Which Ronbus Tenon Should You Buy? (R2 vs R3 vs R4)

Last updated: September 2026

R2 is the doubles Tenon. Code is RC3Q2082, not PRH.

QUICK ANSWER

Buy Ronbus Tenon R2 16mm at $149.99 with RC3Q2082 ($20 off $169.99) unless you already play hybrid or elongated. R4 is the hybrid. R3 is the 16.5-inch stick at the same $149.99 — heavier swing. Tenon R1 is $129.99 after the same code and a different outline. PRH will not work on Ronbus.
