Tour Issue Taylormade SLDR 3 Wood????

I have a Taylormade SLDR 3 wood with this serial number:

Is it tour issue? You can clearly see the "T" in the serial number which usually denotes a tour issue head.

Thanks.

I'm pretty sure that the Taylormade tour issue heads have a serial number that starts with a "T". I could be wrong though.

They used to start with a T, but not anymore. It's been a few years since that was the case.

Yeah, I think that the SLDR tour issue driver heads have a serial number that starts with a "T". Here is one example: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Very-Nice-Tour-Issue-Taylor-Made-SLDR-460-9-5-Driver-Head-Toe-Screw-TDBXXXX/372638431796?hash=item56c2fb3a34:g:z-8AAOSwI-BWQVfn

They have a + where the hosel meets the fitting to designate CT testing

Hmm, interesting. Wonder how you are supposed to identify tour issue SLDR fairway woods?

Only the early sldr drivers had the t serial. Fairways are tricky unless its a model not made for retail. Some may have a testing dot but I don't recall the t.I. sldr fairway looking cosmetically different than retail. Jet speed did with the full face scoring lines. The tour issued may start with certain number or letter, I'm not sure what it was for sldr fairways.

The other strange thing is that it's probably longer than any other 3 wood I have previously used. Tour issue heads are usually very close to the CT limit. Maybe my 3 wood is from the TM tour department????

I know the newer TM Tour fairways usually had 2 SN's on them.

Oh ok. Mine only has 1 serial number stamped on the hosel of the club. I think that SLDR retail heads have a serial number that starts with a 3..... Although a "T" in the serial number would usually denote a tour issue head.

Where's bobcat when you need him? Lol.
