How is a golf club driver made
MAKING A TAYLORMADE R15 DRIVER - FACTORY TOUR
everyone we are here today at
tailor-made headquarters teleme daddy -
and Ashworth headquarters as you can see
in the background we're here today to
collect a new driver and three good
piece we exciting yeah it's exciting in
the fitting division last week which is
really good and we've got some graveyard
good but hopefully some gains on
consistency so whole idea today is we're
going to show you how these things are
made so a pretty quick so today we're
going to take you into the factory we'll
show you how the person put together
we've got an ar-15 driver each and a
narrow burn a 3-wood so we're going to
take you inside show how they put these
clubs together so hopefully it's going
to be a bit of a different video for you
guys so let's get in there and have a
look shall we
right okay so we're inside now and you
like our new uniform yes so they made oh
yes they certainly brighten up losing my
goal actually got a new team member as
well so e CC wearing the same outfit
James so James is going to be our sort
of a guide tour guides of the day so
he's gonna take us inside that door
there to see where all the magic where
your clubs are being sent off and being
built so it's going to say you know you
have been within the night and let me
put the grip on which is maybe a good
idea but hit a bad shot is Michael okay
so here is his out golf shafts so
Pierce's is the one the left with the
ninja stars and mine is the the orange
one there so were as the heads and the
the cover so we're about to see the
process look at these grips me and my
golf blues well so um this literally
tailored to us
[ __ ] Christmas in January about very
nice looking good
okay apologies for the noise because
there's a lot of guys working hard if
we've got Gavin who's going to be
looking after us today Gavin oh yeah
yeah here you get these or you'll trust
me to put a grip on this at the end of
the process we'll get someone to
double-check yeah I'll give it a go see
what happens
alright what do we do right so we go
obviously we've got the components first
you can look at your order we've seen
what you need obviously two very good
golfers of these specifications deep
yeah well I get there with that one
first
first of all the person's picked them
off you check that we've got the right
products they're the right sharp right
grips head covers everything really goes
off cutting process first
this is where we're going to get the
shaft cut size and then obviously this
is the first stage and this is gabbing
yeah this is where we get the shaft cuts
yeah yeah we're going to get shafts got
here on our machine this work we've got
every part that we offer okay
from wedges to drivers Fair Work and any
open you have any shot that alone we
thought it would be
you see to pre-digital points of an inch
in terms of accuracy we can get very
very up
we just know all of you actually know so
this is tunneling Pierce's shaft here so
you've gone for the fubuki piece this is
the stiff shaft yeah extra stiffness
extra steps with it was amazing we ice
do prepares X amount of years ago we
used to put the tape around and cut
through the middle of it's changed a
little bit since
right
Oh
simple as that simple as that as the
first one still in
here's my shaft the the matrix finds a
slightly heavier shaft and this is stiff
- as opposed to extra step because I
like a little bit more feel in mine
Pierce likes is like a poker
hey that's done
because that thank you
easy
forget vex
okay so we're going to get the next part
which is the gluon stage right so you've
got to wait after this process it's
ready mins for its assets okay so what
they did to our phone
that's one can load at the back of the
van handy yeah
it's a hive of activity this is guys
everywhere lots of quality control
I don't miss you tonight
the whiteheads in my shop yeah it's just
a simple process but
Lewin yeah two carloads and epoxy resin
much warm up on until the to home to mix
the pack take which is that straight to
the head sharp minor now sell there and
they'll be joined because one very
simple to put a glue really that's what
it is they liked you first of all
the mine is actually 12 degree 10 years
so that's the most people think I'm sure
you're going to use like a nine and a
half but the reason being my launch is
quite low so 12 degree just gives me a
little bit more launch but actually not
that you're locked down a little bit so
it's a little bit more open side I have
seen the club system closed so not the
loft out it's going to open the club
that they've address so it's just going
to CLO this around you don't pretend an
athlete on how yes I have indeed
we go done doing that's it I wiped out
20 minutes which is why here for 20
minutes
now we're gonna blow the battle zone
okay whilst we're waiting for the glue
to dry and he's gonna do his tier skills
and drills you just swan dive swan dive
down there yeah that's good better have
a staff party Christmas and that's
definitely straighter than your drives
down there okay so the clubs are dry
Pierce now it's time for the gripping
yeah they let me have a goat one buddy
was absolutely horrendous so I've been
he's gonna take it out of my hands now
here we go so we get advice so we're
having two wraps as well so we're having
slightly thicker grips and standard this
is my grip you can see there's the right
colorant oh good cook right full of that
isn't it close my eyes so good grip
thickness therefore up for me just to
just that feel really do like to do that
a little bit Pickett make sure when you
have a fitting that you ask about that
so it's almost complete now it's amazing
to edit when you get all these people
obviously doing different jobs that the
chances are bad plumbing a bad club
coming out well it's nothing happened I
hope that's politic um so let's do the
yours it's only end up a little bit okay
so if we put four layers of tape into
yours pairs will you stop that hook
maybe maybe that's the guy that's
actually one of the the guys here said
yeah Gavin said I'd like to see you hook
that says he can look at him so yeah
this is extra stiff shot there's sort of
limited on the field to say the least
yeah
I don't need it it's good idea
okay although so exercises for the grip
next person and the next person the
chain
yeah yeah just carry on with this
so why is it be using here - obviously
it's double-sided tape on them though so
it's like nipple clips in the show but
we also
it's similar to what spirits
they used to put the grips on it takes
normally about 30 minutes for it to dry
thank the poison starts with Iroquois
it's environmentally friendly one idea
as well yeah
even better
a definite mine looks better that flew
in that silver combination yeah I think
you're white so that way you've more
bothered about who's the best it's all
on camera
Bria I'm at you golf clubs next person
okay so this well what happens and this
is sort of this station now what goes on
here check shock damage as well
so this is the quality chat really make
sure everything's right and ready before
it goes out the model shingle boats
administration
I got some rush hours
yourself spring
that's Instagram
on the show
so policy control obviously you've got
the cleanest car out of everyone here
then here
perfect thank you all breathe thank you
where does it go
okay next station so this is where we
just get it packed out and sent away to
us but we're going to tell you the way
yeah ba-bling anything so you don't want
to go with your chef you probably do
anything protects it you're driving as
well I mean oh yeah oh yeah we usually
do here we're just inspecting visually
there claps okay against the description
we've got from the customer that's a
great group shot blocked setting in the
heads makes you take everything up here
yeah bring so this is just again making
sure that everything that that we've
ordered is just making sure that's going
out right there we go but exposing it
there's not where to go all the wrenches
to change the lock setting fantastic so
we're good to go but normally obviously
so we go in the box and then there's a
big round the corner picks everything up
the next day or a same day and they're
shipped out simple as that Andy simple
as that and I thought one person did it
it's a little bit different than we
thought
yeah
right then Andy we have a new box of
toys such as golf clubs
thank you very much hello mates of the
driver and the 3-wood yeah thank you
very much tailor-made so obviously the
fitting we did for this was in part one
video so make sure you check back have a
look at that and see how they and the
fitters Liam actually got through to
getting is the specs pretty good
experience and using this is the first
time we've seen actually behind the
scenes and what the obvious what the
manufacturer does in order to get the
golf go back to you guys what's plus
processing just in time for our trip to
Orlando which we haven't yet talked
about so it's cold here at the minute we
fly into Orlando on the water what date
is it
we're flying there so we've been cool
always there that's the 2030s so we're
going to will end up two weeks so stay
tuned some vlogs and some videos of some
golf courses so it's going to be
adjusting it okay so I got run over
there but thanks for watching cheers bye
