What are these?! Justin Rose posts mysterious custom “JR” irons on Instagram
Update 11/1, 4:30 p.m. ET: Rose confirmed via Instagram DM the irons are Miura and were built for him by Custom Golf Works at Gatwick Golf Studio, the company who handles all his club building.
Since 2020, when Justin Rose became an equipment free agent (aside from his putter deal with Axis1), the Englishman has used and tested a number of different iron models. In recent years, GolfWRX has spotted Rose with TaylorMade P730 irons, Mizuno MP-20 irons, TaylorMade P7MC irons, and Titleist 620 MB irons.
Well, it appears that another iron set might make it into his bag soon.
On Halloween on Monday, Rose took to his Instagram story to tease a new, custom set of blade-style “JR” irons.

Based on Instagram comments from our GolfWRX followers, the early predictions are that either Miura Golf (the company that makes Adam Scott’s custom-logo’d irons), or Artisan Golf (the company that makes Charl Schwartzel’s custom irons) manufactured the mysterious JR irons.
Since Rose has not officially confirmed the manufacturer, the Halloween irons remain a mystery for now, but we are working to confirm details. Head to our Instagram page to check out the irons for yourself, and we’ll update you with more photos and information as soon as possible.
