@pga43 Greg, what kind of info did you get from team Reed on this one?

[jt2gt]

Looks pretty badass from the top....little ping like finish without the silly turbulators.  

[scooterhd2]

crown looks good. Sole looks a bit cheap, but Id give it a few swings. 

[erock9174]

Crown reminds me of the 2015/16 Great Big Bertha. Sole looks cheap imho 

[ShortSticks]

Barf

[Judge Smails]

Mah on the driver, but certainly have seen worse looking clubs!

 

I am more interested to see he is gaming an old Rogue Silver instead of he newer model!

[SUPERG]

looks cheap, like a knockoff of a knockoff lol 

[BirdieBob]

No more PXG...looks like a PXG copycat with the multiple sole weights.

[TheMoneyShot]

420cc size?

[HalfSet]

bonded with no adapter... interesting 

[capking]

I guess his PXG contract must have an out clause?

[av1084]

The font on the sole screams “counterfeit.” Top looks decent imho, reminds me of the Callaway X Hot series.

He just signed with them too?

This making it into Patrick’s bag this week about as likely as a PGA Championship title defense in 22’.

He was driving it so well with the G400. Not sure why he hasn’t gone back to that.

I shot the Grindworks driver in his WITB Monday afternoon and he asked me to hold the photos until he decided whether it would go into play.  This morning on the way to the range to warm up Patrick said go ahead and post the photos cuz it's going into play, leads me to believe not to make any bets on title defenses based on your expertise.

He's searching. He was playing a Callaway Rogue driver at the Wells Fargo per Getty Images. He is outside the top 200 (204th out of 210) in Strokes Gained off the Tee so far this season, with short distance and meh accuracy. Hope cashing those PXG checks for the driver are worth it. Kaboom baby. 🙄

He will always struggle with the driver until he fixes his swing.

Love it!  You might be safe betting against the title defense this week.  For all other predictions I have moving forward run for the hills. 

 

Excellent access and detective work as always!

[PowderedToastMan]

PXG paying big bucks for the Patrick Reed hat only deal apparently. 

[von3jack]

I agree with the others saying that it looks good from the top. For alot of people thats all that matters. I like my clubs to look good from every angle. I can't believe i'm saying this but I kinda want PReed to make a comeback. Golf needs a villain. 

[03trdblack]

I'm curious to hear more about this "pure face technology".  Are there un-pure faces on drivers out there somewhere?

[elwhippy]

I like the driver. The irons look amazing.

“But her face” technology??😂

[third-times-a-charm]

Looks just fine outside of the bullseye face etch and the 'basic chinese factory' serif fonts used for the loft and slogan on the face, etc.

never heard of this company

Grindworks makes his irons.  They are a  niche brand from Japan.
