The new TaylorMade Tour Preferred CB Irons are created by plasma-welding a 8620 carbon steel cast body and a slightly firmer, forged, carbon steel face. This construction allowed TaylorMade to incorporate an undercut in the back of the club, which in turn let designers move more weight lower and deeper to increase forgiveness.
The TaylorMade Tour Preferred CB feature a forged face with a cast, undercut cavity, promoting a pure forged feel with the forgiveness of a traditional cavity back iron. It has a high Moment of Inertia to provide optimal distance control and forgiveness. The precision weighting port guarantees precise swingweights and optimal center of gravity locations from club to club.
At long last TaylorMade finally unveiled their R11 Irons. TaylorMades latest expansion to the overwhelmingly popular R11 line was to create an iron set that was engineered for players who appreciate the shape and refinement of a tour-grade iron but need the help of technology to launch the ball high, straight, and long with less effort, regardless of handicap. Already tested as a forgiving and easy to hit club. The R11 irons are definitely not blades or a set of tour only clubs.
TheTaylorMade R11 features a dual head design made for both performance and control. the 3-5 irons feature a high repulsion face with hollow cavity structure for increased distance. The 6-Wedge feature a more compact undercut pocket cavity with a focus on feel, control and accuracy. The R11 features variable face thickness. Starting with 2.0mm thick face in the long irons to 2.3mm in the mid irons and 2.5mm in the short irons for enhanced feel.
One detail that can also vary the final quality and swing R11 Irons is the flexibility it can have the rod, for beginners it is recommended to be less flexible as possible. More and more are available custom golf clubs; there are different suits for men and women, especially for lefties, of different weight and size, for children, etc.
