Is that a compass to find your way back to the fairway after you spray your tee shot 17yds deep into the trees on the right?

I think we are all being had. This is a joke right? I mean a compass on the bottom and race car colors on top....really?

I think the new TaylorMade club comes with GPS, to help you find your way out of the woods.

yea the fairwoods would be pretty sweet. I'm so hooked to this driver now I hope there are more of something similar down the road.

Here is a photo of the R1, taken by Dana Dahlquist.  Thought it was interesting because I haven't seen this angle.

[INDENT][/INDENT][quote name="JasonK88S" url="/t/63555/sneak-peak-2013-taylormade-r1-driver/54#post_791790"]wtf is this? please explain [/quote] That's an old adjustable iron. Intended for the traveling golfer who couldn't bring an entire set of clubs. You can change the loft to match any club from 2 iron through wedge. An absolute POS and of course, non-compliant.

Please let this new driver be a wind up, I know its performance over looks but there's no way one of them is going in my bag, nor the Nike for that matter, it looks as though the Supertri is staying for a while longer.

I just wish the manufacturers would give us the option when it comes to colour schemes, plain old black suits me fine but I can appreciate others having different tastes.

I dont know about the driver but with Cobra's latest AMP irons you can change the colour of the cavity.Im wondering if in the next few years when drivers are all different colours if Taylormade will go back to the old "glare inducing" black. Probably call it classic technology.. "Guaranteed to give you 15 extra yards"  (If you swing it a bit quicker...)

The Xtreme looks good, i'll still have trouble leaving the Supertri out of the bag though, i'm really comfortable with it.

Imagine cracking the sh!ts and slamming it into the ground, then spending your Saturday afternoon cleaning the dirt out of it. Its one big wank. Its uglier than an unplayable lie. I will never go down this road. The right shaft with the right loft is all you need. Good luck fixing your outside in swing with that club..TM, you're a joke and you're banking on all the hackers out there who think that this will fix their game from the tee..pathetic..

      Carl Pettersson is the Pancake Zone. The Swedish Pancake Club, Ranked - Fried Egg Golf Keegan Bradley just won his fifth PGA Tour event and became the latest member of the Swedish Pancake Club. Here's a ranking of that exclusive group. It's his sixth win in a decent length career. He's nondescript. I think it says he doesn't make waves, wins some second-tier events, hasn't had many close finishes in the top three in majors… and that only hard-core golfers follow the week-to-week. P.S. Five wins as personified by Carl Pettersson is the Pancake Zone. From Shotgun Start, I should say. It's not Carl per se, it's five wins.

      Your determination & tenacity inspires me. keep at it!  I’m looking forward to your shooting that 79!

      He's had 3 top ten finishes in majors recently, so maybe the odds aren't that low.  And this was his 6th PGA tour win.  And he is 5th in the OWGR.  What does it say about the state of golf that a guy like this is 'unknown'. And what is the Pancake Zone?  I can't recall hearing that term before.

      Too Old ?

      By RetiredOldMan · Posted

      I refuse to give up.  Well, after switching from right handed to left handed and being fairly succcessfull, my medications got changed awhile back and I just (for curiosity) pulled my Cleveland Launch Driver (12* loft, Senior flex shaft) and was hitting around 130 to 150 yards with it. (Nice and straight)  My golfing buddy just happened to have his new Q135 Taylormade (and hits about 250 yard drives.)  As a side note, I was taking a drug to keep my heart from fluttering  (Propranonol) and it was suspected that it was driving my pulse down. (From the 70's to the low 50's. )  So, since my Cleveland Launch does a little better at slower swing speeds, I switiched back to my right handed clubs. Cleveland driver, 3 & 5 wood, and Majek Hybrid irons.  Well, Sunday, my pulse was back up in the 70's so I decided to play right handed. I felt really well and my strength had returned.  Front 9, I shot a 54. (I am now 79 years old and have set a goal to shoot my age this year or next year at 80) I play fairly well either right handed or left handed.  On the back 9, I started hitting my buddy'x Q135 driver and had worked the distance up to around 175 yards off the tee. (9.* loft and stiff shaft) Changged my swing to a softer and smooth  swing style. (By bringing my back swing more vertical and the swing more relaxed and smooth. I don't swing strong enough to get much flex on a stiff shaft. )  I finished the round with a 52. (Playing Fort Hays, Kansas)  So,,,,,,,I ordered me a new Q135 Taylormade, 10.5* loft, and Diamona Regular Flex.  I will go back to playing with my Majek Hybrids and play right handed, since my medications have been adjusted and are working quite well. ( I wonder if they have a medication  that would increase my swing speed.) Been raining and I can only play 18 holes and then at least a day to rest up for another 18.   Golfers, play for fun, enjoy the game, but don't quit! Don;t get hung up on what your buddy is doing; having your mind somewhere else, while you are trying to make your body play golf.   I will let you all know how my new driver works out. Thanks for reading.  Retired Old Man
