This year at the 2009 Tokyo Golf Show Taylormade’s booth was front and center with a long list of new products that should excite golfers on both side of the pond. The headliner was the new R9 Driver which was released in the USA in a different size of 420cc’s while the Japanese market has both the 420cc and an exclusive R9 MAX 460cc version. Yes the MAX 460 is USGA conforming. The R9 460cc driver features only one weight instead of 3 and we were told by Taylormade Japan design department that due to the increased size the additional weights would be unnecessary making the head way to heavy.
