TaylorMade are promoting the Taylormade SLDR driver with the line of 'more distance through more loft' as the head creates much less backspin than other models. The key thing is that I was able to achieve this with a 10.5° driver compared to my current 9.5° driver. Although it is showing a gain of only 3 yards in total distance, the average distance shown with the SLDR hides a couple of 280 yard shots so the theory does work in practice. Using a 9.5° driver adjusted up a degree to 10.5° slightly closes the face to make it more forgiving than the 9.5° or even the standard 10.5° model for me. Weird, but it works as the dispersion view of the trackman backed this up with a much tighter pattern for these shots too. The TaylorMade SLDR succeeds the TaylorMade R1 driver and there are a lot of significant changes. Now bear in mind that changing the loft will also affect the lie of the club slightly and there is nothing to adjust the lie on this club, unlike others in the market. However this is where the sliding 20 gram weight comes in. If the shape of the shot needs tweaking to compensate for the lie change or because you just have a fade or a draw then the blue weight can be unscrewed and moved along a track of 21 possible positions across the 7 marks shown on the weight track. The shaft is the engine of the golf offer uk club and with technology improving all the time, new shaft types can also result in greater distance gains. Overall,it should be able to cope with whatever type of swing you put on it. Like all adjustable features they should be viewed as a one-time personal custom fit like pro's get on a tour van rather than tweaked on a regular basis.
