Taylor Made tops US PGA driver count

Taylor Made Golf staff player Larry Nelson and the new 300 Series™ metalwoods are proving to be a match made in golfing heaven.

Nelson’s victory at the Senior PGA’s FleetBoston Classic was his third this year using the new family of Taylor Made drivers.  Nelson has now used two of Taylor Made’s three new drivers to post wins (he used the 320 Ti for his two earlier titles this year).

Meanwhile, the 300 Ti was put in play by the winner of the Buy.com Tour’s Permian Basin Open. 

In total, the 300 Series has contributed to nine wins on the four major men’s tours so far this year – two on the PGA (John Deere Classic, International), two on the European PGA (Irish Open, Loch Lomond), three on the Senior PGA (Las Vegas Senior Classic, Boone Valley Classic, FleetBoston Classic) and two on the Buy.com Tour (Dayton Open, Permian Basin Open).

And the clubs continue to surge in popularity as the fastest-growing clubs on the PGA Tour.  At the Reno-Tahoe Open this weekend, 53 players used the 300 Series, breaking the club’s record for popularity on the tour.  In all, Taylor Made put 55 drivers in play, 13 more than its nearest competitor.  Of those players, 10 using the 300 Series finished in the top 30.
