• Improved Aerodynamics, Centre of Gravity Location and New Fujikura RocketFuel Shaft Promote More Distance.

January 16, 2013 – TaylorMade Golf Company, the No.1 driver brand in golf, has introduced RocketBallz Stage 2, a driver that combines a lower and more forward CG location, a more aerodynamic head shape and an expansive, 4,100 square millimetre club face to promote up to nine more yards for better players compared to the first generation RBZ driver.

Characterized by its unique crown graphic which enhances alignment, the RBZ Stage 2 driver also features TaylorMade’s Loft-Sleeve technology, which gives players the ability to easily tune loft and club face angle to fit their swing.

“It’s hard to imagine bringing a driver to market that out-performs the original RocketBallz driver,” said Todd Beach, Vice President of metalwoods R&D. “Making the head of the RBZ Stage 2 driver more aerodynamic while also making the clubface larger was a tremendous challenge and succeeding was critical to promoting performance that’s superior to the first generation RBZ driver.”

The combination of a longer, lighter (50-gram) Fujikura RocketFuel shaft and light grip enabled TaylorMade to keep RBZ Stage 2 under 300 grams of total club weight. That, along with balancing the club to a slightly higher swing weight, allows the RBZ Stage 2 driver to promote faster swing speed for most golfers. The lightweight characteristics of the shaft coupled with the RBZ Stage 2 driver’s mass properties work together to create a moderate draw bias.

Like the first-generation RBZ driver, the RBZ Stage 2 retains a large address footprint while incorporating a slightly deeper and larger face.

• Availability: Standard and TP models on 1st February 2013.
• RRP: RocketBallz Stage 2 standard, €329.
• RRP: RocketBallz Stage 2 TP, €429.
