Review: TaylorMade ROCKETBALLZ Stage 2
DM: I much prefer this to R1. I really like the sound, I like the head shape better and it just feels like it’s fast and powerful. It wants to help you – it’s responsive. And although the crown is busy – too busy for my liking really – it is nothing like as off-putting as on the R1. I also found it much easier to use.
JW: I much preferred this to the R1. I don’t really like the graphics but they at least look like they might help you line up. It’s a driver you can quickly get to believe in.
SC: I struggle with white drivers – they don’t stay clean for a start! But it feels great and you don’t have to hit it hard to get good distance results.
SRP: £249
