Project X launches HZRDUS T1100 shafts

Published

on

Project X’s T1100 is currently one of the hottest shafts on the PGA Tour, as well the newest member of the company’s HZRDUS graphite shaft family — and starting today it’s available at a custom club fitter near year.

Project X’s Don Brown describes the T1100 shaft as “the ultimate spin killer for players with the most aggressive tempo.” The shafts get their name from the T1100G fiber used in their construction. Brown calls T1100G “the strongest fiber available,” and it’s used to create a stiff bend profile throughout each shaft that encourages a low-launching, low-spinning trajectory.

All T1100 shaft are handcrafted in the company’s R&D facility in San Diego with a counter-balanced design that allows golfers to add more club length or head weight to improve ball speed. They use what Project X calls an “ultra-premium brilliant, high reflective finish” that takes four days to apply.

Dustin Johnson, winner of this week’s Genesis Open and the No. 1-ranked golfer in the Official World Golf Rankings, is currently using a tour-only, 95-gram version of the HZRDUS T1100 shaft in his 3 wood (See DJ’s full WITB).

The HZRDUS T1100 ($450 each) is currently available in two weights (65 and 75 grams) and three flexes: 5.5, 6.0 and 6.5.

    Yeah right, sign me and my 20 hdcp. up for the over 75 gram “Tour Only” version. I mean, me and

    my internet warrior near tour swing needs all the carry I can get, especially with soggy fairways

    as Riviera had. Got to keep up with D.J. when I play those back tees! These companies are killing

    me these jillion dolls’ shafts for hacks like me! Where’s a 90’s era Callaway “firm” shaft when ya

    need it? Good luck marketing these during fitting sessions!

      Same materials as GD shafts. Really for 115 ss+ with a fast transition, so everyone on wrx needs one.

    Again, no retail shafts heavier than 75g. No sale from me.

      DJ carries 320 yds with a 68g shaft and you need more than 75g. Sure, bud.

        Well yeah, but we both need the heavier ones for our fairway woods. Duh

Putter Roundup: 2024 Zurich Classic of New Orleans

Published

on

We always get some great photos of some phenomenal putters at tour events and love to share them. Here are a few from the 2024 Zurich Classic that caught our eye and seemed interesting. (And as a reminder, you can check out all our photos from New Orleans here)

MJ Daffue’s Scotty Cameron T-11 Prototype

MJ is going with the new Scotty Cameron T-11 Prototype this week. The putter is a multi-piece mallet that puts an emphasis on stability with the wings on the back. Daffue’s putter does have a design that differs from retail with a monotone finish, which eliminates the black paint on the aluminum parts that we see at retail. He also has a half siteline milled into the top and an L-neck welded on for some additional toe hang. The face features a deeper milling that should offer a softer feel and slightly quieter sound.

Scotty Cameron T-7.5 Prototype

We spotted a few different Scotty Cameron Phantom models with modified rear flanges. It looks like the straight black flange was cut into a half circle for a little softer look at address. On this T-7.5, you can still see the raw aluminum from the back view, so this might have been a last-minute job to get them out on tour. The semi-circle also has a white line on it, maybe to frame the ball differently.

Alex Fitzpatrick’s Bettinardi SS16 DASS

Alex’s SS16 is made from Bettinardi’s famous D.A.S.S., or double-aged stainless steel, for a softer and more responsive feel. The face has a unique diamond pattern milling and features a logo that I feel like I have seen before, but can’t put a name to. The putter is a classic mid-mallet style with a simple, single white siteline on the top. The sole is clean with just the SS16, DASS, and a green triangle logo on it.

Steve Stricker’s Odyssey White Hot No. 2

This putter has made some amazing putts in its long career! Stricker’s White Hot No. 2 might be in the top 10 of most famous putters in golf. When you see all the dents and lead tape, you know the heel will be up and it will be sinking putts! The soft White Hot insert looks to be in good shape and has less wear on it than the rest of the putter. We don’t know how much lead tape is on the sole, but it has to be multiple layers compacted down over the years.

Doug Ghim’s Scotty Cameron T-7 Prototype

This T-7 should win the award for “best color finish” in this list with its deep chromatic bronze. It looks like Scotty added a cherry bomb dot to the heel of the deep-milled face and filled it with a very dark blue paint. The rest of the putter looks pretty stock with its single site line on the topline and twin site lines down the “fangs” of the putter. Twin 5-gram weights are installed in the sole and the putter is finished off with a gloss black double bend shaft with a fill shaft offset.

Spotted: Project X Denali hybrid shaft

Published

on

Project X’s Denali wood shafts have been seen in more and more golf bags this year as we start off the season. As a refresher, Denali Blue is the mid-launch and mid-spin model while Denali Black is for players seeking lower launch and spin.

Denali combines great feel with stability and increased ball speed. Currently, Project X only offers Denali Blue and Black in wood shafts, but we spotted a hybrid shaft in Daniel Berger’s bag at the 2024 Zurich Classic.

The shaft looks to be a Denali Blue 105G – HY in TX flex. No word on details from Project X yet but we can assume that this is a mid-launching shaft that weighs around 105 grams in Tour X-Stiff flex.

Berger has this shaft in his TaylorMade P770 3-iron, likely for some added launch and spin to hold the green from longer distances.

Hopefully, this means we will see some more shafts coming under the Denali name in the future, as I think many of us would like to try one in a hybrid or utility iron!
