Stick with th R5tp if you've been hitting it that well for that long. What was that combo, like $800 retail or some crap when it came out? I've hit a lot of drivers and the TP's are different. I swear they have like a sweet spot inside the sweet spot... like the sweetest spot. They just sound different when hit absolutely dead on flush and the distances I've gotten are ridiculous. Last one I really caught was a few weeks ago. 496yd. par 5 with 155 left in. Actually uphill to a plateau where it flattens out. I don't know how accurate the teebox yardage is but that comes out to about 340. I know the 2 guys I played with talked about it for the rest of the round.  |
I couldn't agree more, I had the orignal R7 TP for awhile and it felt great but I wasn't getting any distance out of it. I sold that and bought the R5 TP, your right the combo I have originally retailed for $699 or $799-ridiculous. Anyway I have never hit a driver more consistent or long. I have it set up neutral and can count on a 5-10yd fade EVERY time. I love it....can find them brand new for $165 or used on GG for $99-its a steal.
