Luke....win a major, then you will be the king of the world.

I'm pretty sure he already is the king of golf. Winning the money title on the European Tour and the PGA Tour is pretty good to me. Well, it does at least sound good when he hits his old irons.

He's almost there. Still needs to win one of the four biggest tournies to complete the resume.

[bossdog]

The way he hit his driver down the stretch at the last event was great, he seems more comfortable with the club. Keep it up at the majors!

I want that RBC / Mizuno bag. It looks sweet.

Is there any truth to the claims that pros play different clubs than what's available for retail? I'm sure they have the loft tweaked so their 6i isn't stock loft maybe. And they probably have shaft flexes that are tweaked for ideal launches etc. I get that. But I've heard claims like "the prov1 you play isn't the same as the tour players.". Is that true? And I'm not talking prototype either. The claim is that they are playing the same named club/ball but the pros have a different version beyond the adjustable aspects.

Also regarding witb, I have seen a player play a different driver than what the head cover was...different brand even. Forget who it was (not big name) but it was at shell Houston open. Saw a guy take a mizuno(?) cover off a tm driver. I was only about 15' away so I saw it clearly. So just because you see a certain head cover that doesn't mean that's what he's playing. It's just a billboard apparently.

If you simply search "tour issue" in the forums you will learn a whole lot about the different products that tour players use compared to retail!

What grips is Luke playing - Blue BCT or Blue/Black NDMC?

I took for granted how much The Gachet really contributes here when he disappeared for a bit. Thanks for all your bud! Nick Faldo Thread is my favorite.

[/size][/color][color=#1C2837][size=2]Are those the new MP59's in his bag at 1:20 in the above video? Is he playing these in Dubai?[/size][/color]

[GatorNate11]

Those are certainly the 59's. As for playing them, not sure. Haven't watched enough of the Dubai coverage to even pay attention.

NDMC

[williamo]

He's cool.

[Mark_Crossan]

Who´s Luke Donald???

 

A guy with a nice swing, but no ablility to play with the big boys. I can´t understand, why he´s Mizzi´s marquise player.

 

Intresting, the new MP-630 woods are not in Donald´s bag. Not a good sign about the tour-quality of the new Mizzi woods.

 

all i can say to this is LOL

[tigerfan23]

whats at the top of Lukes Bag?

Driver and 3 wood / 5 wood or 3 wood / hybrid?
What makes?

[dmh81]

They said on the broadcast this morning that Luke put 12 new clubs in the bag this week anyone know what he's playing. The only club i could definitely make out was an R11S
