Spotted: Amy Yang’s T.P. Mills Fleetwood putter

Published

on

This week, we spotted Amy Yang with a rare putter in her bag at the 2023 Walmart NW Arkansas Championship. The putter was made by legendary putter company T.P. Mills and the head shape is called “Fleetwood.” If you are not familiar with T.P. Mills, the company was founded in 1963 by Truett P. Mills, Sr. who wanted to make a better putter than what was available. His original putters were crafted with basic hand tools in his garage out of of carbon steel. His son David is now crafting the handmade putters after many years learning and working with his father. The company still offers the classic Softtail, Huey, Ming, 8802, and many more putters from his shop in Tuscaloosa, Alabama.

The Fleetwood is considered heel-shafted and has a wide flange that blurs the line between blade and mallet. Amy’s Fleetwood features a single sightline on the wide flange and some “snow” stamping on the top of the bumpers. Those bumpers flare up at the toe and heel, pushing weight to the outside for added stability and a balanced feel throughout the stroke. The large back cavity has some snow stamping above “My Wand” text that is stamped and filled with white paint. The topline looks slightly rounded for a softer look and blends in nicely with the width of the putter. A half-shaft offset flow neck is welded to the head while the face features a shallow milling pattern and unique “Mills” stamping near the heel.

The “Super Bullet” sole contains a large oval cavity where material is removed to dial in the desired head weight of the putter. This main cavity is in combination with two additional round cavities out at the toe and heel area. Yang’s Fleetwood is milled from Swiss-German stainless steel, as that is what is stamped into the center of the sole.

A traditional chrome steel shaft is installed and the putter is finished off with a Rosemark 1.52 MFS (microfiber silicone) putter grip in a white and teal.

    Gosh that Fleetwood is sick and makes me want another one.

    I think I have owned 3-4 Fleetwood’s over the years.

    The toe hang is a lot, but man they are soft!!

Tommy Fleetwood makes a surprising TaylorMade Spider customization

Published

on

Tommy Fleetwood has a growing collection of TaylorMade Spider putters. We shall wait to see if the newest options go into play, but they definitely has a fun twist to it.

Ahead of the 2026 Memorial Tournament at Muirfield Village Golf Club, the team at TaylorMade gifted the FedExCup champion with his very own custom Spider putter, featuring some nifty details from his winning gamers last year.

While from a distance, the putters may look like your standard blacked-out Spider Tour and also the new torched PVD version, the ones that found its way to Fleetwood in Dublin, Ohio, feature custom laser-etched alignment lines on the topline of each putter, which are an exact replica of the hand-drawn Sharpie marks that TaylorMade Tour putter Rep James Holley drew onto the putter with which Fleetwood won the FedExCup.

No mathematical equations were made to evenly distribute the alignment aid this time, either, and on closer inspection, it’s possible to see the imperfections of what the permanent marker lines looked like when the team scanned and then used a laser to etch onto the putter head.

What’s interesting about the custom putters is that the markings found on the heads are actually not the original version that Holley first drew onto Fleetwood’s flatstick. Over time, they had changed slightly since Holley had to reapply the Sharpie, and had changed technique to stop the ink from smudging.

However, there is a copy of the first attempt from Fleetwood’s special alignment aid, and it’s found on a custom Winston Collection headcover, which the team had made specifically for the Englishman.

On the sole plate of Fleetwood’s black Spider Tour putter is a laser-engraved logo of the FedExCup, an ode to Fleetwood’s biggest triumph in golf so far, using that style of flatstick.

Fleetwood initially tested his custom lines when Holley first drew them at the RBC Heritage to match another style of Spider Fleetwood had tested prior.

“So Tommy, we started with the ZT, and that ZT we have kind of that top milling on the front with that, and he really liked that top milling, how that kind of framed the ball,” Holley told GolfWRX last year, when Fleetwood first played the hand-drawn alignment aid. “You know he uses his special ball, where the orange lines create that single path … so the milling kind of lined up well with that when he lines up the ball. We took a regular Tour, short slant putter that was completely blank, and I pulled out the Sharpie and did my best to kind of draw some stuff on there for him, and he liked it.”

It’s not the first time the team has given Fleetwood the option of his custom alignment aid in an engraved version, but Fleetwood had told them that he did not like the previous lines on the new putters because they were too perfect.

Neal Shipley, AKA, the “Big Fridge’s,” custom stamping

Published

on

Neal Shipley was the first to admit that he enjoyed his food while in college. But since his days at Ohio State, he’s slimmed down and earned a PGA Tour Card.

That hasn’t stopped him from having fun with his wedge stampings, though it’s led to some misunderstandings.

On the 54 (degree), we have ‘Big Fudge,'” Shipley told GolfWRX. “It was supposed to be ‘Big Fridge,’ so this happened a little while ago. ‘Big Fridge’ was a nickname between my college teammates and I, with ‘fridge’ meaning stomach, a big stomach.

“We told the Ping guys to put … ‘Big Fridge’ on it, and I think maybe some bad cell service or something, and they thought I said ‘fudge,’ so they put fudge on it.”

On Shipley’s 50-degree he also continues the food theme, this time with his go-to order at the “Golden Arches,” and his stamping “DONS 7.”

“The number 7 meal, the two cheeseburger meal, that was my McDonald’s order, back when I would have McDonald’s frequently,” Shipley shared.

Check out Shipley’s full what’s in the bag and the rest of his wedge stampings here on “Inside the Ropes” from Colonial.
