Davis Love III PXG WITB at 2015 RSM Classic

[BirdieBob]

James Hahn has them in the bag as well!

51 year old Davis Love III is the perfect player to sponsor a golf company whose design focus is youthful, non traditional and aggressive. Was Colin Montgomerie or Tom Watson unavailable too?

[putts4bogey]

Regarding the wet pants, a source at the event stated, [i]"just moments before the photos, Love was seen on his knees searching for a weight screw that had fallen out of his driver."[/i]


Love could not be reached for comment.

I don't think PXG is targeting the youthful market at all, that's more Nike and Puma.

I'd say DL, III is still relevant on the PGA Tour and with all golf fans.

Current Ryder Cup Captain and Davis just won on the PGA Tour at the Wyndham. When was Monty's last PGA Tour win (or Tom Watson's)?

I guess anything truly is possible,




with enough money.

Unfortunately my wallet, wife and PXG do not see eye to eye.

Haha, your wife must know my wife.

My wife feels the same way but I always go against the grain...

[My2Dogs]

I know some don't like the look but I think the irons looks sexy. Everyone has a preference and I like them. Wish I had a place near me to test them out.

A bit off topic, but does anyone know what shoes Matt (in the PXG hat) is wearing? Those look right up my alley.

Apart from the hex weights the clubs look legit!
So what's he testing there? PXG v. M1 v. R15? Project X Hazrdus in all?

Was he kneeling down on the driving range? His trouser knees are soaked.

TM drivers were taken out, at least for today's Monday Pro-Am. Yes on the Hzrdus

Warm and humid here today

I guess not yet game ready, M1 today (Thursday).

They kind of look suede in some pics. Agreed, they do look cool.

It's not a sponsorship. He's playing them for free!

Not my cup of tea but if they perform good deal. Just feels like it will be a brand until they get tired of throwing money at it. The price point doesn't really fit your typical golfer.

That very well could be the case. They are starting to sign some top level pros so it sounds like they are going to get agreesive with their branding model.

Yup, heard from another thread they got Horshel and Z Johnson. Still bewildered by the Zach switch. Should be interesting how he does this year. They even took a shot at J Day, getting bold.

I read in an interview with Parsons that "your typical golfer" is not PXG's target at all.
PXG is targeting people to whom price is no object, they just want the best product money can buy.
He also said the company has the funding to be around for a long time.

I think that Davis might be the perfect person to sponsor these clubs.
I think people closer to his age and income bracket are PXG's target audience.

Agreed. PXG is definitely targeting the more "distinguished" golfer who has the extra disposable income to blow on high priced equipment. It will be interesting to see how complete in this tough market.
