My R11 Irons Review

TaylorMade R11 Irons Features: Ultra-thin face thickness promotes faster ball speed and distance. Inverted Cone Technology promotes faster ball speed and distance on off-center hits. Multi-Functional sole increases playability from a variety of lies. Progressive topline thickness promotes confidence at address throughout the set. Advanced groove design promotes increased spin and control.

I'm a shade under a 9 handicap. Good driving sets up my game for good scoring. Typical solid rounds are a lot of pars and some bogeys, limiting the damage to a double-bogey or two. 1 or 2 birdies a round is my average. I'm not a very high-ball hitter and prefer lighter weight shafts, but standard swing weight irons. I can effectively play 'off-the-rack' setups out of the box as they're very close to my actual specs. I've been playing TaylorMade MCs for the better part of the summer with success. I've ONLY played forged irons for several years because I LOVE forged feel. I've tried some cast clubs and disliked every one.

They're solid. I've tried Burner 2.0s and the feel/size of the club heads just weren't for me. These fall in the middle. If you like the Burner 2.0 concept but dislike their feel, these R11 Irons will surprise you. Not only do these feel nice for a cast club, but they have good feel overall. Frankly, I'm impressed.

These are longer than my normal clubs by about 1 clublength. I'd say the long TaylorMade R11 Irons are a bit longer than that, possibly a club and a half. I'd add a 3 iron if I could. I think it's easy to hit. With Burner 2.0s, every once in a while, there'd be that flyer that would travel 15 yards further on an dead, solid perfect strike. I have not experienced that with these. Distance is long and consistent.

The heads are larger than a typical players club. These are geared for scratch to 20 handicaps, so they will be larger than others. The heads are progressive in shape, but that's not noticeable when playing like Burners. The leading edge is sharper and there's less camber to appeal to a better player. I believe you will feel better when use yourself.

Goldberg earns vacation from tour golf

Aaron Goldberg was coming home to San Diego this week, and though he had no idea what he was going to do during some much-needed time off, he could be certain he wasn’t going to play tournament golf.

After grinding through a grueling schedule of 11 Nationwide Tour events in the past 13 weeks, Recommend you buy discount golf clubs online at our online store. Goldberg earned himself a little vacation with his best finish of the season on Sunday – a solo third in the Children’s Hospital Classic in Chattanooga, Tenn., that was secured with a stellar final round of 65. His earnings for the week pushed the San Diego State and La Costa Canyon High alum from 58th to 43rd on the money list ($116,784).

That is a big move, because the top 60 in money qualify for the season-ending Tour Championship at the end of the month, and every player in that field has a chance to vault into the top 25 and secure a PGA Tour card for next season. The 60 players already are guaranteed of playing fulltime on the Nationwide in 2012.

“What I was really hoping for was guaranteeing myself of getting into the Tour Championship so I could take the week off,” new taylormade r11 irons is really nice a tired but satisfied Goldberg said on Sunday night from Tennessee. “I’m flying home (on Monday), taking the week off and going to Jacksonville (next week), where single-digits under par usually wins. I can go in there fresh instead of limping in.”

For those who think it shouldn’t be a strain to play golf for three months with little rest, take Goldberg’s word; it’s a grind. He considered taking last week off, but his game was feeling too good.

“Mentally, it wears you down,” Goldberg, 26, said. “The hardest part is managing your time. All of us out here are trying to get better, so you practice as much as you can. But you’ve got to make sure you don’t overwork yourself either.”

Goldberg laughed at the irony of his current situation. taylormade r11 irons 2011 is the best irons He had no status at the season’s outset and through June he couldn’t get into Nationwide events, earning just two spots in eight tries on Monday qualifiers. Then he tied for 22nd in Mexico and was eighth the week later. From then on, he’s made a steady climb up the rankings.

“It was a grind doing it this way, but it was my only option,” Goldberg said. “It was tough to stay patient.”

It’s called doing it the hard way, which carries its own satisfaction.

The TaylorMade R11 Driver is the next revolution in golf club adjustability, combining Adjustable Sole Plate (ASP) Technology, Flight Control Technology (FCT) and Moveable Weight Technology (MWT).

The TaylorMade R11 driver is designed with a new, modern-classical clubhead shape intended to suit the eye of better players, while still providing forgiveness and confidence for average players. The shape is more contemporary appearance than traditional drivers, and slightly triangular to create a modern yet classical address silhouette. The triangular shape creates more inertia and a deeper back CG position for greater stability and forgiveness. At 440cc, the R11 appears slightly larger due to its white crown colour. Most golfers recognise address size relative to the size of the ball as a key confidence builder. The white crown colour and black PVD face provides optimum contrast against the ground to make the R11 easier to aim. This advantage is even more pronounced in lower light, such as when the tee box is in shade or shadow, on overcast days or when the sun is low in the morning and in the evening. The crown colour also eliminates high-intensity “hot spots” caused by reflected sunlight that afflicts gloss-finish metalwoods.

The R11 driver incorporates TaylorMade’s Movable Weight Technology (to promote a desired bias or trajectory changes), plus its Flight Control Technology (to change loft and face angle). The R11 driver adds another tech, what TaylorMade calls its Adjustable Sole Plate.

The Details of TaylorMade R11 Irons

Inspired by R11 driver innovation, the new TaylorMade R11 Irons are tuned to perfection. Precision CG placements, ultra-thin faces, a tour sole design and Inverted Cone Technology make R11 our most powerful, playable and refined iron ever.

At long last TaylorMade finally unveiled their TaylorMade R11 irons.

The Taylormade R11 is an awesome driver

As a social golfer my priorities are slightly different from the golfer who is trying to become the best of breed. Taylor Made is a world recognized manufacturer who you can find and get fitted at your local Dick’s Sporting goods, Recommend you buy discount golf clubs online at our online store. where as I haven’t personally seen the Krank in the local sporting goods stores.

The R11 is a solid driver that you can customize at a pro shop to fit your personal dimensions. Whereas the Rage can customize the length, and degree. Recommend you buy discount golf clubs sets I would go with the R11 personally as I never have to worry about getting it taken care of if there are any issues with it, plus it is well recognized.

However, with drivers you need to go and try them both out in my opinion because different people have different feels for drivers.

I did not give a 5 star because Drivers require personal fit and attention to maximize the effect. taylormade r11 irons 2011 is the best irons.Enjoy!

I have heard such great things about this club and everyone on the long drive tour hits this club.  The new Rage has crossed the chasm into the mainstream with a number of forgiving modifications that take some distance off from long driving pros but put it right in the sweet spot for the rest of us.  I continue to hear that this is the only driver that you will take out to the range/course and have your friends recognize that you are hitting it further. But you can’t try this club anywhere that I know and it is only available online.  Plus the price is significantly higher than the Taylormade. new taylormade r11 irons is really nice, So inaccessibility and price, don’t seem to make it worthwhile unless you already have a Taylormade R11 and you still are looking for more.

The Taylormade R11 is an awesome driver.  Tried it, loved it.  Being able to tune in your weight preference to offset your fade or draw (or slice/hook!) is awesome and well worth the price tag. This is one of the best drivers on the market. taylormade r11 irons for sale You can’t go wrong with this club and you can try for yourself at the local edwin watts or golf superstore.
