Metals, irons and wedges

Looks like its woods, irons and wedges. Will only have the woods in play this week. Someone on GC this AM said he is working with them to make his irons

[ChillyDipper]

I think it's woods only. From TM's website, they show him playing the driver in their promo video, but only show the face of the irons. Being a VR Pro player myself, the groove pattern on the face of iron looks strangely familiar.

Will play woods this week and they are working on developing a new iron currently.

Wow ...tiger to TM . I'll need a muzzle for a certain tmag /TW fan I know. First Clemson wins now this. It truly is the end of the word.

Yes, it's TM, no big surprise: https://twitter.com/...246900895252481

 

"Join the family"...he's becoming a part owner!

 

Nope. The official announcement from both parties makes no mention of investment by Woods or any group affiliated with him.

Dear jonathan,

 

I first started playing TaylorMade equipment as far back as I can remember, so I'm no stranger to what this company has done over the years in pushing golf innovation forward. This brand has played a major role in my life and has contributed to many of my early successes, including U.S. Junior and U.S. Amateur Championships. Today, I am proud to announce that I am officially joining the TaylorMade family.

 

Throughout my career, I've always been meticulous about my equipment. Over the past few months, I've had clubs from every brand sent to me to test. When it came to making a final decision, the choice was easy-it all came down to performance, which is why I chose TaylorMade.

 

In 2017, my new bag will include the full M family of metalwoods - Driver and Fairways. In fact, the new M2 3-Wood is unlike anything I've ever hit. It has the perfect shape and I told the guys during our first meeting that this is the farthest I've ever hit a fairway wood.

 

For irons and wedges, I'm going to work closely with the team at TaylorMade. For my irons, we will be developing a new custom set. Over the coming months, we will take you along the development journey, from the initial design concepts all the way through the process until they make it into my bag. Finally, the new MG Wedge is absolutely beautiful, and we're working to dial in the exact grind for me. There's no doubt it's fun to have some new weapons, and the confidence I have in my new TaylorMade equipment makes me excited for the season.

 

As I've said before, my goal remains the same: to win.

 

This is going to be fun. Tiger Woods

So we've come full circle. Now Tiger wants to be just like Jason Day.

It's a full deal minus putter - woods, irons, and wedges

Wow, did not expect to see TaylorMade irons and wedges in his bag once he finds some he likes. Surprised they did a big deal while TaylorMade is still for sale. So TaylorMade drops a lot of mid-level staffers for Tiger. That's actually...smart.

[Blade Junkie]

Turns out the Danny Willett 'announcement' was more exciting then ... :)

[Sebmour]

How many people think its because TM is a genuinely great product, or they just paid the hell out of him?

 

Probably both. TM are good products just the huge marketing machine that bugs me... Too many products, too many new innovations that disappears the next generation (6 months later)

Fins on Aeroburner = no more

Loft up = no more

Face slots = no more on P770/750 tour proto

[Holy Moses]

So when Tiger said only the 3W is new this week, he just mean he's bagging the 2017 M2?

[egr2teup]

I'm anxious to see how Tiger performs with new and improved equipment.

[jreed]

Taylormade has built themselves built themselves quite a staff!

"Testing"

 

Negotiations.

YEah I just got a personal email from TW :taunt:

Tiger was all about plain, easy to look at equipment. He chooses the one company that has their stampings and letters all over the damn clubs.

 

I bet the irons that he is developing is essentially a Miura blade with TW/TM stampings all over it.

[Mizzylefty]

I can see TW and Sergio doing a cozy commercial together............ :taunt:

Some sort of "old men on tour" type commercial. I would love that.

[KYMAR]

It's irons and wedges as well but according to the email that I just got, written by the taylormade marketing department, and fake signed by Tiger himself, they will be developing a brand new set of irons over the next few months and they will be showing the progress along the way. At least according to the marketing guy pretending to be Tiger.

 

Stay tuned for more fake Tiger letters.

[Bear Trader]

I finally can buy TM and not feel bad about it!

[Mizzylefty]

You mean he didn't mail me personally ?? Aww don't say that !

Yeah I just sent mine to Michaels to have it framed :(

[drvrwdge]

Is he the only TM staffer to not be playing their ball?
