That, along with balancing the club to a slightly higher swing weight, allows the driver to promote faster swing speed for most golfers.Īs for its trajectory, the Loft Sleeve Technology, one of the main points shared with the R1, allows the player to control the flight of the RBZ Stage 2 by easily adjusting the loft, lie and face angle of the club head with 12 possible positions within the window of 1.5º loft adjustment. With the driver assembled with a longer, lighter (50-gram) Fujikura RocketFuel shaft, and with a light grip, the total club weight of the driver is under 300 grams. The RBZ Stage 2 is the second generation of RocketBallz, which was very successful last year, which has evolved with the centre of gravity lower and more forward, a more aerodynamic head shape, an expansive club face and a new shaft, which combined together promote more distance than the first RBZ driver.
On the other hand, we deduce that the RocketBallz Stage 2 is aimed at a wider range of players, from pros to high handicaps, who are looking for a plus in distance which is easy to get. The R1 offers longer distance with greater accuracy from the tee to pros and low handicap players, tuning the golf club to a maximum through its extraordinary adjustability.
This is a completely different driver, which shares some technologies, the white colour and the quality level of the R1, but which targets a different player profile. Ma– After having tasted the excellence of the new R1 TaylorMade Golf driver, what could we expect from its brother for the 2013 season, the RocketBallz Stage 2? Will it be the cheap version of the R1?Īfter testing it… it is obviously not.
