The TaylorMade Tour Trailer that spent five years traveling to PGA Tour events across the USA between 2003-8 was recently refurbished before arriving at its permanent home at the Kingdom at Reynolds Plantation. On the day of arrival, the driver had a challenging time in navigating the 22-ton trailer down a steep hill and had to turn it 180 degrees in a narrow area to create its final resting place on a concrete pad.
