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 hate to say it but this isnt an april fools joke.. i've just read a review in the todays golfer magazine in the UK.

according to them they liked the graphics on the crown.It supposedly helps with alignment..... of course it would

Adjustability is apparently "Easier then ever" despite appearances.. They also noted that it was incredibly light and generating distance was  "Effortless"

I imagine that TG has perhaps had a rather large donation...

I was waiting for these to come out to replace my R11. Now I will just wait till the R11s comes down $100 bucks after the release and buy one of them.

It might be a little while before they drop that much. You can get R11S TP drivers from eBay and certain retailers for anywhere from $220-$260.

Butt Ugly.   I hate the graphics on the crown.  Can't play well when about to vomit while addressing the ball... . Taylormade is ruining golf.

Played with a guy who had one and was able to give it a rip.  Didn't like the shaft that was on it and it was a bit light so can't give a good review of it.  It sounded better than the r11 and burners and seem to hit the ball pretty far.

Yeah and other things.  It's a new hosel design so previous TaylorMade adjustable shafts won't work for the new driver.

Pics will be up in 30 mins guys!

Pics don't do it credit, looks better in person imo but definitely different.

I'm interested in what visual aid they're apparently claiming this dog's breakfast on the crown affords.

"See the game like you never have before."

If the uniloft concept actually works well in practice then that's a genuine innovation and hats off to TMAG (and Nike). Keen to see how they each accomplish it.

      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.

      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
