TaylorMade R9 460 Driver Review

Unless you are a low handicap golfer you probably found the head of the standard R9 driver a little on the small side at 420cc. This is because that is the maximum size of head for moveable weight drivers.

With the R9 460, TaylorMade have removed this option and you just have the adjustable Flight Control Technology which allows you to adjust the angle of the face of the clubhead relative to the shaft.

We prefer this kind of adjustability as it seems to have a greater effect on ball flight and in the TaylorMade R9 460 driver it works well. With 8 different positions for the shaft, there should be one to suit you and the adjustment with the single screw and wrench is easy to understand and change.

The club is a little longer front to back than the R9 and is verging on being triangular shape but stop just short and still looks pretty good. As the weight is further back the flight is a little higher on average than the R9 but still penetrating.

The Aldila Reax shaft is pretty good and is a normal length shaft even though it is 1 inch longer than the standard R9 shaft. As the head is bigger the sound is a little louder than the R9 but don’t mistake this for less feel as we think the TaylorMade R9 460 driver feels just as good and despite being a bit pricey is one of the bess adjustable drivers in the market today.
