So it looks like he's ditch the long putter.

That driver shaft is crazy.

Absent the putter, always one of the nicest looking set of clubs.

I think he used this shaft all the way back to the 910 D3 days.

DRIVER

I play the Titleist 910D3 (9.5 degrees, A-1 setting, Graphite Design Tour AD DI-8 shaft, X-flex, tipped one inch, custom black paint, 44¾ inches). All my grips are Golf Pride Tour Velvet with one piece of masking tape under the double-sided tape.

Scotteggolf on Instagram shows video of him regripping a new Axis putter for Adam Scott

Rombax still going strong in Scott’s and Watney’s bags. Hope he has a good year.

Possible armlock?

tokeyb · Jan 22, 2019 8:27pm

Still gaming 680MB is inspiring. Love the wave/waffle aole on that first putter.

alecfeltman · Jan 22, 2019 8:51pm

back to the Rombax

He loves those blades

SirHoselRocket · Jan 22, 2019 10:10pm

Wow back to KBS..

theboypinoy · Jan 22, 2019 11:54pm

How many of those blades does he have in stock?

Is he going to come close to a Tommy Fleetwood situation?

Earlier this year Titleist had more made for their staff and then sold a limited number to the public. My shop had a set and I was inching closer to getting them until someone saved me and beat me to it.

I wonder if none of the newer blades perform as well or better than his 680 or that'st just a mental thing, can't play anything other than the 680.....

I go with the later....ego

The shape of the muscle makes a difference, not better or worse, just different.

The newer Titleist MBs starting with the 712s moved the muscle lower, this helps guys like me get higher launch. A guy like Adam gets that same launch from his swing speed.

Completely forgot about that release. Thanks for the reminder!

Actually from the pictures and bag shot it appears Scott is still using the two putter set-up he used at the end of the 2018 PGA Tour season.

The putter with the longer superstroke grip is definitely an armlock putter. Interesting that he’s trying out an axis1, too.

His choice of putters is odd considering he switched back to the long putter around the Open Championship last year and he had some great results nearly winning a major....but what do I know.

MattyO1984 · Jan 23, 2019 6:41am

Looks like he was testing an Axis1 as well. Scotty Cameron has produced some ugly looking putters recently but the two that Adam has in the bag from a head point of view anyway, both look fantastic. The first one reminds me of my old GoLo S5. That thing was stunning...just didn't suit my stroke.

That seems to be Scotty's thing these days. Never sticking with anything long enough to see that it works.

KrazyTrain18 · Jan 23, 2019 6:49pm

Sounds like he'll be going arm lock this week.

Short irons in the 680 are older style shapes. Bigger 8-Pw than say a 716mb. Also a touch of offset in the 680 short irons. Just different.

pgarob · Jan 24, 2019 6:36am

He's been gaming the 680s since late 2013 and is back to the same driver, fairway, and iron shafts from his 2013 Masters win.

Seriously hoping that it works! His outing in Hawaii left me needing a lot of convincing.

Golfingfanatic · Jan 24, 2019 4:35pm

Arm lock in the bag today. Also leaving the flag in on some putts.

Diamana_Stinger · Jan 24, 2019 11:06pm

Are the Rombax P95 shafts still available for purchase? or is it one of those things they have stock in the tour vans for the pros only?

trying2scratch · Jan 25, 2019 11:04am

Watched him finished the round yesterday with quite a few one puts. Looked like he was feeling more comfy.

According to the golfchannel story, he ditched the arm lock set up midway through the round. He went to using the claw style grip with the arm lock putter. Will be interested in seeing if he uses the same putter today. I imagine the arm lock version is pretty heavy with a lot more loft built in.

You cannot putt conventionally with an armlock putter. To me, it looks like he uses the same grip that Webb uses. Armlock+ claw grip

Haven't been able to watch him, but he's leaving it in on just some putts? I thought he mentioned he was going to do it on all putts

trying2scratch · Jan 25, 2019 6:38pm

Yes, he is using a similar style to Webb. Must have misread the info, but they made it sound like switched styles.

Rolled it nice today. And yes kept the flag in.

getgolfed · Jan 26, 2019 2:47pm

I would love to get an arm lock putter and use a right handed claw grip similar to Scott/Simpson. A bigger grip seems like it might help keep the club attached to the forearm too. Unfortunately getting fit for or finding arm lock options isn't exactly easy...and buying one off the rack is crazy considering the length, lie and loft issues of an arm lock putter
