TOPIC: R11S

R11S 1 year, 1 month ago #26349

Thanks to an awesome giveaway by Golfballed.com and Taylormade, I was the lucky winner of one of last month's giveaway, the R11S. I have only played 9 holes with it last Friday, and I hit the range once since getting it. My round Friday was plagued with slices, but yesterday at the range was a nice turnaround. The range was only suppose to be an iron and hybrid session, but I just could not keep the driver in the bag. I was mainly trying to avoid hitting it due to the horrible range balls, buy hey it's a golf club and its going to get worn in. My first shot was a terrible slice. Second shot was a really strong fade, but I coud make it work. Third was just a slight fade that could easily be played. And the fourth shot was when it started. Something clicked finally and I was hitting straight. The range has a wooded area that sets at the end of the range. I don't know yardage, but the wooded are is around 300 yards. The fourth shot and following shots were all just right near the woods. I was consistently hitting straight high drives averaging (guessing) somewhere around 275 - 300 yards. I had the driver set up as: 9*, Closed Plus, and a draw favoring weight placement. I was hoping that this combo would help cure my slice; however, it does not cure my slice, but it does definitely help. Not a whole lot can be said that hasn't already been said being that it's such a popular driver. But the one thing that catches my attention more than anything is how golf balls absolutely blast off the face. Maybe this is due to new technology in drivers and just fascinates me, but I was hitting a R5 before this and the balls just did not react this way on the R5. Maybe it's prejudice, but this is an awesome driver so far and I don't care about trying others. I have seen the potential for me with this driver, and I am ready to pursue it. I can't wait to continue to post progress and more feedback on the driver. Once again, thanks to Golfballed.com and Taylormade for awesome chances like this!

Glad it is working for you! I love mine! I went and ordered the R11S 3wd since I liked my driver so much. I have almost taken the left side out (knock on wood.... no blocks) which is a big deal for me!!

I can't wait to try the R11S 3wd when I head down to Golfsmith, but it's a little pricey for me. Also, didn't you win the RBZ Tour driver in the giveaway?

I ordered mine for $219 shipped. Yes I did. It was one of testers for ClubWars and Bossman is waiting on LM to come in so they can do the final testing then it will be on the way.

Well shoot, I could handle that. The cheapest I found was $250.00. Thats only $30.00 more, but $219 looks and sounds better. Sweet! Can't wait to here what you think about it.

I know it took me a long time just to get my R11 dialed in. I went back and forth with my super tri for a bit. Those two drivers are really different beast. I should have not tried to set up the R11 to act like my R9 but just started from scratch. I would have saved time and aggravation.
