Taylor Made RocketBallz Fairway Wood Description
Funny toy-like name aside, the Taylor Made RocketBallz Fairway Wood is one of Taylor Made’s most high-powered performance clubs out there.
The story behind the “RocketBallz” name is actually based off what TMAG tour staffer Dustin Johnson had to say about the prototype. He said that the club was “like a rocket,” and this description was used by Taylor Made engineers to come up with the RocketBallz name. The name is even further bolstered by a legal claim from Taylor Made that the RocketBallz club can increase shots by up to 17 yards.
It is, however, the technology behind this particular line of Taylor Made fairway wood clubs that gives its extra power and speed.
The technology starts with the very design of the club itself. The cavity carved into the sole, just behind the face, adds a significantly amount of flexibility for both the face and sole of the club. This effectively increases the speed of the ball upon impact. Another design plus is the presence of a weight plug just behind the cavity. This moves the Taylor Made RocketBallz Fairway Wood’s center of gravity forward instead of backward – aligning it to where golfers actually hit the ball on the fairway. Even the color of the crown and the clubface are taken into consideration here. The white crown and black clubface makes it easier for the golfer to align his or her shots; improving the golfer’s accuracy and giving him or her more confidence with each individual shot.
To top it all off, the Taylor Made RocketBallz Fairway Wood club has Flight Control Technology (FCT) integrated into it. FCT allows golfers to painlessly adjust the loft, the lie and face angles; giving them much-needed flexibility to effectively adapt to a variety of launch conditions.
If you are looking for a fairway club set that is easy to use but allows for a sufficient amount of flexibility, then the Taylor Made RocketBallz Fairway Wood might just be what you’re looking for.
