Best Taylormade Driver Head Ever

[rgk5]

Superfast 2.0 TP with the HD6 shaft,  Never liked the R7 Superquad

[thepunch_out]

R510 TP w/ Speeder 757 x-stiff shaft. Not even TaylorMade specific, just favorite driver ever.

I loved my 08 Tour Burner. Still have it and played it this past weekend. 

#1 selling driver of all time…at that point. Sold new for about 2years after release

[BagofToast]

Sim2 max followed by M3 440 or 430 whatever it was 

[mcputter]

R580XD TP. Of course, that was back when I could play a little.

[SnowmanShanks]

M5/M6 and it's not even close.

 

Followed by the Sim 2

 

And then likely the R580XD

 

The Stealth is LONG. But the shape is not for me. Some people love it. Too low spinning. Can't believe the face coating is legal. Grips the ball more than grooves.

Old school: r510tp, r7 quad

mid school: r9 super deep

new school: og sim

2007 Burner TP gets my vote. 

 

I put a lot of shaft testing into building the one I had.  It was my best driver ever.  Played it until it cracked where the face and crown meet.  RIP.

[Wayside]

XR-03 

 

In comparison to what was on the market at the time it was a frightening thing. It went so much further than my previous R360Ti.
 

Replaced it with a 510TP due to pesky rules, and that’s second favourite.

For me it's the Sim 2. I think TM was onto a revolutionary construction method for drivers with Sim 2. Currently have a 24g weight in my Sim 2 and it is still low spin and has to be pushing 5000 moi which for TM is a lot. 

 

Sound and looks are perfect. Love the driver so much I just bought a backup head.

I had the replacement, the XR-05 which was stupidly long when caught properly. However it was also stupidly wild if you didn't catch it, so think I swapped it for an Ignite+

 

For me TM's all time greatest Driver Head the R300, the small 300 Series head with the hotter face. I have one paired with a Grafalloy Prolite, and it was one of the most consistent drivers I ever hit, even more consistent than my 975D.

Oh, Ignite+? That was a downgrade! 
 

I had an R300 with 757 which I ‘borrowed’ from work for a period until someone with connections traded in an R300 Tour (holy grail!) with 757. Then it was the XR-03 until the 510TP. 
 

I recently discovered a Prolite 3.5 in my parents cupboard which was meant to go in the XR-03 in 2001. Been there for 21 years! Might have a PXG tip put on it and try it in my current driver for giggles.

R510TP w/ Speeder 757

[Therty]

I just put an OG Sim in my bag, let’s see if it can dethrone the SLDR 430….

[NZ315]

Anyone old enough to hit the 2007 Burner TP would agree this is the OG they should bring it back just change the colors make it look modern 

[Double Mocha Man]

Superfast TP from 2010.  50 guys used it on tour...

 

Butt ugly head.

R11 with an Attas t2.  Fairway finding bomber.  Wish to hell I still had it!

I've got the shaft if you can source a head. It was cut down to like 43" though.

[KGrinols]

The R1 was the coolest looking head, still to this day in my opinion.  But I'm eccentric so I fully expect to be in the minority here.

I have that weight, not sure I tried it. 20g is what I'm using.

Well, I've been putting the wrong name on my driver for a while now lol. That's my backup driver and the one I've hit the longest drives with. I got mine well used and the crown had some chips. Once I swapped out the shaft I got it with, with a grafalloy prolaunch blue supercharged, it could be a bomber. Every once in awhile I think of putting it back in the bag for a round or two 

 

[Boogs2]

My favorite was the Burner Superfast TP

[stimpmeterp]

Interesting to see a lack of answers including the M line (M1 - M6).  Those were darn good heads once dialed in.

[tagermo]

Burner TP 

[Double Mocha Man]

Here's the TaylorMade Superfast Burner TP that a lot of people are mentioning.  It came out a year before their driver heads went to white.

[boggyman]

M6/M5 Tour

Stealth

[even_steven]

My OG SIM 9* is (for me) unbeatable. Have never hit the driver better.

[WidespreadPanic]

R580 XD and ‘16 M2.
