Taylormade announced their new 2015 R15 lineup today here in Tokyo. The mid December release includes 4 black IP soles with white crowns in the form of a high launch shallower face low spin 460 driver, a mid launch deeper face low spin 430 driver, a fairway wood and a rescue. Stock shafts will be made by Mitsubishi Rayon and all top end Japan market aftermarket shafts are also available for custom order directly from TM Japan. The drivers feature a new 25g adjustable slider which is split into two weights for more versatility. The adjustable sleeve will allow for 12 positions with a 2 degree range of adjustability. The fairway wood uses one adjustable 22g weight and also has 12 positions and a 2* range of adjustability. The Rescue has no slider weight but does feature the speed slot with a low forward design and 12 positions with 1.5* of adjustability.
This blog post is so we can get the announcement out quickly to all those who are interested in the R15 launch. We’ll continue updating specs and features through social media including our forum and facebook.
Are the japanese models any different from the future US model? perhaps the color?

Might as well leave the tech speak in Japanese for all the good it’ll do.

Is this an April fools joke? Mateo Miller
When will they start making drivers amd rescues not 10 upright?
If it’s no different from US spec models what is the point?
