Published

on

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 ironsMizuno MP-20 ironsTaylorMade 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.

Spotted: Nate Lashley’s Ping PLD “Wolverine” putter

Published

on

Ping PLD putters have been a very common site on profesional tours. Pros seem to gravitate toward the PLD line’s custom options and precision milling. We have seen the PLD line expanded over the years, but we haven’t seen too many, if any, large mallets.

This week we spotted a PLD putter in Nate Lashley’s bag that has a similar look to the old Ping Wolverine head shape. This putter is a large mallet with the famous “claws” on the outside and oval center that housed the alignment aid.

Nick’s putter has the PLD logo on the back but also looks like it might have an insert installed on the face. It is hard to tell but at the address picture, it looks like the face is a lighter material than the rest of the putters. The putter is center-shafted and should be face-balanced with a high MOI for stability and forgiveness on mishits. The sole is completely milled and has no markings of name or technologies that might be present in the head. A single white site line is on the top of the putter for alignment.

Nick’s putter is finished off with a chrome steel shaft and a Super Stroke Zenergy Flatso 2.0 grip in black and white.
