Interesting he has CB's for the longer irons. Figured he would stick with blades all the way through like his 712s. Wonder if he is going to a method or staying with the scotty. Also wonder if Nike is going to do a special run of shoes, shirt and accessories like TW has. Maybe not initially but in the near future.

May be a little off but I thought he played a titleist driving iron for his lowest iron?  Nike doesn't make one so a CB for that iron would make sense.  I would imagen he sticks with his current putter until it stops working.  Nike would rather have him play well using someone else's putter than play bad using there's.

I'm guessing the CB is a 2i, but then there's the 5w so who knows. I figrued his 2i would be a VRS Forged like TW...

If I count correctly I see three wedges of 46, 54 and I assume 60 degrees plus 8 irons. One of those irons is a CB, so I'm assuming 3-pw in blades and a CB 2 iron?

+1 It looks like only one cb which would make sense. Now let's get those covers off!

Hmmmm still has the Scotty cover. Wonder how long that'll stay in play.

Edit - Apparently he has 2 putters in the bag. A new method and his Scotty. Unsure what he'll bag when the season starts.

Apparently he's using a Covert Non-Tour driver, according to another thread on here.

Slightly surprised that he's immediately gone to the 20XI-X ball. Thought he might have stayed using the PRO V a little longer.

The golfcentraldaily article that the pics come from says the wedges are 46, 50 & 54 degrees, though I'd be a little surprised if 54 was his most lofted. (Edit - must be a typo in the artcle, in the WITB list at the bottom he states 46, 54 and 60 as expected.)

Definitely no surprises except for maybe the non tour covert. Very interested to see how he does this year!

It doesn't specifically sat the driver isn't a tour, but I wouldn't be surprised. He did hit a D2 for a while and that covert tour looks much more compact than his D3. It's interesting to see those VRS headcovers from last year's model.

Remember that according to Nike 60% of their tour players are playing the Performance Covert.

I am an old man, but I am kind of excite!

What shaft is playing?!

I think he sticks with the Cameron until it stops finding the hole + Im pretty sure the general golfing public will assume its a nike putter. I do think he will have a Nike Putter Headcover though.

Found two pics on Twitter of Rorys new set up!

Nike VR II Pro blades, Pro Combo cavity back long iron, a 3 and 5 fairway wood. Also there are 46, 50 and 54 “Rors” stamped wedges, and a Covert Driver.

Enjoy

It shocks me that he doesn't have the VR Pro LE 3,5 woods although he may just have the VR_S head covers over them. I figured his bag would look something like this anyways but now it's just official.

Great pics. It will be interesting to see which one he plays with. The method is a great putter, the retail version just needs a little more weight to it. Nike is making a come back I beleive with equipment and pros theres just a couple of things they need and I think they could increase their retail sales. Method needs adjustable weights or more weight to it (see proto pictures from sony) and a set of irons that are similar to ap2 etc... where they dont look like shovels, feel better than the pro-combos, but offer more help than their blades.

I'm surprised by the performance covert driver and the CBs in his irons.
