Spotted: True Temper Dynamic Gold 120 shafts

Published

on

We spotted new iron shafts from True Temper, called Dynamic Gold 120, on the range of the 2017 Honda Classic on Monday. The number “120” refers to the weight of the shafts, making them lighter than the company’s line of Dynamic Gold shafts (for comparison, check out those specs here).

In an Instagram post, the company confirmed that the shafts are designed to produce the same launch and spin as the company’s ever-popular Dynamic Gold shafts, but are built to be lighter for those players who desire that feel.

As a reminder, the graphic below from True Temper’s website shows for whom the Dynamic Gold shafts are designed.

    Don’t they have a DG SL in their lineup? Or is this an inbetween model?

    Meh. KBS, Nippon and Project X have already done lightweight “tour” shafts. Call me when they release a DG150.

    The labeling graphics are totally obnoxious. Horrendous. Hideous. They should have kept with the small, stylish label like all their other DG shafts, but just updated.

      Sweet…do you hit equipment for how it looks or how it preforms and feels???

        Duh. This is WRX. Who the hell cares about performance? It’s all about the looks! Otherwise we wouldn’t even have this website. If looks didn’t matter we wouldn’t need this site for photos. Duh

      Some are just sticker labels you can peel off.

    They need to do this, but also offer them as ascending weight just as the AMT are.

    KBS beat them to the punch on this one.

      However, KBS is a totally different flex pattern though. I like the KBS 120 but for me it is a little more difficult to control than the standard dynamic gold S300.

Inside Collin Morikawa’s recent golf ball, driver, 3-wood, and “Proto” iron changes

Published

on

As you probably know by now, Collin Morikawa switched putters after the first round of The Masters, and he ultimately went on to finish T3.

The putter was far from the only change he made last week, however, and his bag is continuing to change this week at the 2024 RBC Heritage.

On the range of The Masters, Morikawa worked closely with Adrian Reitveld, TaylorMade’s Senior Manager of Tour at TaylorMade, to find the perfect driver and 3-wood setups.

Morikawa started off 2024 by switching into TaylorMade’s Qi10 Max driver, but since went back to his faithful TaylorMade SIM – yes, the original SIM from 2020. Somehow, some way, it seems Morikawa always ends up back in that driver, which he used to win the 2020 PGA Championship, and the 2021 Open Championship.

At The Masters, however, Rietveld said the duo found the driver head that allowed “zero compromise” on Morikawa’s preferred fade flight and spin. To match his preferences, they landed on a TaylorMade Qi10 LS 9-degree head, and the lie angle is a touch flatter than his former SIM.

“It’s faster than his gamer, and I think what we found is it fits his desired shot shape, with zero compromise” Rietveld told GolfWRX.com on Wednesday at the RBC Heritage.

Then, to replace his former SIM rocket 3-wood, Morikawa decided to switch into the TaylorMade Qi10 core model 13.5-degree rocket head, with an adjustable hosel.

“He likes the spin characteristics of that head,” Rietveld said. “Now he’s interesting because with Collin, you can turn up at a tournament, and you look at his 3-wood, and he’s changed the setting. One day there’s more loft on it, one day there’s less loft on it. He’s that type of guy. He’s not scared to use the adjustability of the club.

“And I think he felt our titanium head didn’t spin as low as his original SIM. So we did some work with the other head, just because he liked the feel of it. It was a little high launching, so we fit him into something with less loft. It’s a naughty little piece of equipment.” 

In addition to the driver and fairway wood changes, Morikawa also debuted his new “MySymbol” jersey No. 5 TP5x golf ball at The Masters. Morikawa’s choice of symbols is likely tied to his love of the Los Angeles Dodgers baseball team.

Not enough changes for you? There’s one more.

On Wednesday at the 2024 RBC Heritage, Morikawa was spotted with a new TaylorMade “Proto” 4-iron in the bag. If you recall, it’s the same model that Rory McIlroy debuted at the 2024 Valero Texas Open.

According to Morikawa, the new Proto 4-iron will replace his old P-770 hollow-bodied 4-iron.

“I used to hit my P-770 on a string, but sometimes the distance would be a little unpredictable,” Morikawa told GolfWRX.com. “This one launches a touch higher, and I feel I can predict the distance better. I know Rory replaced his P-760 with it. I’m liking it so far.”
