There was something I loved about it. I just couldn't put my finger on it.Looks like a transformer on the side of his bag. I know nothing about these clubs.
At first I thought this was an April Fools joke, but then I realized the only joke was that Moore would stay without a recognized sponsor (and money associated with it) for an extended period of time
I'm $ure hi$ deci$ion ha$ nothing to do with financial compen$ation and that he feel$ thi$ equipment i$ the be$t for hi$ game.
Pro's taking sponsorships for money. I know I'm shocked.

I'm quite impre$$ed that you didn't even mi$$ one!
Not the point here. The point is he does this same song and dance EVERY time.
He claimed he was going to go without a club sponsor but all of the sudden was bagging a ton of their gear.
This is a carbon copy of what happened when he was playing Scratch clubs.
I think that Ryan realizes that he is never going to get big time money from Callaway or Taylormade, etc. So he is trying to find a fringe brand and probably get some sort of stake in the company to where if it does become big time or sell out to a major manufacturer he will be in for a big pay day. For most pros it does not matter what clubs they play, they may have a preference, but in all reality they are skilled enough to play what they want. I think Ryan is looking at this bigger picture like a business opportunity instead of investing in a restaurant like GMac or an NFL team like Phil.
Here's my thing, though...he plays well. I mean, he makes cuts, is high up on leaderboards on a pretty consistent basis. When I see a guy with his talent level out on tour, but not able to secure a sponsorship from a company with a) a major tour presence and b) the resources that would let him analyse his game, how to improve it, and put the gear in his hands to do it...I wonder why. Maybe it's as you said, it's a business opportunity for him. But I can't help but wonder if it has something to do with whether he's a guy can be worked with.I think that Ryan realizes that he is never going to get big time money from Callaway or Taylormade, etc. So he is trying to find a fringe brand and probably get some sort of stake in the company to where if it does become big time or sell out to a major manufacturer he will be in for a big pay day.

Then why have PR everywhere pimp out a story that says "Going without a sponsor". Comes across as the boy who cries wolf after doing this exact same thing a couple of years ago.

He wants the PR because it is a business opportunity; don't think it is the right way to go about it, but it is why all of us are talking about this right now isn't it.
Definitely agree that he is a lone wolf. Ryan does not want to have to do all of the corporate events that a major club manufacturer requires.
