SPOTTED: Adam Scott’s new custom Miura irons at THE 2023 PLAYERS Championship

Published

on

Last year, at the 2022 Memorial Tournament, Adam Scott unveiled a set of custom 1-of-1 irons that were made by Miura and stamped with Scott’s personal logo on them. Scott took an immediate liking to those irons. He put them right into play at the Memorial that week, and he’s continued using them ever since.

But that might change this week.

On Tuesday at The 2023 Players Championship, Scott received a new set of custom Miura irons. While they’re quite similar in appearance to his previous set – at least, from the looks of the back cavity and address positions – they have a bit more Miura branding this time around (the Miura “M” logo in black on the sole, and Katsuhiro Miura’s Hanko stamp on the cavity in red).

While we don’t yet know what’s different about these particular irons, aside from the aesthetics, we do know that they’re fresh out of the packaging on Tuesday at TPC Sawgrass. They were yet to be hit at the time of GolfWRX taking in-hand photos.

We’ll keep you updated on whether Scott puts them in play come Thursday, but for now, check out our in-hand photos of the irons below.

      Them things are mega offset, look at the kink at the hosel!

    So an honest gear question … years ago I believe Callaway introduced some irons with much shorter hosels, thereby allowing them to reposition that weight elsewhere. How come that idea didn’t seem to take hold and irons (especially wedges) still have such long hosels?

    P.S. These Miura’s are beautiful, but I’m sure I couldn’t hit them to save my life!

      It was a viable idea – unfortunately, the shafts would break a lot from those very short hosels, so they had to quit making them.
      Which is why there’s so much more attention being paid to move weights around and put the weight towards the toe with inserts and plugs instead.

        Ahhh … makes perfect sense. Thank you!

    Just goes to show that offset is not something to demonize or is limited to game improvement clubs… it is simply a design characteristic that will fit certain swings and attack positions better than a low/zero offset design iron will. Furyk talked about this years ago too as someone who enjoyed a healthy bit of offset in his irons and wedges.

    I’m not much for blade irons, but those irons at address look very nice.

Q&A: Martin Trainer on his Bobby Grace “Greg Chalmers” putter, 6.5-degree driver, and “butter knife” 2-iron

Published

on

As unbiasedly as I can put it, Martin Trainer has one of the coolest club setups in professional golf. (At some point soon, I’ll put together a top-10 list of “coolest club setups on Tour,” but I know that Trainer will be in the top-10)

What a lineup. He plays a 6.5-degree Wilson prototype driver, a 13-degree Wilson prototype 3-wood, a true blade Wilson Staff Model 2-iron, and a Bobby Grace “Greg Chalmers Commemorative” putter!

A post shared by GolfWRX (@golfwrx)

I mean, look at this 2-iron from address…

To quote the great author R.L. Stine: “Goosebumps.”

On Wednesday at the 2024 Texas Children’s Houston Open, I caught up with Trainer to learn more about his bag setup.

Here’s what he had to say:

You have the Internet going crazy over your bag setup, and your putter. Where’d you pick the Bobby Grace-Greg Chalmers putter up? How long have you had it?

MT: This was from when Bobby Grace came to my course in California: Cal Club. And for whatever reason, they just started having them in the shop. So then I took my buddy’s, started using it, and made, like, a million putts in a row, which is how every putter story begins, I guess.

And then, I bought a couple of my own, used it for years, got to the Tour with it, won on Tour with it (the 2019 Puerto Rico Open). Then, about a year later, started using another putter, did that for a couple years, but now it’s back in the bag.

When did it come back in the bag?

MT: December of this past year. So a few months ago.

What year would you say was the first time you threw that in the bag, or, like, when you bought it?

MT: God…Probably, 2016, maybe? 2018?

Do you remember how much you paid for it?

MT: I don’t know, actually. Maybe $100-150 bucks or something. I think that’s the only golf club I’ve bought between high school and now. Well, two, since I bought two of them.

The driver is interesting, too. What went into the prototyping process?

MT: That was a version of the current driver, but it was the prototype that they first came out with for Tour guys to try. And for whatever reason, I just never switched out to the new one.

It’s just 6.5 degrees, right?

MT: Yeah. Very low loft, yeah.

What kind of ball speed do you have with that these days?

MT: Like high 170’s.

Yeah, that’ll work. And then a 2-iron blade? We’re seeing fewer and fewer of those out here.

MT: Yeah. The butter knife.

Very cool thing to have in the bag. Have you done any testing with driving irons? 

MT: Yeah, I used to have a thicker one, but it was a little offset, and I never hit it that well. And then finally, I started messing around with the butter knife. And I remember the first time I looked down at it, I was terrified. And then I ended up getting used to it, putting it in play, and it’s been in place since. It’s a pretty good club for me.

How far do you carry that? 

MT: Like 235.

A good little wind club, I’m sure.

MTL Yeah, exactly. I can hit it very low. It’s great.

I love it. You have people shook looking at that. Thanks for the time, man. 

MT: Absolutely.
