Ping of Taylormade - who has more users on the PGA tour?

[Slammin' Sam]

Pretty Sure Titleist has a very long list as well...

I thought this might be close so I checked it out. Scotty Camerons are currently in use by 18 PGA Tour players; Pings are being used by 19.

There are more than 18 scotty users on the PGA tour. I am 100000% sure on that one. :P

I went by sponsored players off the manufacturer's websites and I might be wrong, but I don't believe Scotty Camerons are as popular as you seem to think.

You were talking about usage, not sponsorship. Sure, 18 pros sponsered sounds about right, but we are talking usage here, and way way way more than 18 on the pga tour use scottys.

[Slammin' Sam]

Proof please? Your saying that you're "100000% sure" doesn't make you right.

this article was published in 2008, but at the bottom gives a list of all the players who were using scotty cameron putters , the majority of which are not sponsored by titleist. i would imagine more players use them as of today.
i'm surprised odyssey hasn't been mentioned in this conversation.

Die hard scotty fans back me up here?! it's just too obvious! If i had the time, i could find out 30+ users just like that.

It seems Titleist account for more than 30% (on average) of the putters on the PGA tour:

This suggests that there should be more than 18 users?

[Bigtank]

The Scotty web is only "staffers", there are many more in play.

Slammin Sam you want proof.....do you see Tiger on the staff list??? Last time I checked he was using a Scotty, minus the debacle at the open.

We left out Bettinardi too.

[Slammin' Sam]

I suggest you check out Tiger's official website...he uses a Nike. And even if he did, just how would that prove that more PGA Tour players use Camerons?

[Alley Cat]

Tiger uses a Scotty... he won 13 majors with it and only switched to the Nike for two rounds during the Open.... He promptly switched back to the Scotty.

[Bigtank]

You know Bigfoot's "official" website says he real...

[enis750]

I will also say that there r more than 18 Scotty user's on tour ...... WAAAAAY more

Most Used Putter:

Not even close. Odyssey has higher numbers, and has had for a decade.

But it's all moot anyway. If there was a putter that was demonstrably "better" everyone would use it.

[Bigtank]

Not to mention the putter you and I pick up of the rack is not even close to the thing the touring guys are using.

[Shanks A Million]

Taylormade has more players than any other company, and it's no contest. Titleist is up there, but Taylormade is pretty much on every other hat on the PGA tour. It almost seems like your sponsored by Taylormade, or someone else anymore.

Actually Titleist leads in putters and wedges. And golf balls, of course.

http://www.titleist.com/players/equipment_counts.asp That's a Titleist page, but they're Darrell Survey numbers and it'd be illegal - and their competitors would call them on it - if they lied or made things up. Putters - 1st Wedges - 1st Irons - 1st Hybrids - ~3rd Fairways - ~2nd or 3rd Drivers - 2nd behind TM Ball - 1st Lots of misinformation out there, folks. There's a reason TaylorMade mostly focuses on the driver and lists "Ping, Cobra, Adams, Callaway, Mizuno, etc. combined" - because if they added Titleist they couldn't say it. It'd be more like "more than even Titleist and Mizuno drivers combined." Far less impressive.

Shanks,

Just because they have a TM hat or bag, does not mean they are playing TM equipment. They are pretty loose about the club requiments, they may only be playing the woods (or metals). I believe (dont quote me), but I believe TM only requires you to carry 2 of their clubs in order to be a staff pro.
