Bubba Watson WITB shot at the 2015 PGA Championship

[GolfWRX]

[kiw1982]

His driver's headcover has been changed.

Thanks for the pics!

[Golfingfanatic]

Love the finish on the putter

[QMany]

I have been out of the loop. I thought he went D-4W, not D-3W-7W.

Great stuff, Greg!

Bubba, Billy Ho, & Oosthuizen are the only 7 wood users I can think of, and they're all Ping staffers. Do the other tour vans not carry many 7 woods or is it a coincidence?

Miguel Angel Jimenez plays a 7 wood

seems like ping staffers are the main people who play them.

Camilo plays or used to play a 5wHL which is essentially a 7 wood.

[chill122292]

he would be such a cool guy to root for if he were a cool guy

[falken19150]

Great shots. Thank you.

[prorobo]

Love the custom paint on Bubba's fairway Speeders.

I don't believe that Billy Ho plays a 7 wood. He has been using the same G25 5 wood for a long time. To fill the gap on that end of the bag, he then moves up to 3 iron and then to 5 through PW, plus three Glide wedges. Seems like more and more guys are taking out the 4 iron and jumping from 3 iron to 5 iron. I assume they tweak the lofts of those two clubs to bring the gapping closer.

It's unfair how far this guy hits the ball with such a weird wild swing...I'd actually follow and like him if it wasn't for his attitude, personality,visor, and especially buttoning his top button on EVERY golf shirt.

[pu_golf88]

I love that putter finish

[WVP]

Garrigus was playing a 7W last year also.

Correct on Horschel

[Pert1862]

That putter is amazing. I need one.

Never liked Bubba, Lost any respect when he chose to repaint the roof of his General Lee due to peer pressure.

[Ti-Père BBQ]

Love that new driver headcover !

[falken19150]

Wish we had pics of the club faces also. I know beggars can't be choosers, but its interesting to see how the clubs wear.

I don't know about that. Maybe he repainted it so he will not make anyone feel uneasy. Whether we like it or not, some people think of the Confederate Flag as a symbol of hate. Now us true Southerners know this is not the case but unfortunately some don't. I get offended by the Swastika symbol but I know enough to understand that it means several things depending on where you are from.

My point is don't judge someone without fully understanding the reason why they do something. Bubba might just want to not make anyone feel bad and if repainting a car will do that, then so be it.

By the way, do you know the Swastika symbol can also mean promising success, or having fortunes? But I will not wear one for respect to what it means to others.

The Bubba hate is ridiculous! Lots of great athletes are a*******. Doesn't make me any less of a fan.

Felt the same way about Jack Nicklaus and Fuzzy Zoeller (fellow golfers). Kobe Bryant and Michael Jordan in basketball, etc...

The most original player on Tour. Hard not to love the feel players or shotmakers like Bubba and Shane Lowry. I've never been a mechanical player. The shots that he attempts and pulls off all the time are a thing of beauty. I really admire that. It's not just about being Bubba Long.

What an awesome bag! Love the new Wahoos headcover. As a baseball fanatic I lthink it's cool that he just bought a minor league team too.

Definitely one of my favorite players on Tour. If Spieth or DJ can't win this week I'd love to see him get some Whistling Straits PGA payback.

[joeshmo]

What is the shaft in his driver?
Is the last 10" metal?

Don't get me wrong, he is a awesome shot maker. But he treats his caddy like garbage(I was at the travelers for his most memorable blow up) and buttons his top button on all of his golf shirts like a stiff. My friend also informed me that in a picture on Instagram of a bunch of tour guys on their way to the PGA Championship (on a plane I believe), everyone was wearing their normal clothes. There was Gerry, still wearing his "Look at me" Oakley apparel.

Things like that are why I don't like him.

Yeah it makes me cringe when he treats people poorly. His caddy and fans alike. That being said it's impossible not to love his golf game. Maybe that's why there are still players like Jordan Spieth and Dustin Johnson that I prefer to Bubba even though I'm still a big fan.

Not a Bubba fan, but love his setup. That torched putter finish is exceptional.

Would love to watch Bubba play in person, solid set of sticks!

You dont like a guy because he buttons his top button and because he was wearing "look at me" Oakley clothes.... on a private plane ride?

Interesting how you (and others) are upset on how you perceive that he treats Ted poorly and yet it doesn't bother Ted at all. He must know something you all don't know (and believe me it doesn't have to do with how much he is being paid).

Sure Bubba has made mistakes in the past but I will say this, he has grown up/changed a lot since they adopted the two kids.

As a side note, I button the top button on my golf shirts, all the time and have done this since 1980. I also travel wearing my GolfWRX.com apparel so I guess I'm on your list of people you don't like.
