Taylormade Drivers: Renowned for the No 1 Driver in Golf


Innovation is TaylorMade’s watchword, especially when it comes to woods and drivers – the company was after all started by Gary Adams, the Tour player who invented the metal wood!

The No 1 driver in golf

TaylorMade adidas Golf (TMaG) now dominates the driver market, achieving this goal in late 2005 when it officially became the ‘No. 1 driver in golf’. The company had its first $1 billion revenue year in 2006, marking only the second time a golf brand has achieved this in industry history.

Drivers – distance through optimisation and speed:

2009 saw the introduction of the new R9 series. The R9 is built on the R7 movable weight technology by adding Flight Control Technology (FCT) which allows the player to adjust the face angle and loft/lie of the driver to correct shot shape. Combined with TaylorMade’s proprietary Moveable Weight Technology (MWT), the flight control allows, in theory, for 75 yards of lateral shot adjustment plus additional shot height adjustment due to the changing of the face angle, as compared to the latest R7 series driver, the R7 Limited, which has 40 yards of lateral shot adjustment.

  • R9 SuperTri Driver, R9 Superdeep TP, R9 Driver, R9 TP, R9 460, R9 460 TP
    • For the first time combining FCT and MWT in a 460cc head, these TaylorMade drivers give 24 combinations of face angle and centre of gravity location to promote 75 yards of side-to-side trajectory change, all in a more forgiving head.
    • A new lighter FCT sleeve, deeper clubface and deeper centre of gravity location promote higher launch angle and higher spin-rate
  • Burner Superfast, Burner '09, Burner '09 TP
    • The TaylorMade Burner Superfast driver is 14 grams lighter than the Burner 09, promoting faster clubhead speed for unparalleled distance.
    • Next generation Dual Crown Technology incorporates a dual crown and large powerbase to lower CG in the clubhead, and promote high launch and low spin for more distance
    • Ultra-thin wall technology - the thin yet strong walls save weight to contribute to lighter overall club weight, while a more aerodynamic head shape reduces drag and promotes faster ball speed and the bigger, more expansive clubface makes it easier to hit and builds confidence.
  • R7 Limited
    • TaylorMade Flight Control Technology (FCT) lets you change the face angle, loft and lie to promote up to 40 yards of side-to-side trajectory change
    • Maximum size 460cc clubhead and inverted cone technology promote maximum forgiveness on off-centre hits, while the deeper centre of gravity position makes it easier to launch the ball high and long.
  • R9 460 Women’s
    • TaylorMade Flight Control Technology (FCT) lets you change the face angle, loft and lie to promote up to 40 yards of side-to-side trajectory change and the maximum size 460cc clubhead and inverted cone technology promote maximum forgiveness on off-center hits. A deeper back CG position makes it easier to launch the ball high and long.

Taylormade Woods

  • R9/R9 Ti fairway woods
    • Launches the ball longer and straighter by changing the face, loft and lie angles using TaylorMade’s proprietary Flight Control Technology (FCT) into eight different positions.
    • Larger mid-face depth means more face area for improved consistency on tee shots and out of the rough.
    • On the Ti version, the titanium head allows an ultra-low centre of gravity for easy launch from all lies.
  • Burner Superfast 2.0 fairway woods
    • Improved SuperFast technology package promotes more swing speed, more ball speed and more distance – 10 yards longer than standard fairways.
    • There is a bigger, more expansive clubface and the largest steel head (200cc 3-wood) TaylorMade have ever offered
  • Rescue 09 and Rescue 09 TP
    • TaylorMade Flight Control Technology lets you change the face angle, loft and lie while the new compact head shape allows greater versatility, playability and confidence.
    • A lower CG makes it easier to launch the ball high and long and the new low-friction sole promotes clean, square contact.
  • Burner Superfast Rescue
    • Improved SuperFast Technology package promotes more swing speed, more ball speed and more distance.
    • The triangular high-MOI clubhead is exceptionally forgiving and easy to hit
    • Features ultra-thin wall technology and low, precision-place CG for high, distance-enhancing launch angle. 
  • Burner Superfast Women’s Fairway
    •  Improved SuperFast Technology package promotes more swing speed, more ball speed and more distance - 10 yards longer than standard fairways. And a bigger, more expansive clubface and largest steel head (200cc 3-wood) ever!
  • Burner Superfast Women’s Rescue
    • Improved SuperFast Technology package promotes more swing speed, more ball speed and more distance, and the triangular high-MOI clubhead is exceptionally forgiving and easy to hit.
    • Features ultra-thin wall technology and a low, precision-place CG for high, distance-enhancing launch angle.
