As the players at next week's US Masters have discovered, fast greens magnify the faults in their putting strokes so it's vital that the address position is correct. Even the best players in the world get nervous as Augusta National week approaches but there are certain things they do to push the pressure away.
In the summer TM Japan announced their new R9 Supermax lineup, clubs that focused on max performance and distance. The R9 Supermax irons is for the average golfer looking for ease of use and distance performance.
Feel is subjective and some players might like the slightly more deadened feel especially those with aching joints and those who don't strike the sweet spot consistently. The foamed and plugged cavity of the R9 Supermax dampens vibrations well and off center hits don't rattle the hands. Miss hits also don't lose much in distance.
Unless you are really brave and full of confidence then to putt through the break to attack the hole may be a foolish game to play unless you don't fear the 10-footer back.
Great putters always look around the hole for small undulations and breaks because as the ball loses pace it will take more break - and it's even more pronounced when the greens get slick.
The taylormade R9 supermax is an automatic iron made to go straight and far. Attempts from me to draw the ball sometimes resulted in pulls, but that's probably just me. This iron is best with an easy swing as it simply wants to go straight. Lately, manufacturers have been sending me both steel and graphite demos to test.
Looking back from the flag to your ball is a great way to start reading the line of your putt correctly. Use the contours on the greens to your advantage and pick out the high point from which the ball drops toward the hole.
I'd recommend this iron to Taylormade fans who are still improving at golfing or those who want automatic style distance. It's reasonably good looking and provides enough confidence at address without looking huge.
