Quick update, the irons are reallys tarting to click for me. I am striking the ball much better and seeing great results. I am playing again tomorrow, I will provide a full update after that.
Wake- what kind of shafts do you have in the irons?
What's changed for you? Just getting comfortable with the club?
Looking forward to it.
Thanks for the detailed update, DD. If you had a choice, would you like to see the ball flight go down a bit?
DD, I saw that you said that you are getting high ball fight... Have you tried these irons with other balls or only the Penta?
Thanks
Hi CB, I called Taylormade directly today and told them about my loss of distance of 1 club compared to the Burner 2.0's that I was using. They said that they were not surprised by this. They told me that If I gad gone from the R9 to the R11, I would not lose a full club. They said going from the 2.0 technology to the R11 irons it is possible the the distance loss could happen.
Wow just caught up on this thread. I want to go to gg and hit the r11 again. I'll take my mizzy 6 iron to compare. Hopefully thur ill make it. Stupid cold has me locked down. Dd your reviews are great

They have a deal going on at GG right now for the R11 irons. Something like getting an extra $150 towards trade in when yo buy the R11's. I might just have to jump on this deal this weekend since the weather looks bad.

I thought it was 150 towards any irons BUT the R11's, which one of us misread it?
I just don't want to see someone get all excited and head to GG to buy them, and it not work out.

Well, I actually didnt read it the sales guys were pointing it out to me and I was only half listening. Maybe someone can confirm in the next couple days. But I was hitting the R11 6 iron at the time and they were trying to get me to buy with this deal. I could be wrong though.

I got an email from them with the extra $150 deal and it does say in the fine print that the R11's are excluded from this offer.
Figures. Why would they want to discount you on their newest product? Tons of people will buy them anyways without the discount.
I was fortunate to win the R11 irons on THP's PGA Championship contest. Thank you THP and Taylormade. It's been a bit of a wait due to the Sept 1 release date, but the irons arrived today! I'm so excited. I'll do some photos or videos in the next week. I'm traveling out of town for my Son's wedding on Thursday and will be gone through the weekend, so may not get a chance to hit them for reals until next week.
The irons are fantastic looking, and the balance is terrific. I'm envisioning long and penetrating ball flight with a slight draw. I'll let you know how my actual swing works out with the visualization. I chose the stock steel shafts in regular flex. Red Golf Pride VDR grips that I thought would look nice with the red accents on the clubs - and I was right! These are absolutely works of art. I've been gaming the CBs for five months, and and hitting those pretty well right now. I'm anxious to see the similarties and differences.
I think Taylormade has done a superb job in disguising the GI attributes of the R11 irons. The cavity looks a bit bigger than the cavities on the CBs, but just a smidge. I think the topline on the R11 is actually a bit wider than on the CBs, but what you see at address is the satin portion of the topline, which is smaller than on the CBs, so the R11 has the illusion of a smaller topline. At least that's my opinion after eyeballing them. From the info on the Taylormade website, the R11 offset is slightly bigger on the longer irons, and less on the PW and AW than the CBs. I don't really like a large offset, and the R11 offset doesn't bother me at all. The clubs just scream "hit me". the design just seems superb.
So those are my impressions from taking a few practice swings out in the yard. Will get them behind a golf ball the first chance I get.
Congrats Rob! Hope to see those new sticks out on the course in the future.
I finally got a chance to check out the clubs the other day, sure are pretty in person! Certainly different from my 2.0s when looking down at the top line. Definitely would be curious to give em a swing.
Penta's, ProV1x, and various range balls. Ball flight seemed fairly consistent.
