r1 super tp driver $900

Recommended Posts

I'll wait. That Kiyoshi White shaft will eventually sell for well under $175 and the head for about $150 at the end of the year on Ebay. $325 for the combo Dec 2013. Hook a brotha up. :D

And how popular was this shaft at the beginning of 2012? Look at price now.

Or this for a VC 7.2
I love Ebay.

Didn't read the whole thread, but this isn't the first grossly over-priced driver they have put out. Wasn't there some R7 version that was like 8 bills or something? I just hope it doesn't catch on, because then every company will start jacking up prices.

clearly a shaft upgrade. TM doesn't choose how much oban charges for a shaft offering. If people are saying the shaft alone is MSRP of $800 then id say you're getting a deal. but getting fit and knowing if th shaft suits you would be a good idea as well. I'm sure we'll see a bunch of the white oban shafts on the BST come february.

Yeah, maybe. But isn't it funny how, in the past, there has been so much discussion about how TM puts their own graphics on aftermarket shafts and everyone has always said, "Well, TM is the top dog so they can dictate a little what the shaft companies have to agree to." Well, the only reason to put a hugely overpriced shaft in your driver is to pull down a wad of cash. Where is the TM influence on the shaft pricing now? None of that seems like a deal to me, but I won't be buying it anyway...so...

Wow! So the only difference is the shaft? The head is exactly the same? For $500 more, you would think they'd put a "Super TP" sticker on it.
[/quote]

from what i can tell it comes with a kiyoshi white, so when you go to get fitted just make sure that's not the shaft that works best for you
[/quote]

I got to hit it down in Naples. Its a heck of a shaft and looks amazing in the R1, very piercing ball flight. But i dont have $900 to blow and i doubt TM will be sending me one to try out. but a guy can hope right?

I'd say this will be for the Dr at the country club who needs to one up everyone. and one up them he shall

For fun pulled it up in our Special Order system at GG...Have to go to the R1 TP at $499 to get that shaft as an option, then a $450 upcharge on the shaft, so before tax...$949!!

So who here got orders in before the price was corrected?

If there weren't too many, I wouldn't be surprised if those orders were honored.

I'd love to see some guys here get a big discount on a pricey shaft.

I had one in my in basket but I decided not to pull the trigger only because I have no intentions of gaming the head.

What!? No credit for the TP shaft...just bills stacked on top of an already nice shaft? Wow, Tmag and others would sell even more if they quit doing this kind of thing, IMO of course.

The only way on earth this driver would be remotely worth it is if the head was a v2 head.

What a ridiculous upcharge for a shaft that can be bought outright for much less money.
