subject: TaylorMade r7 CGB Max Fairway Help you Improve your Game [print this page] TaylorMade has announced its latest lineup of clubs, a game-improvement suite that includes driver, fairway woods and irons and carries the designation r7 CGB Max.
The "Max" (TaylorMade spells it all upper-case), the company says in a press release, stands for:
... maximum distance, maximum forgiveness, maximum performance, and the kind of maximum ease of use that most players wouldn't have dreamed possible.
They could have included "maximum price." Clarification: these clubs are not the highest-priced out there. But they are definitely in the premium end of the market.
The "CGB" stands for "center of gravity back," as in the center of gravity is positioned deep and to the rear in the respective clubheads. This is the typical tactic at this time for game-improvement and super-game improvement clubs. Moving the CG deep and rearward helps the golfer achieve a higher launch - to get the ball up in the air, in other words - and more carry distance.
The TaylorMade r7 CGB MAX fairway woods incorporate a variety of top-level technologies that make them the best game-improvement fairways that TaylorMade has ever created. They share the driver's triangular head shape and the exceedingly far-back CG location in relation to the face that this geometry makes possible. That CG location will prove especially valuable to the many players who have trouble getting fairway woods in the air, because it makes launching a 3-wood into the sky as easy as a 7-iron. Besides that, the heads feature a large, confidence-building shape with high MOI that makes them extremely stable and forgiving on miss-hits. The TaylorMade r7 CGB MAX fairway woods incorporate Movable Weight Technology and three weights, promoting up to 22 yards of trajectory change from side to side, which will help players dial in additional distance and control. Last but not least is SuperFast Technology in the form of an ultra-light graphite shaft that promotes added clubhead speed for increased distance.
The fairway woods will be available in 3-, 5- and 7-woods, both right and lefthanded, with an MSRP of $118.99 per club.
