Starting with 2.0mm thick face in the long irons to 2.3mm in the mid irons and 2.5mm in the short irons for enhanced feel. TaylorMade R9 Irons
Taylormade utilizes its inverted cone technology to expand the sweet area reducing overall loss on off center hits. The multifunctional sole is versatile and made to excel in any lie. The new R9 has traditional lofts with a 27.5* 5 iron and is considered between mid and compact size with less offset. The new grooves are USGA/R&A Conforming.
The R9 is available with either Nippon NS Pro 950GH or Dynamic Gold as standard shaft. Japanese spec lightweight Motore 60 graphite is also available as an upcharge.
