UA is strictly apparel right?
Correct

Seems like they are a long way off from making clubs
And one of the biggest reasons he signed with UA originally is so he didn't have to change clubs. He has said that his equipment will not be driven by endorsements, but rather performance.

I mean, it's not like Nike is giving Tiger and Rory drivers off the shelf.

But both switched because of the endorsement, not because they felt like Nike had better equipment. Jordan has publicly stated that he wants to choose his endorsement based on the equipment not the other way around like Rory and Tiger did...and again, it's WHY he signed with UA.

For example, Jordan isn't going to switch putters for an endorsement deal. Like both Rory and Tiger did.

I just don't see him being the pilot person to get their equipment arm up and running. Maybe 5-10 years from now.
