The TaylorMade R7 SuperQuad driver is TaylorMade's moveable weight driver with 4 weight plugs at 460cc. Previously they only had 4 weights at 420cc or the R5 Dual TP with 2 weights at 460cc, so this is the maximum they can do and it certainly slots very well into their range.
I liked the all black head finish which gave it sinister look, although some may not like the face and crown being the same colour for alignment. Performance wise it was very good and moving the weights around did affect the trajectory. The TaylorMade SuperQuad has a bigger difference between the weights (12 and 1 gram) so the trajectory changes are more obvious than with the R7 Quad.
At 460 cc, the r7 SuperQuad's MOI is inherently high. Plus, it receives an MOI boost from the weight of the four ports and cartridges concentrated in the heel and toe areas. Remember, the benefit of high MOI is that it keeps ball speed and distance high on miss-hits. TaylorMade's patented Inverted Cone Technology does the same thing that high MOI does: preserves ball speed and distance on miss-hits.
I usually hit the ball a very long way, averaging 280+, and hit a 370 yarder (wind aided) with his driver. On one hit, there was a familiar thunk. The crown cracked - my second cracked R7. This crack was much smaller than the first one, about the size of my pinky fingernail. I can still use it to hit 280+ drives.
For players who demand the freedom to choose specific sets of launch conditions in their pursuit of greater distance, the r7 SuperQuad is the longest driver with Movable Weight Technology (MWT) that we've ever created. The contemporarily shaped club head is finished entirely in a deep, rich black, including the clubface. Yellow accents on the sole, similar to those on the r7 425 Driver and r7 460 Driver, offer a dramatic contrast.
The shaft in the standard SuperQuad model is OK, but if you have the cash then go for the TP version, which also has a more square alignment then this slightly closed version. As well as questioning its value for money, we have to mark it down for the noise at impact. It seems to be a trend now, but the crash sound at impact doesn't do it for us, especially when other TaylorMade drivers give a much better sound and feel.
