What are the best Tiger Woods shoes of all time? – #TigerTuesdays

Published

As part of our new ‘Tiger Tuesdays’ weekly content, we created some Tiger Tuesdays forum threads to get feedback from WRXers on some hot topics relating to the 15-time major champion Tiger Woods.

Last week we asked our members: ‘What are the best Tiger Woods shoes of all time?’, and WRXers have been having their say on the matter over the last seven days.

Undoubtedly, the most popular response from our members has been the TW13 model. But there’s been plenty of love for both the TW14 and TW15, while some underrated gems have received a mention too.

Here’s what our members have been saying about what they feel are the best Tiger Woods shoes of all time:

  • str8up: “TW13 is winning this like Secretariat!”
  • Chappie: “The TW ‘13’s were probably the first tiger shoes I truly “liked” from a design aesthetic standpoint and they were comfy as **** to boot. They get my vote.”
  • tmac7592: “Tw 13 and 14 hands down. Then the TW shoe that never was the tour premiere.”
  • Chief Illiniwek: “I still wear both the 13’s and 14’s as my main golf shoes. I think I have 9 total pairs. The 13’s are the most comfortable, but the 14’s win all the other major categories. They look better, are more waterproof and yet more breathable somehow, and they are more stable. I give the nod to the 14’s, but I’m happy in either shoe.”
  • osubass: “I think it’s pretty clear that the TW13 is the consensus favorite, but the SP8 TW Tour ranks right up there for me. My second favorite has to be the extremely underrated TW2009.”
  • jaredt22: “A lot of talk about the 13’s and 14’s, which are nice, but my favorite pair are the grey TW15’s. I’m still rocking them, and they are very comfortable, a must since I, mostly, walk.”
  • jjleyes: “Clearly I’m in the minority here, and I’ll preface this by saying I’ve never owned a pair of TW shoes (I’m an ECCO guy). When I first saw TW wearing the ‘13 model, I said to myself (and maybe out loud) those are the ugliest golf shoes I’ve ever seen him wear. They must be comfy, cause I still think they are hideous. But he paved the way for Nike to make more running shoe like golf shoes, I’ll give him that. My favourite looking TW shoes are the SP-8’s, all white, with the “ghost swoosh”. Pure class.”
  • 2012BFT: “I love the TW15… I wish I could get another pair of the Grey!”
  • richardbegun: “For me its hands down the TW 14. I still rock those.”
  • fredstar: “I liked the SP7.5. Still wear the 13 and 14 regularly.”
  • soap1984: “Tw 13 by a mile.”
  • Flagrant: “The TW13’s are quite the best looking and most durable shoe of all time. By far my favorite. Retro them! The TW 14 are the 2nd best for similar reasons. The Tw15’s were good as well, although after one season the greys were completely trashed. The mesh didn’t survive the all the green **** they spray on the Bethpage Black course. If you follow them, there’s a small cult following on these shoes, pairs listed on eBay for crazy prices with the obnoxious prices for the 13 Masters releases being the highest.”

The TW13 shoe is certainly the most popular amongst our members, but you can have your say on the topic here.

We’re also running plenty more Tiger polls and surveys as part of our ‘Tiger Tuesdays’, and we want your views on the following topics:

    i own 1857 footjoy golf shoes and i have had a share of ecco shoes. i have to say that the tw 1 were uniquely durable, comfortable, stable and maintained very well. i know they don’t look very good with pants but they are good shoes.

    I wonder what Tigers favorite Sox are, and does he even wear sox. How about his underwear, is it Boxers or Briefs, From what I have read from his squad of floozie waitresses he does not need a Kangaroo pouch in the shorts though. How about an article on that. Does he endorse Trojans another brand, or nothing. Inguiring minds want to know these important things. Ridiculous.

Rickie Fowler’s new putter: Standard-length Odyssey Jailbird 380 in custom orange

Published

Editor’s note: This is an excerpt from a piece our Andrew Tursky originally wrote for PGATour.com’s Equipment Report. Head over there for the full article. 

…The Jailbird craze hasn’t really slowed down in 2024, either. According to Odyssey rep Joe Toulon, there are about 18-20 Jailbird putter users on the PGA TOUR.

Most recently, Akshay Bhatia won the 2024 Valero Texas Open using a broomstick-style Odyssey Jailbird 380 putter and Webb Simpson is switching into a replica of that putter at the 2024 Wells Fargo Championship.

Now, Fowler, who essentially started the whole Jailbird craze, is making a significant change to his putter setup.

Fowler, who has had a couple weeks off since the 2024 RBC Heritage, started experimenting with a new, custom-orange Jailbird 380 head that’s equipped with a standard 35-inch putter build, rather than his previous 38-inch counter-balanced setup.

According to Fowler, while he still likes the look and forgiveness of his Jailbird putter head, he’s looking to re-incorporate more feel into his hands during the putting stroke.

He told GolfWRX.com on Tuesday at the Wells Fargo Championship that the 38-inch counterbalanced setup “served its purpose” by helping him to neutralize his hands during the stroke, but now it’s time to try the standard-length putter with a standard-size SuperStroke Pistol Tour grip to help with his feel and speed control.

Although Fowler was also spotted testing standard-length mallets from L.A.B. Golf and Axis1 on Tuesday, he confirmed that the custom Odyssey Jailbird 380 is the putter he’ll use this week at the 2024 Wells Fargo Championship.
