The 10 grams saved by the 460’s drastically thinner walls contributes to the discretionary weight necessary to allow for Movable Weight Technology in the 460cc clubhead. The combination of the r7 460’s ultra-large clubhead and Movable Weight Technology was made possible by TaylorMade’s new Ultra-Thin Wall (UTW) technology, a casting process that allows the clubhead walls to be just 0.6mm thick, which is fully 40% thinner than the walls of most competitive drivers and 25% thinner than the walls of the original r7 quad. Robot testing indicates that the draw bias created by the 2-gram/toe and 14-gram/heel configuration promotes 15 yards from right to left for most players compared to the 14-gram/toe and 2-gram/heel configuration. Conversely, installing the 2-gram cartridge in the toe port and the 14-gram in the heel port shifts the CG toward the heel, which supplements the 460’s internal draw tendencies, promoting a large draw. While the 460’s internal weighting characteristics give it a distinct draw bias, configuring the cartridges so that the 14-gram is in the toe port and the 2-gram is in the heel port shifts the CG toward the toe, counteracting the 460’s inherent draw tendencies to promote a straight, or neutral, trajectory. The r7 460 is engineered with two TaylorMade Launch Control (TLC) ports and includes two movable TLC cartridges, a 14-gram and a 2-gram. Like all other members of TaylorMade’s r7 driver family, the 460 features Movable Weight Technology, which gives players the power to change the center of gravity (CG) in order to promote different types of launch conditions and trajectories. In fact, the 460 delivers the highest MOI of any driver that TaylorMade has ever created. This exceptionally large head helps to make it extraordinarily forgiving and extraordinarily easy to launch. The largest of the r7’s, the r7 460 measures 460cc, the largest volume allowed by the USGA.
