The TaylorMade r7 460 driver is the largest of the r7's and measures 460cc, the largest volume allowed by the USGA. This exceptionally large head helps to make it extraordinarily forgiving and extraordinarily easy to launch. In fact, the 460 delivers the highest MOI of any driver that TaylorMade has ever created. The TaylorMade r7 460 driver features Movable Weight Technology, which gives players the power to change the centre of gravity (CG) in order to promote different types of launch conditions and trajectories. The r7 460 is engineered with two TaylorMade Launch Control (TLC) ports and includes two movable TLC cartridges, a 14-gram and a 2-gram. While the 460's internal weighting characteristics give it a distinct draw bias, configuring the cartridges so that the 14-gram is in the toe port and the 2-gram is in the heel port shifts the CG toward the toe, counteracting the 460's inherent draw tendencies to promote a straight, or neutral, trajectory. Conversely, installing the 2-gram cartridge in the toe port and the 14-gram in the heel port shifts the CG toward the heel, which supplements the 460's internal draw tendencies, promoting a large draw. Robot testing indicates that the draw bias created by the 2-gram/toe and 14-gram/heel configuration promotes 15 yards from right to left for most players compared to the 14-gram/toe and 2-gram/heel configuration.

The combination of the TaylorMade r7 460's ultra-large clubhead and Movable Weight Technology was made possible by TaylorMade's new Ultra-Thin Wall (UTW) technology, a casting process that allows the clubhead walls to be just 0.6mm thick, which is fully 40% thinner than the walls of most competitive drivers and 25% thinner than the walls of the original r7 quad. The 10 grams saved by the 460's drastically thinner walls contributes to the discretionary weight necessary to allow for Movable Weight Technology in the 460cc clubhead. It also features a small metallic swing weight plug permanently installed at the bottom-rear of the clubhead, between the TLC ports. By using plugs with differing weights, TaylorMade engineers can simply and easily adjust the club's swing weight. Positioning the plug in the back of the clubhead allows for a lower and deeper centre of gravity. The r7 460's UTW construction, combined with the swing weight plug, gives it a CG that's lower and deeper than TaylorMade's r5 Dual drivers. That difference increases the 460 user's opportunity to activate the club's vertical-gear effect, which promotes a higher launch angle and lower spin-rate, elements that encourage greater distance.

Like all TaylorMade r7 and r5 drivers, the r7 460 is built via 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 460 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 the 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 TaylorMade r7 460 comes equipped with the new TaylorMade RE•AX shaft, which features a special new technology developed by Fujikura, maker of the No. 1 shaft on the PGA Tour.
