August 20, 2024 –<\/strong> TaylorMade Golf<\/strong>, an industry leader in technology and innovation, introduces the all-new Kalea Gold<\/strong> women\u2019s line.<\/p>\n

Building on the groundbreaking design of Kalea Premier<\/strong>, every piece of equipment in Kalea Gold was designed with premium components and proven TaylorMade technologies to help women of all abilities play better golf.<\/p>\n

No matter if they\u2019re learning the game or vying for their Club Championship, Kalea Gold elevates the experience for women golfers from tee to green.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cWe decided to name this line Kalea Gold because we wanted to set the gold standard with our second premier women\u2019s line. We\u2019re building on the momentum of Kalea Premier to create a premium product line through design, technology, and performance.\u201d <\/em>\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cThe most important part of the DNA of this product is that it\u2019s designed by women, for women. Kalea Gold represents a new and fresh way of thinking about women\u2019s golf club design,\u201d <\/em>says Michelle Penney<\/strong>, Principal Engineer, Product Development of the company.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Designed by Women for Women<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

In creating Kalea Gold<\/strong>, TaylorMade engineers and designers identified the critical role input from women would play in the design process. That\u2019s why they enlisted four distinct cohorts of women golfers for their feedback.<\/p>\n

The first was the TaylorMade Women\u2019s Advisory Board. This group is comprised of female golf industry professionals located across Europe that represent specific niches like teaching, club fitting, and even women\u2019s golf travel. Together, these women were able to give TaylorMade teams expert feedback on what both they and their female clients liked and didn\u2019t like.<\/p>\n

The second group was the TaylorMade Women\u2019s Golf and Social Club. Consisting of TaylorMade employees, these women were able to provide real-time, organic feedback on everything from colours incorporated into the design to the grips on each club.<\/p>\n

Women\u2019s data-driven\/perception test panels and online reviews from Kalea Premier were the final two cohorts that helped guide the vision of what Kalea Gold would ultimately become.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

In analysing feedback from these groups of women, TaylorMade engineers and product creation teams found that two main priorities rose to the top: cosmetics and performance.\u00a0 Cosmetically, women overwhelmingly advocated for a departure from the soft, pastel colours that are often found in women\u2019s clubs. Instead, they preferred elegant colours like white, blue and gold that are found in Kalea Gold.<\/p>\n

From a performance standpoint in testing, women found the Kalea Gold clubs to be lightweight, forgiving, and high-performing.<\/p>\n

Through this process, TaylorMade teams gained a keen understanding of who the Kalea Gold consumer truly is. While some women were purchasing Kalea Gold as their first set of clubs, a significant portion were making the change to the Kalea Gold line for their second or even third set of new equipment. It became clear early on that Kalea Gold showed tangible benefits for women of all abilities.<\/p>\n

Designed for More Speed and More Distance<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Kalea Gold driver utilises Carbonwood construction throughout the clubhead. This allows for mass to be strategically placed within the head to increase energy transfer, optimise launch, and maximise distance, all while providing the utmost forgiveness and stability.<\/p>\n

Mass optimisation also allows for the addition of a 2\u00b0 loft sleeve and a TSS weight for precision tuning.<\/p>\n

Optimised Performance<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Kalea Gold fairway woods feature a wrapped carbon crown with an elegant look that provides a confidence-inspiring contrast with the ball at address. Here again, the use of ultralightweight carbon enhances launch conditions, speed and forgiveness.<\/p>\n

The Speed Pocket and Inverted Cone face minimise the downrange miss on off-centre strikes. The addition of a TSS weight allows for optimised tuning here as well.<\/p>\n

Precision Performance<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Both the Speed Pocket and Inverted Cone in the face of the Kalea Gold Rescue provide an extra layer of forgiveness. Additionally, the carbon crown lowers the CG for enhanced launch and spin.<\/p>\n

Forgiveness and Control<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Kalea Gold irons utilise Cap Back Design which works in tandem with the Speed Pocket to maximise launch and forgiveness. They also feature an ECHO Damper that promotes better sound and overall feel. The optimised face in each iron is engineered to increase COR for faster ball speeds.<\/p>\n

Visually, the top lines of Kalea Gold irons are thinner than those of Kalea Premier providing a sleeker, cleaner look in the playing position.<\/p>\n

Kalea Gold iron lofts are stronger than Kalea Premier to help improve gapping. The irons have a progressive upright lie angle that aids in draw bias.<\/p>\n

Tour Proven Spider Technology<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Kalea Gold putter uses Spider S construction and multi-material design to increase MOI and stability while aiding in alignment.\u00a0 Its blue body, grey TruePath Alignment, and gold trailing edge provide the perfect contrast against both the ball and green.<\/p>\n

Style and Function <\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Premium construction and attention to detail don\u2019t stop with Kalea Gold clubs. The headcovers are in line with the Kalea Gold theme with their white, gold, grey and blue designs.<\/p>\n

Women can ride in style with the blue and white, or white and grey TaylorMade Cart Lite bag that features a 14-way top and weighs just five pounds. For walkers, the blue and white FlexTech bag offers a four-way top and weighs just five pounds as well.<\/p>\n

The Importance of Custom Fit<\/strong><\/p>\n

The all-new Kalea Gold emphasises TaylorMade\u2019s commitment to providing women golfers of all abilities and swing speeds with the best performing golf clubs for them. Alongside the Qi10 Women\u2019s range, Kalea Gold will be available via custom allowing the golfer to choose the exact setup which suits them, including a variety of shaft and grip options available. Combined with the ability to tweak loft and lie, it allows the golfer to achieve their desired performance for every club in their bag.<\/p>\n
