Caddy said the numbers written in marker on the backs of the irons are the yardage he hits each club, in yards, not meters.

I've heard of him playing 2 different U (gap) wedges before but this bag shows 3 (yardages of 125, 118, 109). Actually it shows 2 different PW's (132 & 140) too. I'm guessing he changes things up based on whether he wants an 1 or 2 gap wedges in the bag.

[pga43]

He also had another wedge that he was practicing with and I didn't get to shoot it. I'll try to get it tomorrow.

I think most of the British players still use yardages in Europe, it's just the Europeans that use meters and they can switch pretty quickly.

iron shafts?

 

[pdl16]

Based on his caddy yardage markings on the irons it's nice to see not all tour pros are hitting their 8 irons 225 yards?

[dalehead]

No, it’s just tour pros at altitude and WRX’ers who do that.

[pdl16]

I like this. It's true. I'm replacing my driver with a 5 iron this season. Yardage about the same. I wish ?

[bcflyguy1]

I know in the past he's used one of Ping's iron shafts, perhaps ZZ65?

[vman]

Still using the JZ I believe.

JZ Stiff - Step Stiff.

I believe it's mentioned in his WITB when he won earlier this year.

Putter cover says PLD and turns out to be a Fetch.

 

Talk about being a tease.

[Titletown]

gotta be one of the ugliest putters ping has ever made

[themasters78]

i love westwood.

A shame he never won a major. If he could putt he would 2-3

 

 

[Mookieb10]

so is he not in any of the glide wedge offerings?? He just takes a pitch and gap and bends them as needed? If so, that’s pretty unique.

[J_Tizzle]

What versions of the NV are those? I love the chrome look (not sure if they're chrome or its just the angle/lighting).

 

Always loved Westwood, always rooting for him.

[mdthornton]

He has a Ping Glide Forged Lob Wedge (60*).

[MofoJones]

Great idea with clubs to put carry yardage on them! So simple. I've heard a bunch of pros doing this with tape below the grip on wedges too. For example: " 40, 75, 110 " will be there club shaft to 9' o'clock, club straight in the air, and full swing yardages for say a 56. Then do it with a 52 too: 45, 82, 120 for 52 ect.

I'm going to put in the time to do this for the upcoming season

[getair23]

They are the 15th anniversary NV Green with an Ion plating. Same shaft with an updated finish.

[J_Tizzle]

Just noticed the 2nd G410 has "low spin" written in sharpie on it. I wonder if that means it's been hot melted to perform more like a LST head?

[EaglesGolf99]

I'm digging those too!

[EaglesGolf99]

Interesting. Hadn't seen them beforehand.

[Valtiel]

Given that there are two drivers, i'd guess you're right. Likely hot melt low and forward, or maybe just a head that spec'd lower in loft.
