Taylormade R9 460 - What to look out for

Taylormade R9 460 - what should we be watching out for

Ok, as some of you who has been reading my blog, you would have known that I have a couple of R9 MAX and R9 460 on hand from my contacts from the Japanese Tour, since last week.

I was doing a random search on eBay and I saw a questionable R9 460 being listed, and may I say, for a surprisingly very cheap price. Anyway, I am not a person who likes to judge, but I just thought I'd like to share, what to look out for, if you are deciding to get a Pre-Released R9 460...a LEGIT one, that it. 

The best tell-tale sign is the paint. Taylormade uses a very special paint for the R9 460, and if you are someone who takes a closer look, it is not that difficult at all to tell if your driver is 100% legit.

1) The <460> should be painted in greyish/silver. NOT black, NOT white, period.

2) The <R> is in bright christmas red, NOT solid bloody red.

3) The <9> should be in shimmery white, NOT solid chalk white. You should be able to see some shimmery glitters on the white paint.

Its easier to tell the difference for the <460> paint and the <9> paint. The red paint on the <R> is harder to tell, but when you take a close look, it should be pretty obvious.

Alright guys, buy safe, always ask for more pictures at different angles or lighting environments if need be.
