It's a bit subtle and I hardly noticed myself. Recently, the photo used as the header for the Tour posts here on the FJ site has changed from Camillo to Adam Scott. No irony or coincidence there at all, given the recently announced defection.
But it made me wonder.... why Scott? There are a bunch of wonderful candidates who are 100% committed to FJ/Titleist. Could pick Zach, Steve, Nick, Ross, or Davis. Heck, DLIII has been using Titleist his whole career, so why not him as a tribute to one of the game's finest.
Just wondering....
i noticed it but didn't think to much about it. the removal of camillo is derseved as he no longer is part of the FJ family. i think it would be kind of cool to see the pic changed every time a new FJ winner takes a tournament. put the new winner up there until another FJ player wins a tournament and then change it honoring the latest FJ champion.
+1 Randy.
I think it would be great to see DLIII in the photo. He has been a geat player and ambassador to the sport for many years.
Good idea beej. Maybe that will catch on.But in the interim, I would like to see DL111on the photo. Great tribute to one who is a true FJfan.

+1 Beej, great idea!
beej and eagle. I like the idea, but some of those guys wear FJ shoes but have primary sponsorships with other companies. Take Lee Westwood for example. Not sure the Karsetn family wants to see LW on the FJ web pages for a week.
This is why sponsor deals are so complicated. How to manage all the competing factors is really tough, and the legalities are complex. Subsequently. you end up going generic or doing nothing at all.
I say go DLIII. Been a lifer at FJ.
Randy, wasn't LW on the FJ mainpage when he won?
I can't speak for the Karsten Corporation, but for the most part, I haven't seen any issues in the past from them reguarding a product that they don't produce such as balls and shoes.
Probably to try to get more ladies to join the community! HAHAAHAH
I hate sponsorship deals...I wear FJ because they make they right shoe for me. I play taylormade driver woods and irons because they work for me, I prefer titleist wedges because they work for me, I prefer Scotty putters because they work for me. I am not paid to play these clubs or wear FJ and I play and wear them because they are worth my money.
I understand why they sign these deals: the benefits are amazing. But it does handcuff them when it comes to the idea putting someone like Westwood on FJ when they wear FJ but have other sponsor issues.
Hi everyone,
To be frank, we really just liked the image of Adam! I understand all of the reasoning for featuring a different player and perhaps we'll rotate it, this was just a very clean image of a recognizable FJ Ambassador clearly displaying the FJ logo on his lid.
So DL3 seems to be the favorite for the next rotation?
Chris
Perhaps something like..
Oh yeah...
Hat, glove and club....
And the Carolina Blue grips, just like mine!
heel, are you sure you didn't photo-shop those grips?
nah, the shirt would have been done as well, RIGHT?
Adam Scott has come so close in so many tournaments this year!
its just great to have so many FJ players out there winning! Like I've said before..when you look your best, using the best, you play the best! Winner!
