Golf equipment has certainly come full circle in recent years.
Everything from irons, drivers, fairway woods, and even putters has gone
a complete overhaul in the way they are looked at and played. When
hybrids first came out they were designed to replace the longer irons in
an iron set that were harder to hit. Generally speaking. Now with
recent technological advancements, hybrids are now replacing fairway
woods. They’ve come a long way since first being thought of as a
‘cheating club.’ Taylormade created some serious noise in 2011 by
introducing the color white to its line of clubs and that white trickled
down to its popular Rescue hybrid as well. THP put the TaylorMade R11 Hybrid reviews Rescue
through some testing to see if the performance would match that of the
paint.

TaylorMade R11 Driver adjustments
The Adjustable Sole Plate (ASP) technology allows you the option of
opening or closing the face angle of the R11 driver by two degrees
without changing the loft of the club. After the loft or launch angle of
the driver is set with Flight Control Technology, you can tweak the
look of the driver at address by rotating the Adjustable Sole Plate.
The TaylorMade R11 Driver adjustments has a 440cc Aero Shape rounded crown to reduce drag and increase club head speed for more distance, six yards longer than the R9 SuperTri. The White non-glare crown and black club face promote easy alignment.
This driver promotes up to 100 yards of side-to-side trajectory change and 1,000 RPM backspin change, giving you consistent power and distance.
The TaylorMade R11 Driver hit the shelves early last month and it is the latest and greatest from the makers of the number one driver in golf. There are three major differences from last years R9 series; the white non-glare club head, Adjustable Sole Plate (ASP) technology and a smaller 440cc head. With the new ASP technology, TaylorMade has made another step towards a completely adjustable driver.
In the r7 and R9, an aluminum sleeve attached to the shaft, which screwed into the head in a variety of face angles. Not anymore. Now the R11's sleeve has eight settings to increase or decrease the effective loft by as much as one degree.
Face angle is controlled by an adjustable aluminum sole plate. By moving the red triangular plate into the closed, neutral or open position, you can adjust the look at address. The face settings range from 4 degrees open to 4 degrees closed

TaylorMade R11 Driver sale
The R11 Driver Flight Control Technology (FCT) allows you to increase or
decrease the launch angle by one degree. There are eight different FCT
positions that allow you to increase or decrease the loft in .5 degree
increments and with every adjustment comes a change in the face angle as
well as the spin rate.
The standard shaft in the R11 is the Fujikura Blur 60 gram shaft, available in X, S, R and M flexes. The 360° graphics mean the visuals look the same regardless of the position of the shaft. Because of the flight control technology on offer the TaylorMade R11 Driver sale is only available in 9° or 10.5° models. However, these heads can then be set 1° higher, 1° lower or 0.5° up or down.
The TaylorMade R11 Driver comes equipped with Movable Weight Technology (MWT), which allows you to tune the driver’s center of gravity to promote a draw or neutral ball flight. With the 10g weight in the heel and the 1g weight in the toe, you’ll get more of a draw bias ball flight. With the 1g weight in the heel and the 10g weight in the toe, R11 generates a more neutral ball flight.
Movable weight affects the left-to-right flight, while unscrewing and resetting the shaft into the head sets the loft. A new adjustable sole plate adds a third custom option to the head. The face angle and loft can be adjusted independently. A section of the sole is unscrewed and reset (open, closed or neutral) to change the position of the face at address.

The key to distance is to get the set-up of the club right for you. By
tweaking the club - or even better, being fitted to your personal specs -
will help you produce
the best results. There are obvious differences
in flight depending on how the club is set. You can set up for a flight
that gives you extra run or carry depending on turf conditions and the
weather.

TaylorMade R11 Driver Review
The taylormade r11 is a bit of a hit and miss for some people mainly
because of the white face. I don't own this club I just demoed it. The
customization you get on this club is probably the most you can get on
any club at the minute which is a plus. It is nice and forgiving too on
off hits and it makes a nice sound. Distance wise it is what you would
expect. It won't go miles further than your current driver but a just a
noticeable bit. I really was put of the white head I really don't like
it which for me has put me off buying it. It attracts soo much
unwanted attention and is a distraction to swing. The stock shaft was
ok in it but because the titleist 910 is probably just as good if not
better with the better stock shafts and cheaper price I think that may
be a better option

Taylormade R11 Fairway Wood Settings
The Technology
In 2004, TaylorMade pioneered adjustability with the R7® quad, incorporating the then revolutionary Movable Weight Technology™ (MWT®), putting CG control in the hands of golfers to promote different types of ball flight. The partially adjustable driver brought straighter flight for multiple swing types and this was the start of numerous offerings with MWT from woods to rescues and even putters. With each subsequent R7 driver we saw a significant boost in performance over the last, including the R7 Limited, which boasted 35 yards of side-to-side change in trajectory. The next revolution warranted its own line, and the R9 was born when TaylorMade introduced for the first time, Flight Control Technology (FCT®) giving golfers eight different options for face angle, loft and lie angle. FCT’s eight options and MWT’s three options meant twenty-four potential settings on your driver and the first fully adjustable driver.The TaylorMade R11 Driver adds the latest technology and of course, a cool new acronym. Adjustable Sole Plate Technology (ASP®) adds a dedicated function for adjusting the face angle, creating what TaylorMade is calling "The 3 Dimensions of Distance" corresponding to the three technologies working together.
- Dimension 1: Loft (FCT) – Increase or decrease launch angle
- Dimension 2: Face Angle (ASP) – Select and open, closed or neutral address
- Dimension 3: Flight Path (MWT) – Promote a fade with heavier weight in the toe, lighter weight in the heel. Promote a draw with lighter weight in toe, heavier weight in heel.
Taylormade R11 Fairway Wood Specs
The TaylorMade R11 Fairway Wood is the latest and greatest
from the makers of the No.1 drivers and woods in golf. It has new technology,
like an adjustable sole that can adjust the face angle of the club, as well
as the ability to adjust the launch angle, making it a truly adjustable fairway
wood. This club promotes up to 60 yards of side-to-side trajectory change and
1,000 RPM backspin change, giving you consistent power and distance. It has
a new deeper face and deeper center of gravity, which produces a more penetrating
flight. The white non-glare crown and black clubface (which provides easy alignment)
will improve your game and that sleek white finish will make you the center
of attention on the course and in the clubhouse.
Additional Features:Taylormade R11 Fairway Wood Specs
Well, some basics about me. I've been playing for about 4 years now and would probably be in the mid-high handicap range. Never took any lessons (a buddy of mine who played high school and some college golf introduced me to the game and taught me my swing) and learned the intricacies by playing with friends, family, and strangers on the course. My swing speed is on average at or around 105-108 mphs. I have a steep attack angle which is great for irons and wedges, but horrible for woods and drivers. Driving is my weakest part of the game hence why I need to find a good performing 3 wood that I can rely on when I need to get on the fairway.
Specs:
(Non-TP version) 14* 3 wood with standard Fujikura Blur 70g shaft in stiff flex.
***I did not move any of the settings for this review...I want this to be a baseline reading of what the r11 can do right out of the box***
