Let me tell you that I thought it was too...This is built from the ground up from these folks. It is mind blowing.
 
Looks like a pretty cool place.

That my friend.....is the Miya 5 Swing Robot. It's like Iron Byron only not perfect. It can mimic ANY player's swing and provide data on how a shaft performs. That and they're Gears Golf System make me want to go there and just play for hours. Can't wait for the details from this trip!!!
 
Very cool! Welcome to Memphis. Hope you had a good time. Looking forward to more info from the visit.

Well, partially correct. The Gears Golf System is definitely there. The Miya 5 Swing Robot is partially there. Its the basis of their robot, but completely rebuilt from a partnership they have created. Their robot is definitely unique to True Temper. It was pretty fascinating to learn about how they completely changed the unit.

Ah, this is where I originally thought the shaft event was going to be held. Interesting testing facility. I'm looking forward to learning what you found at Ridgeway.
 
That is pretty cool. True Temper is straight baller.
 
And that staff bag in the last picture is just awesome.

Extremely cool stuff. Mad scientist stuff, more or less!

Agreed. That is a sick staff bag.
 
Awesome pics and like Fupresti said the guys heading out to the Handcrafted event are in for a ride.
 
Very cool. Nice pics and the staff bag is super awesome. Jealous of the guys going to the event.

This is something I could listen to the folks who designed it talk about for hours. That's really cool.

Freaking cool
 
One of the things I find interesting is the picture with the non golf related items on display. I had no idea they too ventured into different markets.
 
That bag, tho.



Very cool photos. The handcrafted experience guys are in for a treat.
