Jon Rahm to Callaway

Figured he was long term TM as well, was having great success with TM why change now..

If he wasn't playing at the level he is now, Callaway wouldn't have offered what they did to bring him on. He's willing to accept the risk while betting on himself to continue to play at a very high level while also increasing his off-course income.

Just because Sergio imploded after switching doesn't mean that Rahm will too. Not saying it certainly won't happen, but it's not also not pre-determined.

I like Jon but feel he's made a mistake.  I don't see him driving up Callaway sales.  I'm not a great lover of TM, but why mess with clubs that are working?

 

I guess for the $$$'s.

i get that the golf industry is flourishing money wise so they have money to spend, but who is really helping the sell clubs to the public?  Does the average guy even know who plays what? have you ever heard someone say I want the same driver as Jon Rham.... no.  Realistically most people dont care unless its Tiger, and to a lesser extent maybe DJ and Rory, and then right now Bryson... but no one is buying any of the one length crap and giant grips etc but he's good at getting the logo in front of the camera right now.  

This is exactly wrong when it comes to me! I’ve never been a Callaway fan until the moment I heard Rahm switched to them. Intellectually, I know this makes absolutely no sense, but Rahm is my favorite golfer and humans aren’t always logical.

You will be the 1st one to switch when he starts struggling with his new set as look at what happened to the last Spaniard who left TM for Callaway. I never understood why anyone would play a set of club all because someone who is their favorite player plays a certain brand. Look at J.Rose and all the people who made the switch to Honma  and now where is he, back with TM.  This isn't a hint that one company is better than the other but play what you feel comfortable with. I just wonder how many pro's would be honest enough and admit they were really hoping to land a big contract with some other brand instead of the one they got.

Idk his P750s are pretty similar to calaways new x forged CB. The driver and woods will be different but I am not sure how different the irons and wedges will feel. Also I am sure tour players dont make these switches lightly and have at least tested the clubs before they decide if they want to sign

That may or may not be a lot. Personally I have no idea.

 

But how does that compare to the number of ALL other sets sold during the same period ? :classic_blink:

The logic behind John Rahm being anyones favorite golfer is the same small amount of logic OEM's are counting on to separate consumers from their hard earned money.

In my opinion, this is why Callaway bought Jon Rahm.  They need some wins to backup the performance of their equipment.

Callaway just had an Epic Flash win back to back weeks. Probably higher #'s for them on the ET.

I think what he’s saying is there are WITB’s for many of the Tour’s top players. That’s as close as we on GolfWRX come to a “sponsored by” type of list. Most OEM’s list their sponsored players.

Ok gotcha. Just thought there might be a website out there run by some golf nut that would have all that information on one site/page. Sounds good, thanks.

You’d have to find that through the Darrell Survey. I went to the DS's website and clicked on PGA Tour to find results, they send you to the PGA of America. Not a good look.

Haven’t been able to find that data yet 🤔

Winning Drivers: 11 for Callaway, 11 for TaylorMade, 7 for Titleist, 6 for Ping, 1 for Srixon, and 1 for Cobra. 

 

Winning Balls: 18 for Titleist, 9 for TaylorMade, 6 for Callaway, 3 for Srixon, and 1 for Bridgestone. 

 

I think I forgot one along the way, but these are the 2020 European Tour winners. As you can see, Callaway drivers don't always use Callaway balls.

Yeah, just checked out that website and looks like they only offered paid services that look extensive and expensive. Looks like I’ll be surfing those WITB pages on the WRX site and forums still after all until I find a website with the goods!
