Being a lefty Im jealous of that 3i

[TiScape]

Gotta love the ‘Off-White’ Jordan 1 as a HC for the putter. Didn’t know Tony was a sneakerhead. Also, those Glide wedges are super clean.

Anyone know what the arrow on his putter is for?

If I had to guess its for setup. When he covers the arrow with the neck (forward press) he is in a good setup. If I remember correctly Ping built that putter for him quite a bit of loft since he uses quite a lot of forward press.

But just a guess

I thought that too but forward press wouldnt hide the arrow, the neck goes forward, not heel'ward

Sorry, I meant align. Cover, as you said, is the wrong word to describe it. Brain poop on my part 🙂

To me it looks like the arrow is placed at a slight angle and not parallel to the where the neck is attached to the head.

I notice he has a line on the other side of the neck too, maybe he uses them to make sure his hands are too high/low.

 

More of a posture reminder or something

[booty4]

is that the modus 120 X or TX on the irons?

[jt2gt]

Looks like someone got a new Stretch 3 head...bet he has a stash of them.  Still have mine, its a bomber.

Wonder how big his stash of Vapor Fly Pro 3 irons is?  Who knew these would have any type of staying power on tour.

@MITSUBISHI CHEMICAL new D limited.  80TX there. Same graphics as Gen2 S+. Something new coming?

Yes, exactly! That was what I was after but couldn't form the sentence in English! But that was my first thought aswell, although my previous replies maybe stated something other

Other than that the Anser Wide head is an absolute stunner

Serial number has BK in it. Wonder if it was originally made for Brooks. Nike/Artisan Mike Taylor tend to use player name/number in the serials.

He uses TX in 4-PW and X in his GW, I'm pretty sure.

 

I recently started using the 120TX in my 5-GW and they have the perfect blend of feel and stability.

Ah ok, I couldn't see tony using the 120X through the irons with that swing tempo.  TX makes sense

[TM4me]

A lot of buildup tape under his grips.

 

[Beastmode Broker]

That Vapor 3i tho …. It’s seen things 

[TLUBulldogGolf]

That putter is awesome.

 

Did he buy that 3i off Brooks?

[QuigleyDU]

His grips seem twisted..

I've used some UTx grips in the past.  I install them logo down and they all twist a little bit.  

 

***To clarify, they twist when installing.  They don't move once they are dry.

Pings website lists +4 and + 3 wraps on his irons. 

[jaffabell88]

1st thing I noticed were how twisted those grips were. I guess Tony isn't bothered but you would think a tour truck would want to get them bang on!

Not sure how you could miss all the NRGs he plays in. Only guy really, other than Pat Perez.

Tony?! Every time I see him he’s is these. If he wore some special NRG versions I definitely missed em. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Those headcovers can be found at country club kicks website

I used to love those UTX grips, but no matter how much I cleaned/scrubbed/sanded them they always got slick way too quickly.  Z Cords are the replacement for them and they seem much better to me personally.
