The TaylorMade r7 Quad 425cc TP driver features Movable Weight Technology that includes specific elements targeted at highly skilled players. The 28 grams of movable weight divided between two widely spaced TaylorMade Launch Control (TLC) ports, allowing for a lateral shift in CG position of up to 5 millimetres. Robot testing indicates that the r7 Quad 425cc TP delivers a lateral trajectory change of up to 13 yards when the TLC cartridges are configured to promote the maximum amount of either draw or fade. Likewise, players can configure the TLC cartridges to increase or decrease their spin-rate to promote changes in the height of their tee shots, either higher or lower. After a trajectory is chosen, the 425 TP makes it easier to achieve that trajectory over and over, thanks in part to the club's exceptionally high MOI and its large 425cc head.The TaylorMade r7 Quad 425cc TP driver promotes a wider change in trajectory in terms of both height and lateral movement; it's more forgiving; and visually it encourages greater confidence. In addition, the TaylorMade r7 Quad 425cc TP is designed with a slightly open face angle, to meet the demands of tour players. The r7 Quad 425 TP has TaylorMade's Ultra-Thin Wall (UTW) technology, a casting process that allows the clubhead walls to be just 0.6mm thick - that's fully 40% thinner than the walls of most competitive drivers and 25% thinner than the walls of the original r7 Quad and r7 Quad TP. The weight saved by the r7 Quad 425 TP's drastically thinner walls contributes to the discretionary weight necessary to incorporate 28 grams of movable weight into the 425cc clubhead.The TaylorMade r7 Quad 425 TP driver is built using Pull-Face Construction, wherein the clubface is made separately from the clubhead. That allows TaylorMade to cold-roll the clubface out of exceptionally strong titanium, resulting in an exceedingly fast, flexible and light clubface that bumps up against the USGA's limit for spring-like effect. The r7 Quad 425 TP also features TaylorMade's groundbreaking Inverted Cone Technology (ICT). The Inverted Cone, which is milled directly onto the inner side of the clubface, increases the size of a club's COR Zone, which is the portion of the clubface that delivers high COR; more than .800. What that means is that ICT allows a larger area of the face to deliver consistently higher ball velocity, resulting in consistently longer drives. An added advantage of ICT is that the exceptionally light clubface allows the saved weight to be put to use as discretionary weight. The r7 Quad 425 TP is equipped with the new TaylorMade RE•AX TP graphite shaft featuring Fujikura's proprietary ROMBAX technology. TP Stands for Tour Preferred and TaylorMade's Tour Preferred line of golf equipment is designed with, and for, the finest players in the world, and meets a tour pro's requirements for what a golf club should look, feel and perform like. Tour Preferred clubs are identical to the clubs that TaylorMade makes for tour pros.
For those who don't like the 460cc heads, the TaylorMade R7 425 driver is for you. As it name suggests, the 425cc head has a more compact look to it at address and this gives a good sound and feel at impact. The weights in the back of the head are movable, but are closer together and lower down than in the R5 Dual TP, TaylorMade's other driver with 2 moveable weights. Playing around with the weights does give the desired flight, but the head seemed a little heavier than other drivers in the market, which we think is a general TaylorMade thing. The design of the head and sole is excellent and the sole in particular gives it a very aggessive look. The TP version has a much better quality shaft than the standard version and the face is a little more open, which will appeal to better players.
