TaylorMade Golf launches JetSpeed range
TaylorMade announces the launch of its new line of metalwoods that feature Speed Pocket technology
TaylorMade has announced the release of a breakthrough line of metalwoods that includes the company's first driver to feature Speed Pocket technology.
The Jetspeed driver, fairway woods and rescue clubs will utilise a low-forward centre of gravity and light overall weight to promote faster swing and clubhead speed for more distance.
"With our SLDR and JetSpeed products, we're giving golfers of all types the opportunity to increase their launch angle and reduce their spin-rate, which ultimately leads to more distance," said TaylorMade Executive Vice President Sean Toulon.
Research suggests 72% of all golf shots are hit below the centre of face, so the JetSpeed driver is designed to minimise the ill effects of shots struck below the centre of the clubface.
"JetSpeed's Speed Pocket is engineered to dramatically reduce that added spin to promote more distance on that very common type of mis-hit," said TaylorMade Senior Director of Metalwood Creation Brian Bazzel.
The Jetspeed Fairway Woods and Rescues feature a low-profile head design that improves the ability to make contact with the clubface below the centre of the ball, which makes it easier to launch the ball into the air.
The JetSpeed driver is available in three lofts (9.5,10.5 and 13 degrees) and has an RRP of £249.
