In my TaylorMade R11 Driver Review, I have to start out by saying that my best friend has this club and it is slick! Wow, out of al the golf clubs review that I’ve done, this is easily one of the best that I’ve tested. I’m sure that you’d agree with me on that one, if you felt one of these puppies in your hands.
So what the heck makes this club tick? Well, first off, it has a new technology. This new feature is an adjustable sole that can adjust the face angle of the club, as well as the ability to adjust the launch angle. Wow! One of the only truly adjustable drivers around! This massive club can give you 100 yards of side to side trajectory and around 1000 RPM extra backspin.
It also has an aerodynamic shape which of course, gives you more clubhead speed. Many people brag about the forgiveness of this club. How they can overswing and still have some good distance thanks to this club. The club head is also white, which can help big time with alignment so that you can crush your ball and watch it go higher, straighter and further.
Here is what a pro golfer has to say:
“I have had about 3 TM drivers since the 360 came out so I’m not an every new model person. I tried out several new models and after the adjustments made at Golfsmith I went with their recommendation the R11 was for me. It’s nice to find a driver you can adjust the lie angle, being 6’4″ and close the face a bit until you get your swing down pat.
The adjustable weights in the R7 were great but being able to also close the face 2 degrees to cut down on my block fade is even better. The driver settings allow you to adjust the driver back to a more neutral position later on if you correct a swing issue unlike others that give you no option but to get another driver with a different swing bias. Also nice on windy Texas days to be able to lower the loft a degree. I feel more confident on the tee box with this driver knowing it’s dialed in for me. I’m not the person they market to for 300 plus yard drives. I could care less about claims of 6 extra yards with the new Callaway, if those yards are further out in the rough. I’m longer than I have ever been by 10 to 15 yards and I’m in the fairway. Great driver and the white color for better alignment seems to help.”
