TaylorMade R9 MAX driver
"The TaylorMade R9 MAX driver offers eight positions, and changing from one position to another is easy and takes only a matter of seconds," said Dr. Benoit Vincent, TaylorMade's chief technical officer. "When changing, it's important to recognize that as the face angle closes, the loft increases; and as the face angle opens, the loft decreases." Thus the R9 driver is engineered to promote trajectories that are 1) increasingly higher, long-carrying and which move from right-to-left; 2) increasingly lower, more controllable and which move from left-to-right; or 3) which are neutral, with relatively straight flight and at mid-level height.

"Every golfer, whether a tour pro or high-handicapper, knows that the position of the face angle at address is critical to confidence," said Harry Arnett, TaylorMade's senior category director of equipment. "Strong players prone to hooks much prefer looking at a square or slightly open face at address, while slicers find reassurance in seeing a closed face. FCT gives the golfer the ability to adjust the face to the position that they like best, which is a huge advantage."
