Win a chance to play in the Franklin-Templeton Shark Shootout Pro-Am with your new, custom-fit set of TaylorMade clubs that include the new JetSpeed metal woods. Other prizes include:

  • 4-nights and the Ritz Carlton at Tiburon (Monday, December 9-Friday, December 13)
  • Golf at Tiburon
  • Play and get lessons from world-renowned instructor Hank Haney!

Seven (7) lucky GolfWRX Members will be chosen to win this incredible TaylorMade Golf Experience and ONE (1) of those selected with get the grand prize, a spot in the Franklin-Templeton Shootout Pro-Am!

 

TO ENTER

TaylorMade's new Speed Pocket makes the SLDR fairway woods lower spinning and higher launching than the RBZ Stage 2 Tour fairway woods, and it’s safe to say that golfers will likely see the same from JetSpeed, as higher-launching, lower-spinning metalwood shots are the key to helping most golfers unlock more distance.

 

In a post below, state why you're a candidate for JetSpeed metal woods and their low and forward center of gravity. Please try to use 100 words or less. Also include your location (town/state) and current handicap.

 

Winners will be chosen based on their entry by on or about Monday, November 25. Good luck!

As a golfer with a steep angle of attack I always struggle with producing too much spin on the golf ball. Balooning has always been my number one problem so it sounds as if the JetSpeed could help in finding the answer to lowering my spin. The Ritz at Tiburon is also an amazing property and would love a chance to go back to the property!

If the Jetspeeds are better than the RBZ Tour, than I have to try them. The original RBZ technology was such a change for my bag, but boy did it work. It these are even more forgiving, with the same ball speeds and less spin count me in.

My swing produces a VERY high rate of spin and a very high launch angle. I have moved away from Taylormade drivers this year after 5+ years of playing with them. I am ready to move back to TM drivers and the JetSpeed's LCG would most definitely help with my high spin/launch rates. I need a driver that I can launch out with my playing partners again. As well, I really haven't played an awesome, well known course like [color="#282828"]Tiburon. Would love to have the opportunity to play a course like this.[/color]

[color=#282828]Taylormade/GolfWRX, please give me the opportunity to get my lost distance back with the new JetSpeed. Gosh, I sure need it back.[/color]

The Jetspeed would be great for me because I tend to launch the ball very low with a very low trajectory. Something higher launching would help me gain some distance while also helping me gain some yards once the ball hits the ground. I'm a good golfer, been playing 28 out of my 29 years of being alive, but feel this is the one thing holding me back.

I have always had issues getting my 3 wood into the air. The only time I have ever felt comfortable with a wood off the deck was my old taylormade 4 wood. I really would like to find a 3 wood that I could hit off the deck. A good 3 wood with a lesson from Hank would be priceless.

I am a HUGE TM fan and would love to take part in the trip. Low and forward COG would, no doubt, lower my spin, increase my launch angle, and help me get to places in the fairway I don't usually get to. I also think I would hit it off big with Hank. I am a better player than Charles, have a better outlook than Ray, am less polarizing than Rush, and a better athlete than Phelps (ok, so I made up the last part). I'd be a joy for him to work with by comparison, and a great ambassador for the brand during the trip. Thanks and see you in Naples! Ha Ha!

When I got the chance to hit the SLDR, the low forward CG worked phenomenally for my swing. I've never hit it farther, just didn't care for the feel. If they improve that, these clubs will be MONEY! The opportunity to chat with Hank would be unreal!

Because of the current economic situation I haven't made any changes to my bag in years. I currently have in my bag an original R9 driver, V-Steel 3w, Rescue Dual 19* hybrid and original Rac OS irons. The new technology would help me greatly, I produce too much spin with my woods and have never been fitted for clubs. My goal is to play 60+ rounds in 2014. Haney lessons wouldn't hurt me either!

Wow! What a trip!

Being that I am re-vamping my Driver/Wood set-up, this prize would be a great launch point. Some lessons from hank would be an absolute blast as well. Being that my swing speed isn't all that great, the higher launch will greatly help. The lower spin would also help my tendency to come across the ball. An awesome product and an awesome opportunity.

The JetSpeed products not only look slick, but reduced spin and high launch would be awesome! My 3 wood launches a bit too low for me to hit it effectively at times, and I'm always looking for more distance on my drives. Maybe I have a steep angle of attack, but it's been a few years since my last lesson... It would be beyond incredible to get a lesson from Hank!

I would be a great candidate because as a father of 5 I don't get to go out and play that much (maybe 2-3 times a month). When I do I play decent (I hit balls into my net in the garage), but the long game just isn't there. It would be great to win this not just for the sticks, but for Mr. Haney to help me fine tune my game when I get to play. My handicap is an 8.

Oh my what a great opportunity!

With my higher handicap and steeper AoA I can almost always use less spin! As my game improves, my equipment needs to improve with it. I'd be a great candidate for the TM Jetspeeds!

[color=#282828]I have a Calaway Driver and 2 generations old TM / RB 3 and 4 hybrids. The timing is perfect to move up to a TaylorMade JetSpeed set. As if that was not incentive enough.

This seems like a great and fun opportunity for a trip of a lifetime! I deloft the club at impact and hit the ball really low so I think the higher launch of the TM Jetspeed woods could go great with my game! Unfortunately, I don't have a ton of money lying around, so this trip is probably the only chance I'll have to get some new fairway woods in my bag! Plus, how much of a thrill would it be to meet Hank Haney?!

Good luck to everyone!

I would Love this! I recently had an opportunity to have Hank Haney give me some pointers and they have been helping my game! I would love a chance to get a follow up lesson and some more tips from Hank! I am a 15 handicap and a very competitive golfer that loves the game of golf I tried the new Taylor Made clubs and they are on my Christmas list. Hope I get a chance to work with Hank Again!

I would treasure the opportunity to play the new JetSpeeds. A Ping player for years, the RBZ woods performance finally knocked me out of the "one brand bag" habit. And now TaylorMade's outdone those!?! Wow!

About me: I am pretty much the epitome of an average player, iced away in Kalamazoo, MI. Currently a 19HCP, I am actually looking forward to that number skyrocketing - my wife and I just adopted our first child.

It would be great to have Mr. Haney solidify my fundamentals and teach me training habits so my game could improve even with my focus being on something much more important than golf next summer.

Oh man, I'd love to win this. I only have the time to play once or twice a month, and really need to focus on playing and practicing consistently this year. This trip sounds like it would provide just the motivation I need to become a serious golfer. I'll never get the benefit out of this that the low handicap guys will, but it would be a hell of a trip. And maybe switch out all the Titleist in my bag for TaylorMade.

I'm an 18 handicap, currently in the process of transitioning from the woods I use now to a set that's properly fit for me. I haven't had the opportunity to get into a legitimate shop, that offers club fitting for my swing style/speed, and has an outdoor hitting range. I do have a lower ball flight, and would love to get fit into some clubs that bring my ball flight up. I was actually interested in looking at this line when I saw their release. I currently play TaylorMade woods, but they're off the rack with no fitting whatsoever.
