TaylorMade R9 TP Irons Are Specially Beveled To Reduce Turf Resistance

Along with the Raylor, Taylormade has brought us their latest irons, which share the name with their very popular line of woods from 2009.

 For the R9 and R9 TP irons, TaylorMade sought to design an iron that combined modern performance (as in forgiveness) with superb distance in a classic frame. The virtually weightless foam actually originates as a powder that is sealed in this chamber, and then transforms into the foam substance after the clubhead is heated during production. They feature a deep, undercut cavity, with a broad, low center of gravity sole and heel-toe weighting for added stability. The shape of the taylormade r9 tp irons head is very similar to that of the popular Tour Preferred irons, but by use of the Inverted Cone Technology, and the way the face blends into the hosel, there is a larger overall contact area. Among the longer, more forgiving models; short irons, in particular, go up to one club longer on solid hits; shots get airborne very easily and fly on a high trajectory; compact head with a slightly thicker topline is appealing in address position.

TaylorMade R9 TP Irons feature a chamber behind the face of the club that is filled with an almost-weightless foam and a silicone shock absorber positioned directly behind the center of the face in the 3- through 6-irons. TaylorMade says the soles of the r9 tp irons for sale are specially beveled to reduce turf resistance and help the bottom of the club glide through impact. Perimeter weighting emphasis in the long and mid-irons helps to maintain stability throughout impact. Like the long irons, weighting was pushed to the heel and toe for added forgiveness. The iron is then capped off with a nickel chrome-plated stainless steel and pearl finish. The cavity of the clubhead is very pleasing to the eye; again Taylor Made did well in choosing the black color to visually shrink the overall size of the head.

 Remember the VCC (Velocity Control Chamber)? It's also used in the r9 tp irons, but only in the 2-iron up through the 5-iron. One standout design feature in the R9 TP is the variable progressive face thickness. The Inverted Cone Technology is again utilized throughout the entire set to provide consistent distance from off-center contact. At first sight the R9 TP sole looked very wide to me (comparing most similarly to the old Taylor Made LT irons). The R9 TP mishits carried closer to the desired distance over the 05 TP mishits. On that same note the R9 TPs were greatly improved over the 05 TPs when hitting fat shots. The result is a classiclooking set with long irons (2-5) that feature thin, flexible clubfaces (due to the hollow-headed design) for higher COR and more distance. The TaylorMade R9 TP Irons are aimed dead center at the Scratch to Low Capper who wants just a little forgiveness without giving up their shot shaping ability and blade like control. Any else to comment?

Scotty Cameron Putter Strikes You As A Logical Move

Scotty Cameron will soon be sporting a new look. Let's take a general look at first. Woods will reunite with his Scotty Cameron by Titleist Newport 2 before the PGA Championship in August. When Woods once again faces firm, slick greens, a return to his scotty cameron strikes me as a logical move. After all, he has won 13 majors and 72 tournaments worldwide with this putter, making it by far the winningest single putter in the history of men’s professional golf. The new collection of Scotty Cameron California Putters features the best of classic design and modern weighting. Here is something rabid fans of Scotty Cameron will be interested in. Cameron himself will engrave the first 500 putters that are made of each model. The quantity is split, as 270 will be made available on a first come, first serve in the US, while the remaining 230 are internationally bound. Larry Silveira, a putter expert for Titleist's scotty cameron putters, took me through how he fits a player for a belly putter. This easily can be done by the fitting system that extends the length of the shaft to properly fit the players. Putters with this insert have been limited (the Teryllium 10 Newport 2 and Newport 2.5 are the latest), and Cameron has gained his fame with solid metal putters. After the length and head are determined, adjustments to loft and lie are next, followed by a trip to the putting green to test out the new putter. But what fans will notice immediately is a departure from the silver finish that has been the trademark of the Studio Select putters, Cameron produces. The California line also has a black Cameron Tour grip with dancing logo along with an art of putting shaftband and headcover. Cameron did introduce a face insert called Teryllium, which is a copper alloy with a soft feel. In fact, Woods won his first major title at the 1997 Masters with a Teryllium insert in his putter. Woods used this style of putter to win a record 3 US Amateur Championships during his amateur career, but for some reason stopped using the original in favour of the scotty cameron putters for sale designed alternative. This needs some explanation. After all, most skilled players want a putter that allows them to make an aggressive stroke, not a hot putter that catapults the ball off the face. The adjustable shaft will go from 41 inches to a little more than 49 inches. With end cap and grip, the putter can even extend a little longer, if necessary. The bronzing process used in the new look is actually baked and burned 303-milled steel and not a plated finish for those who are inquisitive towards how the outward appearance is achieved. Any message to the Scotty Cameron?

Mizuno MP67 Irons Produce Something Close To A Full On Hook Or Slice

Hitting a fade or draw can be easily achieved with these an MP-67 iron. Here let's check more details about it.

The clubs really can feel so effortless at times, and really smooth at impact. You will know when you've hit the ball well and have made a good swing. The Mizuno MP 67 2-iron has a loft of 19 degrees, a length of 39.25 inches and a lie of 59 degrees. An inconsistent swing will produce very inconsistent results with the Mizuno MP-67s. A rolled leading edge, cambered mid-sole, and rolled trailing edge deliver consistent striking ability from all types of lies, and modified U-grooves produce the ideal spin rate for maximum playability from anywhere on the course. Like with the MP-62 ironns from Mizuno, these clubs definitely require a good and repeatable golf swing in order to be effective in players hands. But these irons really do get the ball responding and spinning well on landing, again though this was on the good strikes. Mis-hits that did hit the green with the mizuno mp 67 irons, like with most irons, didn't respond quite so well.

Miss-hits that did hit the green with the mizuno mp 67, like with most irons, didn't respond quite so well. The Mizuno MP 67 Irons are extremely popular throughout the world. Very easy to hit if you are experienced enough to hit a blade. Beautiful look and finish. They force you to make the effort to get better and improve your swing. Because you will need to have a good swing and find the sweet spot more often than not to get the best results from them. This new material meets specifications six-times tighter than the industry standard. The clubs really can feel so effortless at times, and really smooth at impact. You will know when you've hit the ball well and have made a good swing. As mis-hits when setting up for a draw or a fade, could dramatically over do the effect you're after, and produce something close to a full on hook or slice.

Meaning that a Mizuno MP-67 6 iron poorly hit, goes roughly as far as a 7 or 8 iron would with a good strike. Quite right that you need to be a low hanicap. The sweet spot is very sweet but can be brutal if you are only very slightly off. Hitting a fade or draw can be easily achieved with these an MP-67 iron. Though when setting up for one of those types of shots, it's important to hit the ball well and put a good swing on the club. The MP-67 long irons achieve a mid-high trajectory, while the scoring irons deliver a mid-trajectory. A capable low handicapper who practices regularly should have no trouble setting up for a high launch on an approach shot, or drilling the ball in low in higher winds.

However one thing that was very clear was that mis-hits with the mizuno mp 67 irons for sale are relatively short distance wise. The forgiveness accuracy wise isn't too bad for blades, but hit a shot poorly and you likely won't be making the green.
 Have fun!
