GolfWRX TaylorMade SLDR Driver Fitting Sessions Review and Recaps

[Will Par]

My anticipation level just went up several notches after seeing those pictures. I remember seeing Banker ripping ball after ball down the range with that club. I think he would still be there hitting it if it hadn't started getting dark. Good times. Good memories.

[Hairpie]

Now I'm getting pumped....I figure us CA boys should get ours quick as its not that far from Carlsbad....Now I just pray they don't ship UPS...Looks like they're sending you my glove size Banker...

OK SLDR participants, here's a sneak peak at some of the builds straight from the TaylorMade Tour Dept (perhaps the coolest door in golf). The birds are almost away!

As if I am going to think about anything else this week. I really hope mine gets here by Saturday.

Thanks again WRX and TM!

Sorry if this was posted earlier but I did not see it. Price Point for the TP and non TP?

[mjmurphy]

$399 for the non TP and TP is $499.

That's very high considering they released so many drivers this year and sales are down.

[chiguy]

Thanks for the pics Rob. Very cool!

i dunno, $399 seems like the standard for a driver now days and extra $100 for a TS 6.3 seems like a great deal (assuming its true). If its a good product i'm sure it will sell and if it sucks, it won't.

But its TM so give a few months and i'm sure there will be a price discount

[Rebel420]

Reasonable price for getting the newest. If you add up all the $ lost buying and selling how much equipment over a year, its just a drop in the bucket. With the Speeder as stock shaft, I'd be willing to go $599 for the TP model.

Then again with me being on vacation starting This Friday, if I could have a 9.5*, TP X in my hands by then.... Hey! Any of y'all who got the fitting last week ready to sell? Lol

[mjmurphy]

Does anyone know is the ts 6.3 will come with oem graphics?

[/quote]

Pretty sure it will continue to be shaft OEM graphics unless they build it on the tour van for the pros then it's TM graphics.

[Rebel420]

I think the TM graphics do generally look better than OEM. They always fit the theme of the club line better. Downside is harder to "flip them" when you want to try something new.

[Doc Mcstuffins]

If they are Fuji 6.3TS graphics (which do match the blue paint on the head) I'm all in.

[rbilramz]

Hey fellow testers, anyone I know when the clubs are shipping?

[Mizgoodie]

Iam guessing today, or Thursday after seeing the build pics...... But that's just me guessing so it really means nothing

whoever that is getting the Tour AD, let me know how that matches up in the head. I have one with a R1 tip that i'm thinking about selling but might keep for the SLDR

Sweet mother of Hayzoos!!

Keep your eyes off my damn driver!
