He has a 5 year exemption for the US Open.

He's also being sarcastic.

Ok TM, get it in gear now. It’s time for some TM “T” edition irons...

From that angle...I definitely see the VR Pros. What a blade.

Legend.

 

Man, even with all the new nice looking blades out this year, I still like the VR pros/tgr the best

M2 tour 3 wood or regular m2?

 

M2 9.5* no weight bias, 13* 3-wood. Just heard it on S/XM

 

He was playing the 17 M2 Tour 3-Wood earlier this year so guessing that is what is still in his bag. Does anyone else find it odd that he goes from a strong 3-Wood at 13* then jumps to the 17 M1 5-Wood at 19*? That's quite the jump so maybe the 13* has been bent to add more loft or the 19* has had the loft turned down?

 

Apparently the answer is that he can the 3w as high as he wants even with the strong loft and needs to make some room gapping-wise for the nuclear 2-iron.

[Golfrnut]

I know I said earlier in the other thread, or maybe it was this one, that I think he would be a creature of habit and move back to the 5W when playing most tournaments...but after 4 days with that club and seeing the results, now I'm starting to wonder how the hell you could ever take that club out of the bag.

[ignitewvu]

So what in the heck was that driver???

 

2017 M2 Crown

2016 M2 Sole

 

Were my eyes playing tricks on me & when does that drop on the Vault?

 

The Results were staggering.....that's the best Tiger has drove the ball in years.....which doesn't surprise me at all considering he finally has some legits Woods in the bag....

I have not seen anything to convince me that it’s anythinrg other than a 2016 crown

Agreed. Haven't seen any pics at all that make the crown look like it has the 2017 narrower white section with the slight bulge in the transition area from white to black. Anyone have any pics or video?

[jonn443]

 

He was absolutely POUNDING that M2. I haven’t seen him that comfortable with the driver since 2007. I have to say it, the tour issue 2016 M2 heads are argueably the hottest heads in the last 10 years.

[mhales10]

Looks like the last two rounds he went back to metal spikes. I know I said I would not bring up the topic again but he has said that he likes the spikes because he really grinds into the ground on his swing. I figured the move to the soft spikes was swing related but he looks to be moving well and probably going back to what he is comfortable with.

I just looked at several good pics of Tiger hitting driver at the Hero on Getty Images and the crown of his M2 driver is clearly the 2016 model. Let's put to bed this silly 2017 crown/2016 sole theory.

I saw a sharper angle on the seam where the Ti Meets the Carbon.....It looked 2017 Crown to me....but IDK.

That is definitely the case on the 3 wood, but not on the driver, which makes sense b/c the 3 wood is a 2017 M1 and the driver is a 2016 M2. You can clearly see on several Getty Images that his M2 driver crown has the wider white strip versus the narrow 2017 white strip. I would post the pictures but I think Getty has rules against that. Just look at his images from the weekend on Getty and you will see what I mean.

[SigmaKyle31987]

Interesting that he used the 13.5* 2017 M2 Tour 3-Wood for Mon. - Fri. then switched to a 2017 M1 3-Wood on the Weekend? I’d assume the M1 was at 15* as opposed to his M2 Tour at 13.5*? Just an observation

[moonshine]

Looked through a few pages...DI in driver still?

Nope, not since 2014?

Would love to know the lofts of the other 2 driving irons he was trying

Where did you see that he switched mid-tournament?

Where did you hear he even had an M2 Tour 3 wood in play? Take a look at his WITB on the wrx home page.

[bladehunter]

Wrx has claimed m2 tour the whole time. But I think it's been a 17 m1 the whole time.
