Interestingly, the buzz surrounding the TaylorMade SLDR Driver has come with plenty of heckles from the peanut gallery. It seems like the TaylorMade's 8th driver of 2013.
The SLDR comes in 3 different loft options: 9.5° 10.5° and HL. The SLDR is so visually appealing it would serve just as well as a modern art piece in your living room. The silver/grey paint tone is simply gorgeous and a perfect contrast to the chrome button-back TaylorMade used to assist with alignment.
Honestly, my current driver is the TaylorMade RBZ driver for sale, so the switch to the SLDR should not have been a huge change if the nay-sayers were correct. However, after getting the SLDR dialed in correctly at the range and then taking it to the course, I doubt very much the RBZ will ever see the inside of my bag again. I can say that I am 100% sure that I believe the SLDR is 10 yards or so longer than my RBZ.
I'm by no means a big hitter but I certainly felt like one during the sessions on the range and then on the course. The ball absolutely explodes off the face and the higher ball flight you'll get from selecting an elevated loft takes nothing away from the distance. To this point, guys in my foursome were stunned when I showed them I had the loft set at 11°.
In the case of the TaylorMade SLDR Driver for sale [http://www.pfagraphics.co.uk/TaylorMade-SLDR-Driver-sale-588.html], Taylormade chose to move the Center of Gravity or the "CG" lower on the face to promote higher ball speed. Additionally, they moved the CG forward to reduce the spin. Finally, they discovered that most golfers benefit from increased loft so they made the loft more adjustable than taylormade r11s driver to allow for a more optimal loft than you might believe. In real terms this means a perfect recipe for more distance.
Looks aside the driver is a monster. When I held the club in my hand for the first time I felt more like a gawker. Loosen the screw move the shaft to the desired loft and lock the screw in place. There are a total of 12 positions with a range of plus-or-minus 1.5°. This is unlike anything I had ever seen in a driver before and it's the foundation for how TaylorMade was able to achieve the lower CG.
In my opinion, the SLDR is the best driver I've swung since picking the game back up four years ago and I have no plans on removing it from my bag.
