    Not so surprised at clubs, but did anyone notice the “nails” on his shoes? And they’re not long spikes either.

    What is the loft gap between pw and 56? one or both have to be bent, correct?

    • OF

      Dec 3, 2016 at 4:00 pm

      PW is 49. Doubt it’s bent — more likely made in the loft he wanted it to be. Other wedges are the loft that’s stamped on there.

        Ok interesting, so 7 degrees gap in there, I guess that’s similar to the guys with pw and 54 when their pw is around 46 or so these days.

    Really struggling with accuracy…..might see a Nike driver
    in the bag by weeks end. Driver swing looks different, could be just me but seemed more comfortable with short swings.

    are those the shoes Kramer wore in the Seinfeld episode “Jimmy”?

    Hoping he does well, also hoping he doesn’t spray that
    TM driver 80 yards right like Camilo did all week in
    the last PGA tourney. He should be playing the 975D to put it in the short stuff 🙂 The Irons and Scotty be pure, hoping he plays good, good for golf.

    Curious to see what weight he’s using in the fairway wood shafts…wonder if he’ll use the full M2 line for all his woods like Rory.

  7. Matt

    Nov 30, 2016 at 6:46 pm

    A couple of observations
    – I’m surprised he’s carrying a driver. Pretty sure low and forward will still result in high and right.
    – Drop the 5 wood for a chipper.

            My hats off to Tiger, full respect for what he’s doing out there. I’m not a massive fan and probably wrote him off, BUT he looks great and NOW I really think he is a major contenDer once more. The por guy must have been to hell and back not knowing if he’d play competitive golf again! We’ll hone tiger 🙂

    I’m not much for watching golf as I’d rather be playing , however I will DVR tiger for this tourney. I’ve never been a fan of his but he is good for the game and the other players really do want him playing. Probably because they can kick his derriere…………NOW..

    Those irons look nothing like any Nikes

    • Jack

      ??? Nike VR Pros look just like Nike VR Pros. Sorry that they don’t exist in your universe.

      Tiger’s irons were hand ground by Mike Taylor at The Oven.

    I guess what I find most interesting is he’s gone to a 460cc adjustable driver and adjustable fairways. I guess even the most staunch traditionalist eventually have to give in.

    Are those metal spikes in his shoes?

    • Mark

      Nov 30, 2016 at 3:26 pm

      Was wondering the same thing. How many PGA Tour players are still playing metal spikes?

      • Chuck

        Nov 30, 2016 at 3:41 pm

        About 20%. It’s an estimate. But I actually spent a day at a tour event, near a tee where the players had to cross a concrete path. And I put a check on the pairing sheet for each hard-spike player.

        Tiger is an interesting case. A lot of the Nike shoes that he wears were never intended for hard spikes, and I believe that with hard spikes inserted in softer soles, they can be uncomfortable. I am an older player who began in hard spikes and never really wanted to switch. What we see in fact, is that Tiger hasn’t always used the latest and greatest new designs from Nike. Nothing against Nike, of course, but I feel certain that if Tiger didn’t have the big contract, he’d be wearing shoes that look more like Mickelson’s, than Speith’s.

        • Ws

          Nov 30, 2016 at 4:44 pm

          Except for the fact that when he supposedly broke his left leg he needed to switch to sneaker type shoes to make his ankles feel comfortable, so there goes your weak theory

        • Jack

          Nov 30, 2016 at 11:27 pm

          That doesn’t make any sense since he helped design his TW shoes to his specs. If he liked the classic style they would have come out with two versions of his TW shoes because those would still sell. BTW I’m in the classic shoe camp just not the steel spikes. Golf pants with sporty shoes is just so dad like.

        • Matto

          Dec 3, 2016 at 2:00 am

          Yeah sorry Chuck, that’s just way off. Tiger’s efforts to wear a shoe as close to Nike Roshe’s etc is well documented. Him wanting to wear a trad shoe ala what he used to wear or what Phil wears is not true at all.

  14. new stuff!!

    Nov 30, 2016 at 1:44 pm

    What’s going to make the difference is the Taylormade woods and the Cameron Newport 2. Looking forward to major #15 in 2017.

    • JOEL GOODMAN

      MAJOR? NOT EVEN A CAPTAIN………TIGER IS NOW AN ATTRACTION, NOT A FACTOR.

        THANKS FOR THE UPDATE, JOEL!

      • Matto

        SHOUT IT OUT LOUD & PROUD, JOEL!!! GOOD ON YOU, PAL!!!!!!

        Dec 3, 2016 at 9:41 pm

        GOOD CALL JOEL! Oops. Great use of the all caps for that extra bold statement as well. I think I hear your Mom calling you from upstairs, sounds like you need to finish your chores.

      • steve

        Dec 4, 2017 at 8:59 am

        an attraction and not a factor? I think he just showed after the weekend that he is a factor, you are way off, you just hit a snap hook with that comment 🙂

    • Lee

      Dec 1, 2016 at 3:55 am

      Agreed, but rumour has it he’s not come back so far because he’s had trouble with the ‘Yippy Chippy’ again – really hope not as this could well be game over.

    Traditional lofts on his irons?
    Pw at 48*-50*?

    • JOEL GOODMAN

      Nov 30, 2016 at 2:04 pm

      I’D GUESS AT 46 DEGREES.

      • Blade Junkie

        Nov 30, 2016 at 3:55 pm

        Joel, I doubt he’d leave a 10 degree gap to his 56

      • Lee

        Dec 1, 2016 at 3:47 am

        Tiger was always at 49 pw, 3 iron 23.

    • who cares`

      Nov 30, 2016 at 2:16 pm

      Traditional Lofts? Who Cares? I think the only thing you guys are missing is his underwear of choice, and which side his junk hangs. I will stay tuned!

          Dec 1, 2016 at 10:32 pm

          I said “Who Cares” about what loft his pitching wedge is. Not who cares about whats in the bag. keep up longballz!

    • CT

      Nov 30, 2016 at 3:08 pm

      He used to be at 50* PW back in his heyday. Probably stronger in the short irons in recent years

    • rymail00

      Nov 30, 2016 at 7:56 pm

      I thought I read on here a few times its 49* pw. I remember a posted screen shot awhile back of his club specs, and launch numbers from top to bottom of his bag, or something along the line of that.

      Who Cares? 99% of the people who contributed to these comments. If people don’t care then there’s not really any reason to respond to Thes things other than to just be a troll.

      Excited to see how TW plays, really hope he comes out and plays well.
