TaylorMade Golf Sold!
Interesting. I hope this gets more quality products in the market.
despite all the star power under contract, I haven't been the least bit intrigued by any taylormade stuff in awhile. Interesting to see if anything changes.

I wonder if we will see TMade sponsor some of the best woman in the world because of this move.
the sim stuff is really good. The MC irons are as good as any other players cavity. Putters and wedges are meh..
TM being passed around from one PE firm to another.
I've always liked their woods, but irons have never done much for me in terms of looks. Curious to see what the future holds.
Wonder if this will lead to a sort of involvement like TE on the Champions Tour on the ladies side as most of there top players are from Korea. Hope at some point the hot potato will stop and they will stay with a single parent group or stand alone.
Is this an equity group to equity group transaction? Is that common?
Cool, I have been very impressed with the P irons and the Sim line has been very good. Haven't tested the sim 2, but would imagine it is solid. Just surprising that it is to another private equity group....
Interesting. I hope it works well for TM. I don't want them to fail.

The Sim2 woods are very good imo. I stepped away from them for a while because I wasn’t a fan. I really hope their iron game improves though. I hit the P7MCs a few months ago and thought they felt terrible. I like my P760s but the distances are very inconsistent which I heard is similar for the P770s
Better than imo. TM doesn't get a lot of love here, but they have plenty of good products out.

Both?
Their players irons are great. The woods are great. I think they only lack in the putter and wedge areas.
I think their gear of late has looked quite good, and the star power certainly doesn't hurt - those guys seem pretty happy. Hopefully this goes well for them. I think of TM and Callaway as the hardgoods equivalent of "too big to fail", but I guess no one is really big enough in golf for that to be true.
This year has been extremely successful for the golf industry, so this move makes sense. Buy low, sell high. Be interesting to see what Centroid has in the cards.
Has to be a lot of $$'s for sure.
I hope they find some stability and this works out in the long run. They’ve had a stellar run the last couple of years and I hope it continues.
