Using Mizuno woods but not Mizuno irons is quite something 

[eric61]

So is that Mizuno 3W playing like a 5W in between the Stealth 2 Plus 3W and the Stealth 7W? I see it's in the upright setting but don't know how the Mizuno adapter works off the top of my head.

[B_of_H]

what is the point of the wedge and iron shaft pics?  haha to show he is playing some sort of steel shaft with steps?  

[golfinbrad]

Wow.  Faldo to a center shafted putter.

The TM 3 wood doesn't look like it's been used. He was probably just testing the two.

I was thinking that about most of his clubs except the 7w, doesn't look like he plays or hits ball much anymore.

He made sure we saw his 👞

That mizzy is a Great driver and very underrated

Probably took off the Reg flex shaft stickers like a true WRX'er.

[No_Catchy_Nickname]

PING irons and a centre-shafted mallet in the bag?
 

Is this what life in Montana has brought him to??

Sqairz has been pretty good to WRX. @SwingBlues agrees!

i remember he was using some sort of Seemore putter for quite a while, a counterbalance mallet, with the claw grip to boot! 🙂

That combo good for about what, 9 extra yards???

🤣no, just comfort. I don't think any of us in the WRX review of the Voxx socks can say it added yardage either. Was using the woolen sock before but I do like the stability of the Sqairz - that is true for me.

I remember reading Faldo had used the same iron shafts for a good part of his career just swapping new heads and grips on them., perhaps the no label shaft was to show he is still using the same set of shafts he has had for years?

Pretty doubtful as the bore depth for every hosel (even the same brand) changes club over club. 
 

My guess is they’re probably a KBS shaft which he didn’t feel like putting the labels on (or asked them not to). Builders usually put those on last and some players just say don’t bother.  
 

True temper also has blank tour stock available for players who request it, but not sure he is that worried about labels.

seeing his action I would guess he is a great fit for KBS tour.  The steps are too obvious to be $ taper.  Could be tour v perhaps.  

[Mp14forlife]

No Mizuno irons? Not surprising. Mizuno can make a butter knife but for a more forgiving players cb, Ping and Srixon have done a better job in that department.

When he was tested a few years back it was in between an S400, a Project X 6.5, and a KBS Tour X.

Don't think the wedges are Hydropearl finish, they look more like New Raw to me?
