Maybe he lost a bet or something and can't mention anything about it.

XX is really just an X tipped. Why tip and X and compromise the tips structural integrity when you can just make a XX?

What is the deal with the stache? Serioulsy. I'm a Fowler fan, not die hard or anything, but I appreciate the fact he seems to have a good head on his shoulders. To me, that goes further than any skill you may posses on the course. Either way, he looks horrid with that thing. Maybe he did lose a bet, and isn't speaking of it. Perhaps something along the lines of 'give me two years, and after that, I'll have a stache until I post a W in the states.'

I can see him and Bubba making a bet like that.

There are many standards...oxymoron really...on what company builds what cpm and throws X on it.  Not sure what benefit some of the tour guys find from switching all the time?!

I don't see the big deal with shafts that don't flex exactly like shafts from other companies or even from the same company.  Seems to me that's the point.  You have a spectrum of flexes and flex profiles to fit more players.  The more uniformity, the less golfers will find the perfect shaft for them.  Demo and pick the one that fits your club head and golf ball.

I do what I can....
Seriously, I think Rickie is a good dude, and a good ambassador for the game, but he had to lose a bet....There is no one that says, "Dude your Stache looks awesome...I wish I could grow one like it"
Now Johnson Wagner is a whole 'notha level...

This is the Mitsubishi shaft that Rickie used in his fairway wood to win the Wells Fargo in a three way play-off.

So the $720 shaft may have something to do with why he liked the I20 3 Wood
