They didn't make an '09 Burner 3 wood. They made an '07 Burner, an '08 Burner (High Launch and Tour Launch), and the '10 Superfast Burner.

As of December '09 he was using a Nike DYMO: http://blogs.golf.com/equipment/2009/12/bag-of-the-day-anthony-kim.html He could have changed since, he has used a SUMO and an Adams 1 hybrid in the past.

In my bag:

Driver: Titleist TSi3 | 15º 3-Wood: Ping G410 | 17º 2-Hybrid: Ping G410 | 19º 3-Iron: TaylorMade GAPR Lo |4-PW Irons: Nike VR Pro Combo | 54º SW, 60º LW: Titleist Vokey SM8 | Putter: Odyssey Toulon Las Vegas H7

I don't know TM products well enough to distinguish which year it was, but I saw it too. Are you confused by it being a TaylorMade or by there not being an '09 version (according to an above post)? I can't comment on the latter, but I suspect his equipment contract with Nike specifies around ten clubs (that's typical) and probably something about his appearance and clothing.

The ten-club thing typically is some combination of driver, irons and wedges. Many players deviate on their fairway woods, given how hard it is to find one you like, even at their level. And given Mr. Cameron's propensity for making putters for tour players, many will take them as offered.

I'm just glad my friend who loves Taylormade products is on vacation. He'd never let me forget it if he knew AK had one in the bag.

What's so confusing about it? Players do this all the time.

Players will typically sign an 11, 12, or 13 club deal w/ a club sponsor. I believe AK has an 11 club deal w/ Nike. So, he can shoot that TM wood if he chooses too.

Look at the winner's bags of tournaments this year. Aside from Els, everyone of them had at least one club in their bag that isn't from their club sponsor.

It's nothing new and it's not really a big deal.

For those wishing confirmation, golf.com's feature on the winner's bags ( http://blogs.golf.com/equipment/2010...equipment.html ) says that it was a TM strong 3-Wood. He also carried a Scotty Cameron, but the other 12 clubs (Driver, 4-Wood, 3-L, !G) were Nike.

Not a problem. Like I said, a club sponsor will require a player to carry a certain number of their clubs. Only 2 of 14 AK's clubs weren't Nike.

I wondered how those sponsorship deals worked. Making them carry a certain minimum number of clubs from your own line makes a ton of sense. 10 or 11 is a good number. I'm usually a TM guy, but I'd have a tough time carrying any more than 9 or 10 of their clubs. I only carry 2 right now.

What's in my Sun Mountain C-130 bag:

Driver - Taylormade Superfast 2.0 TP 10.5
3 Wood - Taylormade Burner 15* REAX
Hybrid - Adams Idea Pro 18* GD YSQ-HL

Irons - Callaway X-18 4-PW

GW - Cleveland 588 51*

SW - Cleveland CG 12 56*

LW - Cleveland CG15 60*

Putter - Cameron Studio Style Newport 2

Sure, but look at your X-18s. That's another 7 clubs right there. If you were offered a good sum of money to have 10 TMs in the bag, would you consider the TaylorMade irons that compete with the X-18s?

I'm not suggesting you run out and replace your X-18s, but it's not as if TaylorMade and Callaway have radically different clubs, so it's not impossible to imagine someone making the switch.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.

      Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026.

      Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?
