Taylor Made Golf SLDR-S Mini Driver
- List Price: $299.99
Product Description
SLDR's CG location is both low and forward, due in large part to the large, 20-gram sliding weight on the sole. That promotes a dramatic leap in distance.
Moving the CG forward in a driver is a monumental shift in metalwood thinking. For years it's been accepted that low and back was the ideal CG location for a driver. We've found this is not the best way to generate the most distance.
Long distance comes from combining of fast ball speed, high launch-angle and low spin-rate. We've discovered that moving the CG forward promotes more ball speed and less spin. To launch the ball on a high enough angle to maximize distance, we've discovered that most golfers benefit from increasing their loft, some by as much two or three degrees.
In addition to the low-forward CG benefits, the SLDR weight also represents a complete reinvention of movable weight, making it more effective and easier to use. Movable weight shifts the clubhead's CG horizontally toward either the heel, to promote a draw, or toward the toe, to promote a fade. SLDR's sliding weight allows you to shift the CG far enough to promote a side-to-side trajectory change of up to 30 yards.
