TaylorMade r7 425 TP

Advantages: Weight movable technology

...It was about time that I upgraded some of my golf equipment, well it all needs to be up graded myself included. If you play the game you may know what I mean. First up was to be a shinny new driver. I looked around for quite sometime checking out all the new stuff and finally I made my choice. Taylormade Golf equipment was going to be the clubs for me. The R7 Super quad was just the weapon. I picked up the 10.5° degrees of loft with a regular shaft and I must as it was light after the old driver. But boy did it go I have been about thirty yards longer every time. However have not always been straight but that would be me and not the club.

...that a golf ball can travel when hit at a certain test speed has also been capped.
