jlauber Posted December 13, 2006 Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 I see where Taylormade is coming out with a new set of R7 XR drivers, woods, and irons. Anybody have any info regarding them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gocchin Posted December 13, 2006 Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 (edited) Well the magazines in Japan haven't mentioned much about the new line, at least the ones I read (December, January issues). I find all the gold pretty damn ugly looking. The clubs look kinda cheap or pimped out in my opinion.... But reading the TM Japan site the New R7 XR driver is: 460cc Available in 9.5 10.5 11.5 Available 0.5 closed 1.0 closed 1.5 closed Lie 59* Length 45.5" REAX XR Shaft is super light at 38g for R, 42g for SR, 47g for S with 4.9 4.6 and 4.5 torque respectively and mid kick Comes with Moveable Weight Technology (two weight ports w/ 2g and 10g installed) plus a weight kit containing an extra 4g and 8g and wrench.

jlauber Posted December 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 Thanks gocchin. Do you know if the driver is US legal...or perhaps the COR? Can Chris get these? And when ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes they are indeed USGA conforming, most likely right at the max 0.83. Chris should be able to get these, please drop him a PM. :tsg_smilie_cool: Edited December 13, 2006 by gocchin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
