Taylor Made R11 Driver....anyone?

Post by Liquid Boom Boom »

Fucking STUPID long. I mean, this thing should be illegal. I'm absolutely destroying the ball again. I played yesterday afternoon and drove it over a bunker that's 300yds from the tee. I usually hit 3 wood on that hole and aim left...now I just bomb it over it. I had been playing an old Cleveland driver that I absolutely hated, and I feel like I'm in love all over again.

If you can, go get this thing. Just awesome.

Anyone else have one? I'm waiting for the 3 wood R11 to show up, can't wait to test her out too.

A couple of the kids on the college team I'm coaching have them. It looks pretty solid. Might have to pick one up this summer.

it retails for $399 but I traded in a set of old clubs and a two older Ping putters I had laying around. It cost me $200.

However, I would sell my wife to get this thing. I played 9 holes last night and was just bombing the hell out of it. If I could figure out the rest of the game, I'd be golden.

I picked up their Tour Burner a couple of years ago and I love it but might have to check this one out!

I really need a new driver, but I don't know that I can ever justify paying 400 fucking dollars for a golf club.

Bozo,

I hear you. I said the exact same thing. I have not bought a driver in 5 years b/c of that. But Holy Jesus H. Christ...this thing is worth every penny. You will LOVE it. I promise.

I'll start a hedge fund for one then...I just got back into playing about 2 months ago after a couple years absence. It's a lot more fun to me now than it was when I was a teenager.
