Tell you, I just purchased the Taylormade R11 irons. They are really sweet when you hit them. However they do not stop as fast as I would like. Distance from the R11 Irons was a bit of a let down for me, on average, I didn’t gain any significant yardage over my Burners. I was hoping with the deeper center of gravity and the precision weight port that I’d see at least an additional club length in distance, but alas, tis not to be. They feature a progressive topline thickness that increases as you get closer to the short irons, but this is barely noticeable and the look of the clubs at address really gives a confidence boost. Compared the lofts to titleist AP2 714 irons and in every case the R11 lofts are 2-3 degrees less. The R11 Irons feature an ultra-thin face construction which promotes faster ball speed and distance in middle and long irons. The thinner clubface also results in an increased Coefficient of Restitution assist in greater distances and control. It’s been almost 10 years since TaylorMade introduced the first popular adjustable driver. This new TaylorMade SLDR driver from the equipment company that popularized adjustable technology makes it easier than ever to dial in your preferred ball flight. Cosmetically, the driver looks great, too, with a classic shape and charcoal-gray crown that contrasts nicely with the silver face. You can't go wrong with simple, clean, and classy. But as significant as the adjustability improvements are, the most radical change is the movement of CG much more forward. The common notion for years has been that deep CG is the way to go for the high moment of inertia or forgiveness it provides, and it still is, but the corollary is that it also produces more spin, which can mean less distance. A forward CG, however, requires a higher launch, so golfers will need to increase their loft by as much as two to three degrees if they plan on using the SLDR.
