November 7, 2007

treet Price: $300.
Lofts: 9, 10.5, HT (13.5).
Key Technology: A 55-gram, soft-tipped Fujikura Re*Ax shaft and extra weight in the heel help prevent a slice. The face has TaylorMade’s inverted-cone technology, which stretches the size of the area on the clubface that produces maximum or near-maximum ball speed.
Panelist Comments: “Nothing special unless you like distance and accuracy. This is powerful. . . . Felt heavier in head. . . . Draw is what it is. I couldn’t fade it.”
Judges’ Verdict: It has a classic TaylorMade look; heft and feel with a genuine left-tendency.
Hot: Sounds like a driver should, even one for choppers.
Not: Unless you slice it 90 percent of the time, there might be better options.
If you hit it right with this, then give up the game.
