I played it forward and in draw bias. It launched a few degrees higher for me with 2600 spin.With the difference in spin being about 250-400 rpm I can't for the life of me figure out why anyone would play the weight forward.
I hit this last night. 12* up to 13.5 weights back and center, Fuji Pro 60 stiff. It was good, but I didn't have my gamer with me to compare directly.
It did appear quite closed at address (ugh) and kept going left on me so it kind of killed whatever desire I had for it. I'll try again in a more direct comparison one of these days.
Interesting, and you have low spin?I launch my 14* D200 at about 9-10*. I need help to get the ball up and stay up due to severe delofting through the downswing.
Nope, just size (and thus the 430 being slightly more penal on mishits). Same spin profile.I tried the M1 430 9.5 with a fuji pro 60 shaft today. It was an interesting one for sure. It was about 10 yards longer than my current driver (G30) and the dispersion and forgiveness was quite impressive as well. The only thing I didnt like was the feel. It wasnt bad, but I like my G30 a little better in that department.
Is there a difference in feel between the 430 and 460 head?
Plus or minus. JB saw 400 difference. The fitter I went to saw almost 500 from one fitting he did but he said that's the most he's seen by a good amountSo TaylorMade is fairly committed to the difference from front to back being a whopping 300rpm of spin?
I can't imagine ever playing it anywhere but hammered back then. 300rpms will never be enough for me to throw away forgiveness (assuming there is some present).
I'd leave it in the back for sound alone.So TaylorMade is fairly committed to the difference from front to back being a whopping 300rpm of spin?

I agree. Sound is so much better with it all the way back. 300 to 400 rpm just isn't going to do anything much to the ball flight to give up the MOII'd leave it in the back for sound alone.

Usually mid spin but it depends on the head.Interesting, and you have low spin?
Usually mid spin but it depends on the head.

The first driver I ever owned was the Ti Burner Bubble when I was in high school. After that I didn't own another TM driver until the R1. Like you it just didn't perform for me. Tried the SLDR and it was even worse. The hype behind this one seemed like just another TM launch but after demoing it for 18 holes and seeing the results for myself I was instantly sold on this.
It's not going to work for everyone, as some have already seen, and that's fine. Thankfully, though, Taylormade has a solid offering once again in the driver category and I think this will be HUGE for them as they try to rebound as a company.
