That putter is ridiculous! Not to mention Graphite Design must be cleaned out of DIs.

[BagofToast]

Hideki is a true WRXer

[semarlor]

An absolute pile of lumber sitting beside the bag.

"Hey Hideki! Which of the Graphite Design shafts would you like to use?"

 

"Yes."

 

 

I love the fact that he's still the same. One of my favorites!

[No_Catchy_Nickname]

Is that the new Z-Forged in the PW only?

 

Nice wedges. Pity those grinds--or something close-- aren't available on the retail versions.

[tilrifz]

Always tinkering, love to see it.

[walpy]

Dear lord that flatstick tho...

[third-times-a-charm]

The man travels around with like $25k worth of shafts and putters.

 

Never change Hideki.

Came here to see what Scotty he brought out, didn’t expect to find a warehouse if Graphite Design shafts. 

[GJR10]

Damn. Those shafts are heavy

[BallerNate]

Amazing look inside a surgeon’s bag.

 

Just look at how precisely that lead tape is positioned on his Woods. Looks like he’s got his ball flight dialed in with each club down to the Millimetre…incredible!

[RHenderson]

I'm interested in seeing that Graphite Design CQ perform, been looking at that shaft since it was announced. Awesome bag, always enjoy seeing what he may be tinkering with.

Thank you for the pictures

DI-10 TX in a fairway wood, I had no idea that was even a thing!

My back hurts just looking at the photos

His caddie must be absolutely jacked bring that bag from the parking lot to the range.

I know nothing changes with his fairways, but given he's hit some of the most absolutely insane FW shots I can remember seeing, I always come to look at the tools and pay my respects.

 

That Cobra 5w is always tempting.  I see his bag, then straight off to eBay and then one will sit in my cart for a few days until I become too scared to pull the trigger.

 

Plus, those wedge grinds look insane and I'd love to see those retail.

I had one of the tour 5w for a little bit and it was awesome - better than I expected with feel and sound etc - but low spin and not very forgiving. You also have to play it short and even if you take the weight out of it its still too heavy to play over 42.25" if you wanted to.

[JMLee]

just wondering why he still plays z-forged l instead of z-forged ll

The putter reminds of the David Toms' putter which had a similar neck style.

 

👌

Hideki is a shaft ho just like the rest of us. I really like the AD-DI and very interested in the CQ. Anyone compare those 2

I came to the same conclusion when I had mine. Great ball flight, but lacked forgiveness. I don’t know how much better the LTDx LS is in terms of forgiveness, but I like the way it setups. Looks just a bit bigger at address.
