WITB Dustin Johnson

[surehands79]

Anyone know the reason he uses the KBS shafts in his wedge(s)? Spin i assume, but what advantage/feel do they give over the DGs that are in the rest of his irons? Whatever it is why not switch all irons?

 

Why not switch ?? .... Well ... Here's a few reasons I can think of ...

 

 

 

I'm just sayin ;)

 

I think you are misunderstanding my question...not why switch now, why did he switch from DGs in his wedges earlier this year to KBS, and why only wedges??

b/c you use your wedges more often than other clubs?

it would make sense to try them out there, wouldnt it?

During Friday's broadcast, they were talking about how Dustin cracked the face of R9 during practice earlier in the week at Celtic Manor. Any news on him switching to a different head besides the R9? At one point Fri it almost looked like he was gaming superfast head, but that may be entirely wrong.

from what i have seen is that he stills has the same wedge setup, same driver like all year. He has iomic sticky white grips. Also i think he has kbs shafts in his irons too but not 100% sure

I thought he played X1 in the irons and KBS Black Nickel in the wedges.

[g8a_golf]

I believe at the Shark Shootout, he's using the new MB's with the weight port

[SetTheBarrHigh]

He was using the new irons for the first few days, but it said he went back to his old ones (R9 TP) for the final round. Maybe he'll adjust to the new ones over the break.

[tembolo1284]

Go Dustin!

[ntogolf]

Funny I did notice today he went back to the R9 "b's".

Looked like R9 TP/Bs to me as well in the telecast of the final round.

[tembolo1284]

[Jordo8]

Not many. Guys are probably tired of changing clubs every 6 months with Taylormade. The white drivers are much more popular than I thought. I wonder what the per diem is for the white driver for non-staffers.

[longbal30]

Did anyone else notice Dustin playing the r9 tp's today, I freeze framed one of his shots and it was a definite.
