I'm sure it would work for some people, but there are just so many options out there (and the adaptors are so plentiful) that many would be better off buying the standard version with their shaft of choice.

Ya I agree I hit a TP shaft but I have a really high swing speed and I did get fitted for it at the MATT centre but they are 100$-150$ more than the regular shafts so people who don't need them aren't just hurting there game they are also wasting a lot of money.

do I feel an R11 merge coming on?

Agree, hence my Miyazaki love in the R9. So many choices.
The part of the TP version that might work for some is that the TP version can give someone access to upgraded shafts in the R series. So if someone knows they are perfectly fit with a Project X or something else in the TP list, than it might work to save some cash. Outside of that, I agree, there is no reason whatsoever.

TM has put this up on their website now too. Little change of lofts as they've gone 9 instead of 9.5. Club head is 440cc instead of 460 now too.

The original R9 was not 460 either.

Was told yesterday that we should have the new drivers and irons in 10-14 days. Still ahead of release, but will have to work fast to get the review done for people by release.
I can't wait for the R11 then the R11 460 in 6 months. Then next season we will get the R11-Supertri and 6 months later get the R11-Superdeep.

If I were a betting man, then i would say yes. But I have not seen a single thing about it.

The R11 should be really interesting. Lots of technology packed into this one from what I can see. Hopefully the shaft options are there too. I know it should be easy to swap but the cost of doing so can be a hurdle at times.
It's Taylormade, I bet you a dozen balls we see a new Taylormade driver by the end of July.

Dustin Johnson was on "Fairways of Life" this morning talking about the new equipment from TM. He said he is going to use the Forged MC's for his lower irons and then from 6-PW use the MB's. He was also talking about the R11 and how he really liked the adjustable sole plate. He thought the white was really cool too.

Is that a bad thing or a good thing?
I think it is a great thing. More for us to discuss and eventually buy. Plus if they keep putting out new models, then business is good.
I just think that Taylormade will have a 460cc version of this club on the market by the end of July. I feel so strongly on this fact that I made the wager.

Agree with you, more clubs to try and buy is a good thing. And I think we'll see a 460 version out sooner then later too.
