Interesting. Would TM stand for Tigermade?

Or he might be buying it so he can have a club sponsor.

Has anyone heard of this term called 'loan'? . Don't think you have to be worth ALL of it if you have brand name collateral. TW name would be worth a significant amount of the collateral.

Wow can you imagine,  in a few years we could all be hitting our 18 degree pitching wedges 500 yards.  Good old tiger made the clubs you can trust.

Probably looking for another revenue stream in case his pro golf career doesn't pan out. ;-)

Taylormade? I don't think so. The company albeit on the decline and can certainly be picked up for a "bargain" (if it's able to be resurrected...) still has $xxx millions in revenue each year. I don't believe even Tiger has the funds for a venture like this.

How much is something like that worth?  I though Tiger was worth over a billion?

I had no idea Tiger was worth what he is. If I can believe google, he's around ~700 million net worth. I think you can flirt with buying many companies with that. However, net worth isn't the same as cash. So I really have no idea.

If TW bought TM, I would guess that sales would increase. That's just a guess though.

      Driver and Fw3 Swing Weight Changes, Make Sense?

      By BananaBomber · Posted

      I am currently playing a Cobra Ltdx LS 9 degree driver and Cobra Ltdx LS FW3. Both with Tensei White stock stiff shafts and original weights of 12g (heel) and 3g (toe). My miss is usually a pull fade or sometimes a slice, swing is out to in. Driver swing speed about 112 mph. Grips are stock regular. Intended change: Driver: Switching to Tensei White x-flex one inch shorter which I suppose would be 44,5? Changing heel weight to 18g. Changing grip to Golf Pride Z-grip cord midsize. Change hosel setting to standard draw. FW3: Changing heel weight to 16g (apparently not available in FW weights, but supposed to be something called "internal weight" a club builder can add which fits between the weight and the screw?). Change grip to Golf Pride Z-grip cord midsize. Changing hosel setting to standard +1. The goal is to 1) get better grip since I tend so lose grip in warm and moist conditions with the current grips and 2) mitigate the misses to start more straight with less side spin. Also considering adding the Cobra Ltdx LS FW5 instead of my old Taylormade R9 and getting 14g heel and 6g toe weights with the same grip as the others and hosel setting standard +1.   All of the above is based on conversations with ChatGPT and, as everyone knows, it can come up with pretty much whatever but I spent a few hours asking about different perspectives etc and this was the recommendation. So, my question is basically, does it make any sense?   Thanks.
