Woods isn't sure when he's going to return to competitive golf, but he still has thoughts on some of the pressing issues facing the sport.

TaylorMade Golf is announcing the acquisition of putter-maker Logan Olson, who built putters for Scottie Scheffler and others last year.

TaylorMade officially partners with putter builder Logan Olson.Olson will develop a Tour Matrix line of putters for TaylorMade professionals.Olson’s Craft Batch putters will continue to be available at loganolsonputters.com.

TaylorMade has officially brought boutique putter maker Logan Olson into their putter design team. TaylorMade views the 27 year-old Olson as a “generational talent” and they are excited to add him to their Product Creation team.

This announcement is not super-surprising. TM staffer Scottie Scheffler spent some time testing out Logan Olson putters in late 2023. After their collaborative testing and tweaking, Scheffler rolled an Olson putter to victory at the Hero World Challenge.

With that kind of success, it’s a wonder that this partnership took so long to become official.

The next generation of putter builders

Unlike the other clubs in your bag, putters frequently have the designer’s name on them. This is not a new phenomenon. Half a century ago, putters bore names like Karsten Solheim, John Reuter, Jr. and TP Mills. Run it forward a few decades and the names became Kia Ma, Robert J. Bettinardi, Sean Toulon and, of course, Scotty Cameron.

The big putter companies are facing a bit of a dilemma. As good as those above-mentitoned putter guys are, most of them are closer to the end of their building careers than the beginning.

Back in February when Sun Day Red made its initial appearance, there was one thing in particular I gravitated towards: footwear.

For months, I’ve seen prototypes and have been left wondering what Sun Day Red’s foray into golf footwear would look like.

I’m happy to report that it’s no longer left to my imagination. Sun Day Red’s first golf shoe, the Pioneer Cypress, makes its retail debut tomorrow, Dec 4. It’s here and, to my surprise, it’s glorious.

I won’t sit here and say I love everything about the Pioneer Cypress. But, just based on initial impressions and a first wear test, I’m pleasantly surprised with what Sun Day Red has accomplished in such little time.

If the brand’s mission was to make the traditional golf shoe better, they’re well on their way. Here’s what I mean.

We assume this latest round to questionable spelling is a nod to company founder Ely Callaway, so we’ll begrudgingly allow it.

Still, Callaway, there are established ways to spell stuff, and nobody will fault you for rolling with the status quo.

Anyway, out of the gate, Callaway will launch with four models that appear to mirror the offerings from last season.
