally, I am not sure what these changes do to the swing weight or trajectory...the physics behind the changes would be nice to know.

As a total feel player, I find the changes complimentary to my type of swing. I like the increased "head" weight because it forces me to swing smoother and in more control, which translates to a longer drive for me with less effort.

The only other change I make is that I have to tee the ball up pretty low...but the ball still flies pretty high...go figure. Yo...techies! Throw me some knowledge on what the heck I'm doing.

Overall, go fo it..the weights are relatively inexpensive and you can play with them in so many configurations that the inner golf range rat will be busy for weeks tweaking.

PS The only other changes I made to the club is a switch to Winn grips (52 gram - medium/blue size) and I have stiff Stulz (65g-33/040 BP/Mid) shaft that replaces the stock. So based on these changes the, I am only adding 2 gm in the grip and 26gm in the head from stock.
