New Product: The R9 Gets a Big Brother
TaylorMade Golf’s latest line extension is the R9 460 which utilizes the Flight Control Technology (adjustable shaft orientation and movable sole weights) in a larger head than the R9 introduced back in February.
“FCT proved itself to be a major, major metalwood innovation immediately after we launched the R9 driver earlier this year,” said Sean Toulon, TaylorMade executive vice president of innovation. “Tour pros took to it right away, and it quickly became the No. 1 driver model on the PGA Tour. Amateur golfers also embraced it quickly, as sales have been fantastic around the world, especially in the United States, Europe and Japan.”
Available now in off-course and green grass shops, the R9 460 sells for an attractive $299. An R9 460 TP model for professional players and low handicap amateurs was also introduced.
