Some highlights have been a drive over the green on a 290 yard up hill par 4, I also drove the green on a 305 yard par 4 (although I 3 putted for par, standard SG). In fact I think it may be getting even better. Those 4 rounds and 10 range sessions are now up and I’m happy to tell you all its as good as when I first took it out. I wanted to get home and write the review straight away, but once I’d calmed down I realised that it must of been a fluke! I wanted to give it a good 4/5 rounds and a few range sessions before coming to any final conclusions. The rest of the round was exactly the same, even off the deck I found it very easy to get the ball up in the air and the distance was huge.

However when I got to my ball in the middle of the fairway (which certainly didn’t happen with my driver) I worked out the distances and I’d crashed it 280 yards! I honestly couldn’t believe it. The launch was driver-like but when I was stood on the tee admiring the shot it looked like it hadn’t travelled as far as I’d been expecting as it seemed to go a lot higher. The ‘Speed Pocket’ really did give the face a trampoline affect and the ball absolutely flew off the face. This club was definitely made for golfers like me. It wasn’t! My first strike was one of the best I’d ever hit. The face is quite a bit deeper than the other 3-woods I was looking at, which is said to make it a little more forgiving and the little gadget in the base of the club, the ‘Speed Pocket’ makes the club look like its been made for some serious distance. The contrast between the white crown and dark grey face definitely helped with alignment. The white crown with green and grey detail looked awesome at address and I was filled with confidence when stood over the ball. I had my new club in the bag ready and raring to go. The last few times I’ve been teeing it up with my 3-iron as I had no confidence with my driver, but that day it was a different story. So my first hit with this beast was on the 3rd hole par 5, 545yds, out of bounds left and right.
#Taylormade rbz driver review 2013 pro
I know this wasn’t ideal and it definitely wasn’t planned but I bought it off the shelf and took it straight onto the course as I was so desperate to get rid of my driver (the pro shop had it on offer!). My research found the TaylorMade RBZ was exactly what I was after…

So with this in mind I went back and did my homework on the best ‘replacement driver’ 3-wood. Apparently a 3-wood should be easier to control off the tee and it obviously gives you another option off the deck on those long par 5’s. I had a chat with my coach and he said look at getting a good 3-wood. So with my frustration growing with every tee shot, I decided enough was enough. I can’t actually remember the last time I hit it off the tee and it felt ok. My relationship with my Ping G15 has been up and down but the last 2 months have been a nightmare. I was having real trouble trying to tame my driver. I want to give you a bit of a background behind why I decided to purchase this stick.

This is my first review as SecretGolferUK and what a club to start with!
