TAYLORMADE
R15 DRIVER
■ TaylorMade doubles down
on its revolutionary SLDR
technology by adding a sec-
ond moveable weight on the
Front Track System that per-
forms like a speed pocket,
which reduces spin and in-
creases the size of the sweet
spot, both contributing to
greater distance. These
weights also help control ball
flight. Slide the weights to
the center for maximum dis-
tance. Slide to the heel for
maximum draw or to the toe
for maximum fade. Or split
them apart to achieve maxi-
mum forgiveness.
NIKE
VAPOR SPEED
■ Looking for pure distance?
Then look no further than the
Nike Vapor Speed. Its large,
stable head is a nimble com-
bination of three technolo-
gies: a FlyBeam structure, a
compression channel, and a
NexCOR face that delivers a
high launch with less spin for
higher ball speed and more
distance. The Speed has
Nike's flex loft adjustability
that offers 15 launch options
with five lofts and three face
angles. The finishing touch is
its high-octane color scheme
that permeates the Nike line
of clubs and apparel.
CALLAWAY
XR
■ The XR is Callaway's
fastest titanium driver ever.
Company engineers achieved
this with the trifecta of an
aerodynamic crown, an R-
MOTO face, and a maximum-
loading stock shaft. The
advanced aerodynamic head
has a Speed Step Crown that
reduces wind drag, increasing
swing speed. The R-MOTO
face is lighter and thinner so
more weight can be placed
lower for greater forgiveness.
And the Project X LZ shaft has
"loading zone" technology
for greater energy transfer
during the downswing.
