TaylorMade r7 Quad Mini Driver 13.5° Right Hand Regular - Adjustable Quad Weights, Infinity Carbon Crown

The TaylorMade R7 Quad Mini Driver 13.5° (right-hand, regular flex) is a compact, adjustable mini driver designed to blend higher launch, tunable spin and shot-shape control for tee and fairway play.

Drawing inspiration from one of TaylorMade’s most celebrated designs, the R7 Quad Mini Driver updates classic elements with modern materials and adjustable technology. The head’s compact footprint and quartet of movable weights let you dial launch and curvature, while the Infinity Carbon Crown and Speed Pocket help optimize mass distribution and ball speed. It’s built to be versatile off the tee or from the turf when a fuller driver is too much club.

How does the quad weighting system change ball flight?

The four-weight setup (two 13g and two 4g weights) gives you precise control over center of gravity and spin. Sliding heavier weights forward produces a lower-spinning, more penetrating trajectory, while moving mass rearward raises launch and forgiveness. You can also create left- or right-bias shot shapes by offsetting weights side-to-side.

• Forward CG: lower spin, stronger ball speed, roll potential
• Rear CG: higher launch, added forgiveness and easier turf interaction
• Side weighting: tune draw or fade bias for preferred shot shape
• Additional weights available for wider adjustability

What materials and tech improve feel and performance?

TaylorMade combines a satin Infinity Carbon Crown with a tuned face and Speed Pocket to save weight and preserve ball speed across the face. Twist Face technology helps correct mis-hits by modifying face curvature, and the Speed Pocket aids ball speed and low-face launch. The included Speeder MD shaft is engineered to reduce spin and maintain stability without adding mass.

• Infinity Carbon Crown: lightweight, lowers center of gravity
• Twist Face: face geometry reduces side spin on off-center strikes
• Speed Pocket: improves speed and launch on low-face hits
• Speeder MD shaft: tuned for lower spin and consistent feel

When should I choose a 13.5° mini driver versus a full driver or fairway wood?

A 13.5° mini driver is ideal when you want more control and a shallower swing than a full driver, yet more forgiveness and distance potential than a long iron. It excels on tighter tee boxes, windy conditions, and long par-3s or par-4s where accuracy and a mid-high launch are preferred. It also performs well off the turf when a traditional driver is impractical.

• Tight tee boxes and narrow fairways where control matters
• Windy days when a penetrating flight is beneficial
• Long par-3s and approach shots from the deck
• When a lower-spin option complements your bag’s distance profile

How easy is it to set up and adjust the R7 Quad Mini Driver?

Adjustments are straightforward: remove and reposition any of the four weights to alter CG and shot shape. The head’s settings let golfers experiment with forward or rearward bias and left/right bias without complex tools. For best results, make one change at a time and hit a few shots to feel the difference.

• Four movable weights allow simple on-course tuning
• Change one weight at a time to isolate effects
• Additional weights are purchasable for fine-grained setup
• Fits standard hosel and shaft setup for straightforward installation

Who is this for? The TaylorMade R7 Quad Mini Driver 13.5° (right-hand, regular flex) suits golfers seeking a compact alternative to a full driver—players who want a controllable trajectory, adjustable spin and shot-shape options, and a forgiving profile from both tee and fairway. It’s particularly well matched to mid-handicappers and better players who value tunability and a lower-spin, stable shaft without sacrificing playability.
