cpga Posted June 21, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 Was demoing the new Taylormade Rescue Mid Dual today with the Diamana h hybrid shaft in the 19 degree model and so far so good, didn't use it much in today's round but I'll go to the range tomorrow and really test it out but it's a nice club which I was skeptical about when I saw the protos.

sly_sam Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 The Rescue Dual looks really nice. The only thing i'd buy it for is the sole shape though, the weights still seem very useless in it. It's like the r7 Fairway, the weights make it look real cool and all that but i don't think i'd fimd them very useful. The driver was a different story.

Satyuros Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 Wow, I like the bag. I wish I could get a sponsor, *L*. Ah well...So your liking that rescue mid dual, eh? Your using the TP model, correct? I personally thought it was a bit too much, since I couldn't see myself wishing to working a hybrid so specifically to screw around with..screws. That's just my opinion, though...probably sounds stupid coming from a guy who uses an R7... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChocolateBoy Posted June 22, 2005 Report Share Posted June 22, 2005 yea in my opinion the screws are a little over the top on a hybrid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cpga Posted June 22, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2005 The Rescue Dual is a standard TP model just like the 3 wood, and I had the same thoughts as you all mentioned that the shape of the club and how it sets up is still the same as the rescue mid tp but the added weights I was as I said before skeptical but I was playing around with the weights today which was a 14, a 2, and two eights and after hitting every different type of shot in each setting you could see differences in ball flight, launch angle, etc. Do I think I'll put one in my bag for good, probably not but it was good to try it out for product knowledge aspects. As for the R7 TP 3 wood I tried that a couple days ago and if you set it up to your specs with the right weights it again causes differences. But in the end I'll stick with my 16 degree rescue mid tp. PJ, I'd love to play a round but unfortunately I live in British Columbia in the Okanagan so it'd make a round fairly difficult. Chocolate boy, weights in every club from what I've been hearing from Taylormade is going to be their common trend now since they have just about their whole line covered in moveable weight technology, although I truly hope they don't put weights in wedges...the irons I believe are in the works.

sly_sam Posted July 5, 2005 Report Share Posted July 5, 2005 The way i see it, they can only take weight technology so far before the clubs stop working properly. Personally, i think it's really cool yet i can't seem to find a good reason for weights in the Rescue and Faiway clubs. I just tried out the R7 TP Fairway , only with movable weights. It takes alot of the workablity out of the person and puts it all in the club. I still think it's cool, all the weights and such, i just don't think i'll be needing it in certain clubs. Weights in irons, now that would be different. I bet they would sell like hot cakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cpga Posted July 6, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2005 I was talking with our tm rep yesterday and he was telling me that the weights in the irons are like what you find in the cgb putters and irons in terms of size and he didn't say much as to what they're going to look like but he was gonna let me know when a proto became available. So if I do get a proto to try out i'll let ya know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sly_sam Posted September 13, 2005 Report Share Posted September 13, 2005 Hey! You should update your bag deal. I'd like to see how your equipment has changed and also hear how you've benifited from the switch. Hope it all works out for the best!

sfgolfer Posted September 13, 2005 Report Share Posted September 13, 2005 Those weights may look silly, but I'll tell you that Dual performs IMO. (I put 8g in each port for a neutral weighted head). That club is significantly better than the Rescue I or II, which seemed very draw biased. Anyway, I replaced two fairway woods with my duals! :love: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cpga Posted September 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2005 Yes the Rescue Dual having weights may not set up well to many players but on a playability level it does perform..granted you have the right weight set up. Sly_Sam I'm still using all of my TM setup except for just finished demoing the Tour SQ and three wood but for the remainder of the season I'm sticking with the TM bag. I'll get the new clubs for the off season and start hitting them indoors and get down to the coast to play pending on the snow. But I've got pics of the TM bag I just have never got to setting them up on a site, so if I get some time through the week I'll get on that after all this time.
