WE TESTED: 9°, 10.5° with Matrix Ozik XCon 6 graphite shaft
KEY TECHNOLOGIES: The deep-faced Taylormade RocketBallz Tour Driver
features the company’s adjustable “Flight Control Technology” (FCT) hosel, which enables you to increase or decrease loft by 1.5° and to tweak face angle (3° closed to 3° open). Comes standard with a 55-gram shaft at 45.75”.

OUR TESTERS SAY: Among the higher-rated drivers. It’s a very good performer with strong, repeatable results.

PROS
DISTANCE: Many feel it’s as long or longer than their own Taylormade RocketBallz Tour Driver ; a few say it produces bigger drives than R11.
ACCURACY/FORGIVENESS: Easy to hit consistently well and find the fairway; a large sweet zone produces solid shots, even when the ball misses the center of the clubface.
FEEL: The ball compresses and jumps off the face quickly; a relatively light sensation through impact with few bad vibrations.
PLAYABILITY: A higher-than-average launch creates plenty of carry; natural shape seems to be a slight draw.
LOOK: White crown and black clubface are pleasing to most testers and easy to align on the tee.

CONS
Some testers find the white crown distracting; the high-pitched impact sound isn’t everyone’s favorite.
