The Longest Drive

摘要

Fairway shots will fly up to 17 yards farther off TaylorMade's new golf clubs, whose heads were designed to produce less spin and more loft. A 0.4-inch-deep slot on the bottom of the head allows the face to flex on impact, eliminating spin. Also, the steel on the bottom of the club is thicker than it is on the top. That lowers its center of gravity and increases the probability that golfers will strike the bottom of the ball, which adds lift.
