  1. 1. Do you find the new Taylormarde R11 Driver commercial "Fun" or "Annoying"?

    • It's a FUN commercial, I like the song and it's 'catchy'!
      8
    • It's annoying, I can't stand it, makes me want to poke a sharp stick in my eye.

So, after watching the Sony Open and the NFL Playoffs, I swear I've seen the new R11 commercial about 20 times already.  At first it was kinda fun, now it's getting very annoying.  What do you think?

I find myself trying to name / guess what driver it is as they scroll by, than remembering what the commercial is for.  Not sure if it's an effective commercial for TM.

I think it's fantastic.  Yes it's overplayed, but it's a lot of fun too.

When I first saw the commercial I knew exactly who it was and what it was advertising.  You know that eventually a white driver head is going to come on the screen.  I was just surprised how long it took them they went through about 15 black driver heads before getting to the R11.  I almost turned it off but I wanted to see if I was right.  Its ok I have only seen it the one time but I think its too long they could probably cut it down some.

Love it.

It's funny. I did enjoy trying to pick out which drivers were there too. Also this is the only time I've ever seen the commercial so my opinion on it being overplayed is invalid.

That commercial is making me want to go out and buy myself my first callaway driver. I really like the look of it from the R11 commercial and the aiming aid logo of the callaway has to be the best of all the drivers shown ......... and the callaway isnt a hideous white colour

It was funny the first 20 views...the 21st view began its decline...the commercial is a one trick pony.

In my Ogio bag.

Titleist 910D2 driver, Adams irons & hybrid, Callaway wedges & a Nike Method putter.

And a yellow ball.

Has anyone seen the newer ones? They still have the "One of these things is not like the other" song playing in the background, but not the whole thing and they put some sound effects and technical sounds over it. It's a lot less annoying.

It's annoying for anyone who had/has kids and heard the real Sesame Street song.  I want to grab the Ad people by the collar and yell at them to "sing the damn song right will ya!!".
