TaylorMade is clearly sticking by its guns when it comes to improving the Speed Pocket and it has every right. With the TaylorMade SLDR fairway wood, although you don't have the slider mechanism as seen on the driver, you do at least have the option to adjust loft 1.5-degree up or down to find your optimal launch condition. The SLDR 3-wood has already found it's way into the bag of Justin Rose and Jimmy Walker. The high-launch / low-spin situation is exactly why Taylormade included its Loft Sleeve Technology in the standard version this year and not just in the Tour version like in the past. To be able to hit the ball like a hybrid and with fairway wood distance is ideal. The most recent push from TaylorMade, as reflected in the Taylormade SLDR driver, is that a more forward and lower CG promotes lower spin and faster ball speeds. That same ideology has been applied to its little brother as well. The button-back at the back of the crown is another great move from TaylorMade in my book. It will make it clear to the television viewer that the Tour player, TaylorMade sponsored or not, is using the SLDR. It's also a smaller head size which I like too. SLDR 3-wood weighs in at 155cc, whereas the last non-Tour Preferred fairway that the brand launched was 175cc. That's a sizable difference but makes it look more like a 3-wood than a fat-headed driver. Anyone who has seen the previous models will instantly recognise the difference in the Speed Pocket within the SLDR fairway wood. Not only is it smaller and U-shaped, but the slot itself is now filled in with a polymer to prevent debris - a common complaint with prior versions. I'm a TaylorMade fan who is just going to kiss the SLDR fairway's clubhead and give it high praise across the board, well... you'd be right I am, and with very good reason.
