The knuckle neck on that Six shape putter is so awesome. The six is similar to the Toulon Memphis and CPO has (had?) them in a tour issue knuckle neck and I picked one up - such a point and shoot putter with perfect toe hang and looks down at the ball for a small D-mallet.

Interesting that he goes from DG X100 in his irons to NSPRO Modus 3 120 Stiff in his wedges.

Yeah, that is huge drop in flex considering that the overall bend profile of the 120 'S' is really similar to a DG 'R' flex

Also has heavier shaft in 3 wood than hybrid.

I know the screws & plates in the new ones are supposed to do magical things but those classic MBs are still so, so clean. Tempted to grab a set after seeing them again.

Love the look of those MB's.

That driver headcover looks enormous.  Is that where he keeps his frying pan?

Okeh.

Wouldn't lighter shafts cause his launch to go a lot higher? I thought most tour guys talk about trying to hit their wedges as low as possible, I could be wrong

Really wish Cally would give us those irons at retail.

Lighter shafts won't always make launch higher.  Most tour guys try to hit their wedges lower for better distance control.

a lot of people think that everyone should go heavier in wedge shafts but most would do better with lighter IMO.  I think this is a pretty extreme example from a flex/stiffness example but its more common than many think.

Why go lighter?  Min Woo is probably maybe a handful of tour pros that goes lighter in wedges.  He probably likes the kick/load of the Modus 120S and how much it spins.

Interesting M.W. Lee has Gripmaster leather grips on his woods and irons but then Golf Pride Z Cord grips on his wedges.

Probably for an enhanced feel and feedback on the shorter shots

Those MB/s are sweet

I was about to say the same thing. I wonder why. Maybe it's the seam -- it's basically a rib, which is great for clubs where just about every shot is with a square face, but potentially problematic on wedges where he'd want to open/close them? That's my best guess at least, but if anybody knows or has other thoughts, I'm curious.

Hello Miura Callaway forged blades, I see you.

Isn't a 16.5 is 4 wood? Why would they call it 3 wood HL ?

16.5 is a tweener between 3 and 4 metal strictly speaking from a loft perspective hence why they're labeled 3HL.

The 16.5 3HL is supposed to be the same length club as a standard 15 3 wood (around 43") with more loft.  A real 4 wood would also be more loft, 16.5-17.5 and about a 1/2" shorter in length.  I believe the length of the club is the difference maker between a "4 wood" and a "3 HL".

Generally same head size/volume/weight with a 3 and 3hl as well, whereas a standard 4wd would be heavier and slightly smaller in volume. I haven’t checked Min Woo’s specs, but I’m guessing he plays this 3HL shorter than stock length given how heavy that shaft is. Could be wrong, just a guess, but ik he naturally launches the ball very high so I’m guessing he can get away with going with a shorter shaft with that loft and almost playing it like a true 4wd (probably doesn’t have to add much weight back to the head with how heavy the shaft is though)

Aren't they just Miura mb-101s with Cally branding?

He does seem to favor shafts that load a decent amount, especially given his ludicrous speed. 

Personally I like lighter shafts in wedges so they can be played longer. All my wedges are around +1.25" and lighter shafts help keep that from getting too hefty feeling.
