TaylorMade's chief technical officier, Benoit Vincent, doesn't usually get excited about not launching a new product. But on the eve of the company's latest unveiling of new metalwoods, Vincent shared a seemingly incongruous wish.
Vincent's theory at TaylorMade is that higher-lofted drivers featuring the company's "low-forward" center of gravity design are the foundation for optimal launch conditions. The aim to produce higher launch and low spin for all levels of players, including slower swingers and even slicers.
TaylorMade's latest iteration of this design is the company's new Taylormade SLDR S driver, unveiled Monday and allowing Vincent to get closer to that dream of his. There is no 9-degree option in the driver; the lofts start at 10. The SLDR S also comes in 12, 14 and 16-degree models, the latter the highest-lofted 460 cubic-centimeter driver the company has ever introduced.
"It's no secret that high launch and low spin maximize driver distance, but some players think that only tour pros can benefit from lofting up with low forward c.g.," Vincent said. "This is simply not true. By lofting up, you can generate serious distance regardless of swing speed with SLDR S." Related items:
