Is Louie hitting a TM 3 wood today?  His 3 wood is white so I know it's not a ping.  They said he is crushing it.

Yeah it looked like it. He hit it farther than Mahans driver on 18 but Mahan was just going for accuracy.

The few camera close ups I saw, the shaft logos looked like TI X100s.

Dude is hitting an RBZ 17.7 degree that far? Wow.

Yeah he crushes the ball.  Quite amazing for someone his stature. I like this guy.  I'm glad Bubba won but I wouldn't have been upset if Louis had gotten a jacket.  He seems like such a nice guy.

Pretty sure the color of the shaft was indeed blue..

Louis was using an i20 driver the previous month in Florida.

Wonder what made him switch to the Rapture V2 for Augusta?  Maybe the stability and forgiveness of it?  I'd love to get one of those heads and tinker with a few shafts on it.

[The Gachet]

Yeah he obviously became very comfortable with the Rapture V2 using it for the majority of the past three years previously using an original Rapture and a G5.

As below he did also use a G10 and an i15 in 2009 but quickly reverted back to the V2.

[jonn443]

Is that 17.7 a 5 wood or 4 wood? also I wonder if its a double stamp

I like when pros keep it old school and stick with what works.

[SweetTeaGolfer]

Any idea if he hard steps his X100 at all?

[Four Brothers Golf]

I've never like those PING wedges.

I'm down with this too. Especially when it's the same I have in my bag. V2 with PX is SO good!

I think it's funny how he said that if there was fire and he had to save one club it would be the Nike 5 wood!
