Awesome, Taylormade did well for our fellow GolfWRX staff. I am deeply saddened that you guys did not stop by our shop! We are 10mins away from Torrey Pines. Next time, stop by for sure and demo all of our JDM only golf clubs and our vault of very rare putters :happy: Looking forward to the full write up. Good work gentlemen.

Very true but you make some good coin so you'll be fine.  The problem is that you like "tour" everything...

Yesterday Easy, Zak, and myself visited the Taylor Made Kingdom to meet with the designers, engineers, and the Vice President.  We were  the first people to Demo and try all the new gear at the Kingdom.  Irons, Fairways, Drivers, Rescues,Wedges, and Balls!
Today we played Torrey Pines.   It's late and I am exhausted so I'll add to the post tomorrow, but here are some pics of our awesome trip.....
Zach

Sweet hat.  I would love one of those.  As for that putter... sick, sick, sick, sick, sick, sick...Super nice.  I saw one just like that on a tour of the tour van last year and all I have to say is that is one slick flat stick.  Would love to roll it.  Looks like another great trip by TM.  Those guys are first class!  Looking forward to the review.
D

I saw the hat on this post and immediately went to ebay and typed in "the kingdom hat", saw one going for 3$, asked the seller and she got it at an estate sale and knows nothing about it, so i bought it off him for $3, pretty good steal. And to the OP, great post, cant wait to here more about the trip.

Sweet score... now off to ebay!  LOL

It's supposed to be lower launch than Black. From high to low you have Purple, Black then White. Players were picking up a decent amount of ball speed with the Proto's earlier this year.

Joe Kwok actually posted yesterday that it was the highest launching, but did not disclose spin differences.  Weird.

Work a block away and drive by everyday just hoping for a parking lot sale. Puma has one once in a while but only sells funky shoes that my big toe cant even fit in.
