TaylorMade RocketBallz Golf Drivers
Launched in 2012, the TaylorMade RocketBallz Driver (RBZ) is designed for golfers seeking distance. Its large clubface provides forgiveness on off-center hits, while Flight Control Technology allows for easy loft and face angle adjustments. Though surpassed by newer models, the RocketBallz RBZ remains a solid choice for those wanting a forgiving driver.
Key features include:
| Large Face | Delivers more consistent distance, even on off-center hits, making it easier for golfers to find the fairway. |
| Inverted Cone Technology | Incorporated into the back of the RBZ driver face, it increases the sweet spot and ball speeds across a larger portion of the face. |
| Flight Control Technology | Allows you to easily adjust loft (±1.5 degrees) and face angle (±3 degrees). |
| Tour Model | In addition to the Driver, TaylorMade also offers the RBZ Tour model, which is geared towards advanced players and has adjustability features. |
| Colors | White crown and black face makes alignment easy and eliminates glare on top. |
Top Competitors
Both released around 2012, the Callaway RAZR Fit and the Titleist 910D2 Drivers offer a slightly different focus. The RAZR Fit offers a similar focus on distance with a large, titanium clubface designed for high ball speeds. The key differentiating factor is its adjustability. The Callaway RAZR Fit features a hosel sleeve that allows golfers to fine-tune loft and lie angle to optimize launch conditions for their swing. The Titleist 910D2 Driver focuses on a combination of distance and forgiveness. The Titleist 910D2 features a larger, more forgiving clubface design compared to previous Titleist models. It also incorporates a titanium face designed for high ball speeds. This combination aims to deliver long distances for a wider range of golfers.
Progression of the RocketBallz driver:
TaylorMade introduced the original RocketBallz (RBZ) and RocketBallz Tour drivers in 2012 as a stand-alone series. The RBZ line offered speed, adjustability, and two unique clubhead options designed to appeal to a wide range of players. Before the RBZ, TaylorMade featured clubs like the R11 Driver (2011) and the Burner Superfast 2.0 Driver (2011).
| 👍 Pros |
|---|
| Really gives me the confidence I need. I hit it long and straight. |
| I still game an RBZ driver. I love the white head. Looks great behind the ball. |
| I've used this model for my 5 hybrid and it’s the best club in my bag. Freaking rocket. |
| 👎 Cons |
|---|
| Fast off the face but not forgiving compared to the latest drivers with twist face or similar tech. |
| They do lose their pop but usually only if the club has been beat up or damaged. |
| Actually a terrible club, I can't find the fairway whatsoever. |
If you’re looking for a pre-owned driver that packs a punch, the TaylorMade RocketBallz Driver is a solid option, especially for those on a budget. While not the latest technology, you can really bomb impressive distance with this driver. You won't find the same level of forgiveness or adjustability you might get with a newer driver, and the sweet spot can be a bit on the smaller side, but they're a great option for beginners or those looking for a reliable backup driver.
