Callaway’s 2015 Tour Staff also includes seven Web.com Tour graduates: Adam Hadwin, Tony Finau, Colt Knost, Sam Saunders, Jonathan Randolph, Andres Gonzalez and Derek Fathauer.

The company’s PGA Tour roster has doubled since 2012, when it included 15 PGA full-time players.

    Hey all: WOW callaway has been on a roll the last few years signing up players for their tour staff. Looks like all those that thought Callaways demise was near are singing a different toon today. P..S. is Kenny Perry’s signing a reflection on the uncertainty of his previous sponsor Adams or was his contract just up?

    I switched to Callaway equipment this past fall. It has seriously gotten good with their latest releases. I have been very impressed. I was always a Titleist fan, but Callaway is just hard to beat right now.

      I’m shocked that your name isn’t on the list above.

    Get fit for the Callaway product. Nothing touches it right now in the market. I run a performance center and this is a non-biased opinion from what I see with my customers. I agree they have put out a lot of product lately, but each offering is better than the last. They also have special buy back programs if you bought the 2014 product and want an upgrade.

    Callaway is the best brand out right now all around.

      I actually play Cobras just because I think they’re cool, but I am a former Ping employee and have lots of contacts at Ping. I have nothing against Callaway, but I don’t believe there is another company that can touch Ping for design, quality control or customer service. I’ve dealt with Callaway customer service – OK, but not even in the same league as Ping.

    Too many new products. The consumer buys a club and six months it is obsolete. My goal last year was to not buy any new equipment. I almost made it. New trusty rusty wedges and driving iron. “It’s not the arrow it’s the indian.” I love that one.

      Only Taylormade follows a 6-month product cycle. Almost all other manufacturers follow a 12 month cycle, titleist is a 24 month cycle. And “older” clubs are far from obsolete, the trick is to not listen to the marketing machines.

      It’s all about variety. Go through a fitting and pick a Callaway product, variety is never a problem.

    Now having Andres Gonzales AND Pat Perez, they are now leading golf with amounts of sponsored mullets.

    I remember not so long ago there was an overwhelming sense that Callaway was on its’ deathbed. This turnaround has been a pleasant surprise. Well done Callaway!

      Turn around? If by releasing 14 drivers in the last 2.5 years means turnaround, then sure! The way the market and do business is really off putting. No interest in them anymore.

        They did what they had to stay relevant and it worked. I’m sure they won’t miss your “interest” anymore.

GolfWRX is on site for the second major of 2026: The PGA Championship from Aronimink in Newtown Square, Pennsylvania.

The tournament’s location, just outside Philadelphia, and its status as a major championship mean GolfWRXers are in for a treat: WITBs from a strong field, custom gear celebrating the PGA Championship, and the rich culture of the City of Brotherly Love — we have noted a relative absence of cheesesteak-themed items thus far this week, but most of the rest of the usual suspects are well represented.
