In 2013 they tweaked the design a bit and added a Tour version, and it looks like they have another winner.

Welcome to the Rocketballz Stage 2

  1. The RBZ Stage 2 driver I tested was a 9.5 degree and it allows you to increase or decrease loft up to 1.5 degress at.5 degree intervals. The RBZ Stage 2 driver also allows you to choose a more upright lie setting where the loft can also be changed in the same fashion.
  2. Question: How does the loft adjustment work on the TaylorMade RBZ Black Driver? Answer: There is a 'click' dial just below the clubhead that indicates the loft angle. It starts at 10.5 degrees and moves in increments of 1.5 degrees. We suggest you take the club to the driving range and test which loft setting is best for your golf swing.

New to Taylormade in 2012 is the Rocketballz Driver. Just like last years R11. You can adjust almost everything on the driver to be better fitted to your s.

Loft Technology

The Rocketballz Stage 2 (RBZ2) has a number of features that make it very popular with golfers. But the one that makes it really stand apart is something called Loft Technology.

Loft Technology enables golfers to change the loft angle of the club. You use an included torque wrench to remove the head of the RocketBallz driver and re-attach it in any one of three settings to change the face angle and effective loft of the club.

How to Adjust the Loft Angle

It's rather simple to do. You simply loosen the loft screw in the club heel using the wrench, then turn the sleeve (which is marked with your loft degree choices) to line up to the arrow on the back of the hosel. Then tighten the screw using the included wrench and you're ready to go.

At TaylorMadeGolf.com, your can read reviews on the club by those who have purchased it, like this one: 'I got the 10.5 model and immediately adjusted it up high to make it 12 degrees. Adjustment was simple and quick.'

A few degrees may not seem like a big difference, but it can be when you're talking about hitting a golf ball. And for the millions of us who have trouble with a driver, having a few different options available within one driver can be a helpful option off the tee.

You can buy the RBZ2 in one of seven standard and five upright loft options to add ±1.5° to each of the available standard lofts: 9.5 (which can be adjusted up to 11° or down to 8°); 10.5° (which can be adjusted up to 12° or down to 9°); and HL 13° (which can be adjusted up to 14.5° or down to 11.5).

In a discussion with golfequipment.com, Tom Olsavsky, TaylorMade's senior director of product creation, said 'We're finding a big difference with Stage 2. We're getting higher launch, less spin, and more speed. That translates to more distance.'

The Stage 2 launches the ball about 1° higher and produces about 300-400 rpm less spin. Olsavsky further states that the improved center of gravity (CG) positioning helps make the RocketBallz Stage 2 anywhere from 7 to 10 yards longer than the original.

Other Features of the RBZ2

TaylorMade claims 80% of golfers are playing the wrong loft, hence the need for a club like the RBZ2. Swing consistency is a problem for many amateur golfers, especially with a driver. The RBZ2 has other features besides the loft technology that aim to help achieve that consistency. These include:

  • Expansive 4,100 square-millimeter clubface gives the golfer substantially more face area
  • Inverted Cone Technology milled into the inner side of the larger clubface expands the portion of the face that delivers high ball speed
  • Improved aerodynamics reduces drag over the head to promote faster clubhead speed
  • Thick-Thin crown provides lower and more-forward CG location, promoting faster ball speed, high launch, and low spin

Another new feature: the crown features a unique yellow-and-gray decal designed to make it easier to frame the ball opposite the center of the clubface, and easier to detect exactly how the clubhead is aimed to give you confidence that the face is aligned exactly the way you want it before you start your takeaway.

When golfers first see the head, they're admittedly skeptical. But the majority of reviews say that once they hit the club, it's not a problem at all.

The RBZ Stage 2 driver will also be available in a Tour model. Apart from a different stock shaft (Matrix 6Q3 or 7Q3 TP), the primary difference is the placement of weight. The standard model is designed with a slight draw bias, while the Tour model has a neutrally placed center of gravity.

But like any new club, you shouldn't make your purchase decision based solely on reviews. You need to go out, hit it, and see how it feels.

Taylormade revives the RBZ™ brand with the new RBZ Black.

In late 2011, Taylormade introduced the 1st generation RocketBallz™ woods. These were followed the next year by the RBZ Stage 2™, driver, fairway metal and hybird. Although the driver and hybrids were great, the real success was the fairway woods. These fairway woods were the first to feature Taylormade's Speed Pocket™ technology; a slot cut along the bottom of the clubhead, behind the face, to increase 'trampoline effect' on balls hit low on the face. Since most of us hit our fairway woods low, this technology was revolutionary.

The next rendering in the family was the Taylormade Jetspeed. The significance of the Jetspeed was that driver now included a Speed Pocket™ of it's own, bringing the performance enhancement that made Taylormade's fairway metals so extraordinarily superior to the driver. From there, several renderings of Taylormade drivers have included the Speed Pocket™ in their technological arsenal.

Today, this technology is available in all Taylormade drivers including the 2nd generation M1 and M2 drivers. Now, for 2018, Taylormade is introducing the Taylormade RBZ Black Driver, RBZ Black Fairway Metal, and RBZ Black Rescue Hybrid. These clubs are sure to be a hit for the golfing public in 2018.

The RBZ Black Driver has a full line of features, including an adjustable hosel for loft adjustments, and Taylormade's famed Speed Pocket™ for incredible increased ball speeds on balls struck on the lower portion of the face.

The RBZ Black Fairway and RBZ Black Rescue will fall right in line with the performance you'd expect from Taylormade. Long, forgiving, lightweight, easy to hit; these are the hallmarks of Taylormade's game improvement clubs over the past decades and continue to hold true in their 2018 product line. Taylormade has long been an industry leader in innovation, and that tradition continues.

Perhaps the very best feature of the new Taylormade RBZ Black product line isn't technological innovation, but rather, an fiscal innovation. The RBZ Black line comes in at an affordable price, at a time when many of Taylormade's competitors are raise their ask.
