+TourSpecGolfer Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 You guy's have already heard about the new R11 all over the web. We are getting confirmation from Japan that Taylormade R11TP Forged Irons, and special Japan Only editions of the R11 driver and irons are scheduled for announcement at the 2011 Tokyo Golf Fair. I posted a blog post on GTI about the new R11 Driver, copy and pasted below: Taylormade R11 Driver The New Taylormade R11 Driver will be showcased at the 2011 Tokyo Golf Show and as usual you can expect GolfToImpress/TourSpecGolf to have plenty of HD Video and High Resolution Images as well as a Taylormade R11 Driver Review. last year we revelaed the Taylormade R9 TP Forged irons along with some other Japan only tid bits. Will it be the R11 DEEP or perhaps an R11 Max this year dedicated to the Japanese Market? AST = Adjustable Sole Technology The new acronym on the sole of the club is (AST) and it stands for Adjustable Sole Technology. Combine that with FCT and MWT and you got a lot of adjustments your able to make. It's pretty amazing stuff if you ask me. R11 Ghost Driver? Around the web people are chiming in with positive & negative opinions on the fact that Taylormades future flagship model may come standard in white. This seems to be the flavor of the month or month(s) with Taylormade's Ghost putter series and recently Cobra's limited edition white driver. Still no word on if Taylormade will label the new R11 "ghost", my guess is not. Taylormade R11 TP Driver Yup it's a safe bet there will be the R11 TP Driver not too far down the line as well. We can figure the MSRP on the Taylormade R11 will be in the $399.00 range and with the R11TP coming in near $699.00 these are just my guesses, confirmation should be coming soon. Were these Images Leaked too Early? My take is that it was an intentional leak and that Taylormade knows exactly what they are doing by getting the pictures out there on the web then asking websites to take them down. It causes a stir getting websites to speculate and customers to get into a pre release frenzy. Taylormade markets product behind the scenes like no other companies. Will they ask GTI/TSG to remove the images while they spread like like fire on the web? Only time will tell... Taylormade R11 Forged Irons? Let's keep going right? It's not to far of a stretch to say the Taylormade will release R11 Irons with or soon after the release of the driver. R11 Fairway Woods, R11 Wedges, R11 TP Irons, R11 Bags & Hat's it's all coming! It's also pretty safe to say the Japanese Market will be the first to announce R11 Forged Irons and R11 TP Forged Irons. GolfToImpress will keep you guy's updated as news comes out ...

gus Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 It may be cool as hell but I need to reserve my opinion until I see it in hand, the white ghost thing is a bit wild...BB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbs Posted November 19, 2010 Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 I will get one for sure, but not sure will be keeping it for long or not. I had the supertri but felt that the R9 was better. so not everything new is good. Should i be posting in Old better than New instead? :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
