personally, if i am looking for a new driver, i would consider new TM driver. For one, it is flexibility. I can changed shafts from one to another, while maintaining the same head. The other, MWT concept have ample amount variation for me to play with. Its giving the player many choice to choose from without frequent visit to custom fitting shop. All you need is a selection of shafts with sleeves and weights.

pricing is so unplanned these days...

i don't think the selling price of the R9 are simply determined by a clear pricing strategy that's based on demand and aging of the product.

In this case a foreign source of mine told me that a shipment of parallel imported R9 was headed to a neighboring country. the distributor learned about this and started the buy one get one promotion. The parallel importer than tried to bring it to Singapore and then a similar promotion was launch to counter the effect of lower pricing by the PI.

who is the PI...buy coffee lor.

but of course this is all hearsay and its tough being a distributor in a small market like Singapore.

You may want to try it at TM demo day. Next one at Toa Payoh driving range 23rd Jun 6.30pm.

Was at OCC TM demo day and noticed many didn't drive it well. I know some of them are frequent golfers with 10+HC. May be need time to get use to. Sound of Supertri isn't as nice as R7/R9 460.

I have tried at OCC last wed, i have to say the R9 forged irons with ns pro 950 stiff shaft was fantastic! More distance + great feeling + very straight + great looks + expensive as well!
