Currently, in our GolfWRX buy/sell/trade (BST) forum, there is a listing for a set of Miura MC-502 iron heads.

From the seller (@GolfIsLife1): “$1800 shipped obo. Brand new. Never hit or seen a mat. Ordered and removed from stock shaft to put into my custom shaft and decided to go another route with something else. The MC501 pictured is not for sale and only there for reference. These are $350 per club ($2100) from Miura and take time to get. Standard loft and lie.”

Adam Scott makes 3 more big changes to his equipment setup at the Memorial

If you thought Adam Scott was slowing down on the equipment changes, you’d be wrong.

GolfWRX got the first look at the retail version of Adam Scott’s Miura AS-1 irons back at The 2023 Players Championship, but it wasn’t until this week at the 2023 Memorial Tournament that he actually put the new irons in the bag. He was previously using the original Miura prototype heads that, coincidentially, he first put into play at last year’s 2022 Memorial event. In exactly a year’s time, Scott replaced those prototype heads with the Miura AS-1 irons that were recently made available to the public.

This week, we also got an in-hand look at Scott’s new Srixon ZX Mk II driving iron, which he’s now equipping with a True Temper Dynamic Gold Tour Issue X100 shaft.

Additionally, Getty Images spotted Scott with a new TaylorMade BRNR Mini driver in the bag this week.

According to TaylorMade, Scott is using a Stealth 2 Plus driver in combination with a BRNR Mini this week, and he’s currently leading Strokes Gained: Off the Tee after the first round of the Memorial, where he shot a 2-under 70.

“The BRNR Mini driver went into the bag for Adam this week because of the golf course and the distance gap between his driver and 4-wood,” said Adrian Rietveld, TaylorMade Senior Tour Manager, according to TaylorMade. “At Muirfield, drivers run out and the gapping with his 4-wood left him too far behind. As he told us during testing, with BRNR Mini, he can play the golf course instead of the golf course playing him.”

The Adam Scott equipment-centric weekly reality show continues on, and it’s appointment television at this point. Check out what the GolfWRX Forum members are saying about Scott’s latest switches in our forums.
