Callaway Diablo Neutral Fairway Wood (Right-handed, 15 Degree, Graphite, Regular)


$69.99


The Big Bertha Diablo Fairway Woods are just plain mean. They have attitude and they’ll let more golfers feel like they can bring every course to its knees. Edge Technology takes advantage of weight placement within an all-stainless steel clubhead. By strategically shaping the head, the engineers can achieve optimal performance characteristics that produce Draw and Neutral options that golfers can choose to match with their swing type and shot shape. It also helps golfers release the club at impact with full power, especially when swinging aggressively. VFT Technology was incorporated to boost ball speeds and raise forgiveness levels for higher confidence.

Classic Club: TaylorMade R9 Fairway Wood

Judging from any industry, the good quality products would never join the bargains. They are always positioned in a high price, and our customers also think that price is reasonable. That’s just the glamour attraction, do you agree with me?

Today our Discount Golf Clubs For Sale will take you to aftertaste the classic club, Taylor Made R9 fairway wood.

The Taylor Made R9 fairway wood offers a new degree of customization, in the Flight Control Technology that allows golfers to literally set up their club to meet any course or swing demand in just seconds.

The Taylor Made R9 fairway wood is accomplished by rotating the metallic sleeve positioned over the tip of the shaft. The sleeve can be rotated into eight different positions, each of which has a different loft, lie and face angle. All a golfer has to do is to loosen the FTC bolt with the provided wrench, shift the shaft to the desired position, and then tighten the screw again. The total side-to-side trajectory change can be up to 35 yards, a significant window that allows players to hit their targets more accurately.

The Taylor Made R9 fairway wood comes standard with Fujikura Motore shafts that have been developed with H.I.T. (High Inertia Tip) technology. Fujikura claims its new H.I.T. technology delivers more power to the ball by keeping more energy in the tip of the golf shaft. The TP model comes with a slightly upgraded Fujikura Motore F1 shaft.

TaylorMade says the adjustability of the Taylor Made R9 fairway wood can create up to 36 yards of side-to-side trajectory change. The company also says that the center of gravity in the R9 fairway woods is 50% lower than in the r7 fairways. That should make it easier to hit high-flying shots that land softly

The head design has been dubbed “new classic” by TaylorMade due to its successful combination of both modern and classic head shapes. It looks like Taylormade has outdone themselves again. If nothing else they should win the award for golf club brand with the most acronyms and nicknames!

The crown is a dark shiny black with nothing but a small TaylorMade logo as an alignment aid. This is definitely a return to the classic look for TaylorMade as the crowns on their 2008 Burner line had more graphics and lines on them than a set of high rise blueprints.

Hey! Guys! Don’t you think it’s amazing!

About the Author

What are the standard degrees of loft for drivers and fairway woods?

I’ve just taken up golf. I’m confused by the degrees of loft on the drivers and woods I have. Can some 3woods have the same loft as a 5wood? My mate has a utility club which has the same loft as my 5wood?
Thanks, for the ‘good luck’ wishes, Rebate, I bloody need it!! LOL

Traditionally, a driver (or 1-wood) has had very low loft, 8-11 degrees. More recently, research has shown that modern golf balls fly further with a higher loft, and 12 degrees has become more widely available (though 10.5 degrees is still the nearest thing to “standard”). Some slow swingers have even moved to 13-15 degree drivers.

Traditionally a 3-wood is 15 degrees or thereabouts, slightly lower on a “strong 3″ or “3+”. Therefore some people with higher-lofted drivers now tend to play a 4-wood (about 17 deg) instead. 5-woods tend to be around 18* or 19*. Then 7-woods can be from 20* to 23* (I don’t know where that leaves 6-woods, but then I’ve never seen one!). I have heard of 9 and even 11-woods, but that’s getting a bit silly!

Hybrids are a different beast altogether. They have smaller heads and shorter shafts, and the lowest loft typically available is about 16* – almost what was once known as a “driving iron” – and they range right up to 30*+, though most golfers have one or two in the range 18-25 degrees.
