Also, here are photos of TaylorMade prototype irons we spotted on the range at The Memorial earlier in 2015.

Rickie Fowler’s new putter: Standard-length Odyssey Jailbird 380 in custom orange
Editor’s note: This is an excerpt from a piece our Andrew Tursky originally wrote for PGATour.com’s Equipment Report. Head over there for the full article.
…The Jailbird craze hasn’t really slowed down in 2024, either. According to Odyssey rep Joe Toulon, there are about 18-20 Jailbird putter users on the PGA TOUR.
Most recently, Akshay Bhatia won the 2024 Valero Texas Open using a broomstick-style Odyssey Jailbird 380 putter and Webb Simpson is switching into a replica of that putter at the 2024 Wells Fargo Championship.
Now, Fowler, who essentially started the whole Jailbird craze, is making a significant change to his putter setup.
Fowler, who has had a couple weeks off since the 2024 RBC Heritage, started experimenting with a new, custom-orange Jailbird 380 head that’s equipped with a standard 35-inch putter build, rather than his previous 38-inch counter-balanced setup.
According to Fowler, while he still likes the look and forgiveness of his Jailbird putter head, he’s looking to re-incorporate more feel into his hands during the putting stroke.
He told GolfWRX.com on Tuesday at the Wells Fargo Championship that the 38-inch counterbalanced setup “served its purpose” by helping him to neutralize his hands during the stroke, but now it’s time to try the standard-length putter with a standard-size SuperStroke Pistol Tour grip to help with his feel and speed control.
Although Fowler was also spotted testing standard-length mallets from L.A.B. Golf and Axis1 on Tuesday, he confirmed that the custom Odyssey Jailbird 380 is the putter he’ll use this week at the 2024 Wells Fargo Championship.

They kind of look like the Mizuno MP-15 or the new Mizuno JPX-EZ Forged.

Hmmm from the range pics looks like no under cut cavity. Is the face maybe welded to the body.
They look good a little like AP2s. Another TM iron hits the market.
I don’t really hate TM but you would think they read all the negative comments about how fast they come out with new gear every few months. It does make me wonder what’s so new now?
Plasma filled head?

When you say “another”, are you referring to last year’s offering? Not including Titleist, is there a company in the industry that does not release a new iron every year? “How fast they come out with new gear every few months”? Does few mean 12 to you? Why bother posting when what you are saying does not make any sense? If the author(s) of the negative comments actually made sense, perhaps TM would choose to listen.

The questions you have to ask yourself are these… Does it really take two years to come up with new tech? Is coming up with new irons on a 2 year cycle a marketing ploy aimed at making people believe they put so much more effort and care into their product? Do all companied have the same amount of people employed in their R&D departments and thus have the same amount of resources for developing new irons, drivers, etc.? Will a two year or 6 month product cycle really have an impact on wether or not you like something and wether or not it will work for you? If you answer yes to that last question you are actually buying into one of the marketing schemes from one of those companies wether you believe you are or not.
Disclaimer*** i am a current Callaway player at the moment however i have played TM, Mizuno, Callaway and Titleist clubs in the last 5 years.

The graphite looking badges on the rear will pair well with the new driver. Looks ok to me.
