Just bought this driver on Ebay and "wow", what a piece of art. Played a few rounds with it and practiced with it at the driving range. This baby has more air time than I have ever had. I was playing a Ping G5, TFC 100D stiff shaft but it does not compare to the TaylorMade. This driver has the Mitsubishi Rayon RE AX TP64 stiff shaft and it really kicks the ball. Nice ball flight, somewhat penetrating with lots of carry. Easy to fade and draw the ball. It also gives you some needed roll once it lands. Try one, you will not be disappointed.

After playing Cleveland drivers for the last 6 years, the Hibore XL my last driver, I decided to give Taylor Made a try after holding the R7 Limited in my hands at the pro shop.( bought one new on E-Bay for $150 instead of the $399 the Pro Shop wanted) I really liked the triangle shaped head, and was intrigued by the movable weights technology.
I took the R7 Limited out to the driving range the day I got it, excited yet a bit concerned that I wouldn't hit it any better than my Hibore XL and had wasted $150. I put the weights in the 'draw' position- the 16 gram weight in the heel and the two 1 gram weights in the middle and toe slots. Upon the first swing I noticed right away that my fade (sometimes slice, you know how it goes) had been eliminated. I hit about 25 balls and everyone of them went straight or had a slight draw on them. I didn't seem to gain or lose any distance, the ball seemed to go as far as the Hibore XL. I did notice the R7 Limited had a bit of a muted sound compared to the Hibore, but felt solid and I could feel the ball exploding off the clubface.
Well, yesterday I took my R7 Limited out to the course to play 18. I hit some poor pulls and thins the first few holes, and then I seemed to get the feel of the club and got into a rhythm. Man, let me tell you, when I finally put a good swing on it, I boomed the ball right down the middle with a slight draw. I can't explain how sweet the feeling was, I had never had that feeling with any other driver. I continued to boom it hole after hole, and noticed that I was at least 10-15 yards further than I usually was on these holes. On the 18th, a 420 yard dogleg Par-4,I usually am about 170-180 out after my drive- occasionally 160. Well, yesterday after hitting the R7 Limited, I was at 145 yards- closer than I had ever been before.
All I can say is WOW!! What a marvelous piece of equipment. I am in love with the R7 Limited. The red Ozik shaft goes great with the black clubhead as well- a great look. A reviewer in Golf Magazines' Club Test said the R7 Limited was his WoW club, and called her "Crush-a-rama". I completely concur. I would recommend this club to anyone- it may take 40 balls or so to get used to it, but once you do, you'll be saying 'WOW!' as well. Great Driver.

I got this driver in on a trade. I had just bought the 09 Burner. The first time I hit the course with this driver, I was amazed. I hit it long and straight, hit more fairways than I had in 2 years. I love this club. The new Burner is sitting in my garage.

The superquad

I played most of this season with this driver, set up with the weights neutral. It came with the REAX shaft - stiff. I never felt confident with it. I seemed to spray more balls than with my old TM R540XD with the Aldila NV65 shaft (stiff also).

About three weeks ago, I put the Aldila shaft in the R7. At the range, I hit it great - long, straight and nice launch angle (9.5 loft btw). I have only played nine holes with it so far. Missed one fairway due to a bad swing. Hit the other five right where I wanted to.... a long high fade on a left to right par five, a high draw to carry a fairway bunker on a right to left par 4, a controlled fade on a tight par 4, etc. I'm not a huge hitter anymore and I do play at 5600 feet above sea level, but I was getting it out there between 250 and 275.

This is a great club now that I've got the right shaft (for me anyway) in it. I guess the lesson to be learned is that the wrong shaft can make a great driver just okay - or maybe even unacceptable.

I have owned this driver for two months now and am very happy with it. I have played about 12 rounds with it and have had it out to the driving range a least that many times. I did have to spend some time with it to get the ball flight I wanted. I typically play a fade off the tee with a low to med. trajectory. The first few times I was loosing balls to the left, a first for me and the flight was too high. I fixed this by not having the ball so far forward in my stance and lowering my tee height. Bingo it now goes straight down the middle of the fairway. Don't be afraid to adjust your set up if you are having troble with a new club. This driver is the most forgiving club I have hit, heel and toe shots are still in play with good distance. I am hitting this 15 + yards longer than my old Clevland Launcher, 250-260 avg. with a number of them 280-290 when I flush it. It's nice to hear your buddies say you are driving the ball better than every. Give this driver a try.

I have played primarily with Titleist drivers. 905T and last eight months with the 905R with the Aldila NV stiff. Age and injury forced me to consider a regular shaft. I had tried Taylor Made drivers in the past and wasn't impressed. I borrowed one and was surprised with the results. So I bought an R7 460 (10.5) with a Grafalloy Blue regular shaft and have been very pleased. The ball wants to go straight. The flight is a little high, but I have been able to lower it with a little effort, and still hit fairways. It just feels easy to hit. Maybe the shaft. I have had the same experience as some of the other reviews in noticing a small loss in distance, but it is worth it for the increased number of fairways I'm hitting. Only wish I had been able to find the club and shaft combo in a 9.5 loft.

Hi there,
I'm 15 years old and play ALOT of golf , i was pretty happy with my long game but wanted to take it to the next level (i basically needed a reliable forgiving wood to reach par 5's in 2 and to tee off on short par 4's) So i bought a ''Ping G5'' 3 wood with a regular prolaunch graphite shaft and well all i can say is W0W! This club has really improved my game not just the gameplay but my confidence too , I am now reaching my par 5's in 2 shots consistently along with nearly reaching the short par 4's in one!I highly recommend this club to all golfers looking to invest on a forgiving wood because this certainly does the job!!!
