Phil Mickelson's What's In The Bag Photos Shot at 2012 WGC Bridgestone

[tlee44]

Wow... nice Prototype Fubuki & double XX aniha...

[J_Tizzle]

Thats a fat soled lob wedge...

[Lefty1987]

Great work Greg, looks like the 64* is out of the bag?

[JR Van]

Great photos, my old man's a big phil fan and loved the photos! thanks!

[golfware]

It's interesting to see that he still games that old 3 wood, yet goes with the Razr FIT 5 wood as well. I can tell you from personal experience that the FIT 5 wood is ridiculous. So easy to hit flush and so forgiving. I find that my Diablo Edge Tour 3 wood is much more consistent in my 3 wood. To figure.

I can't even fathom trying to hit an Ahina 70XX in the Razr FIT. That must be rebar. Wonder why we doesn't go back to the Fujikura that he had so much success with.

Thanks for the pics Greg, this is truly fantastic insight!

Greg, you are the man. Thank you for all the work you do.

Ok Well Everyone Knows Tiger Plays Nike Clubs .... So With Your Logic Photo's Of Those Aren't Nessecary Either..... Nor Should Anyone Care To See Them.... Seriously ???? Really ???? Everyone Knows Phil Plays An Ahina.... But ????

Greg,
You Do A Great Job Every Week With The Photo's. I Am Very Appreciative Of That..... As Is The Entire Rest Of The Board.....
It Was A Simple Statement..... With A Question..... Nothing More And Nothing Less..... I Was Actually Assuming That They Wouldn't Let You Shoot The Iron Shafts Just Like They Didn't Let You Shoot The Putter......
Amazing How This Got Blown Into What It Is.,,,,.

If backpedaling was an Olympic sport I think you just won the gold medal.

This Thread Would Be Better Without The Senseless Complaining And Poor Grammar

Awesome pics, Greg. Thank you.

I was most interested in Phil's lob wedge. I am always curious to see what he has in the bag in that slot. Interesting to see the pronounced toe grind.

Also, is it my eyes or does the 52* have a bit of P Grind on it? It looks like there is a channel down the sole, but again, sometimes pictures can be deceiving

If Talking About Something You Know Nothing About Was An Olympic Sport You Would Have More Medals Than Michael Phelps..... Why Don't You Actually Read My Original Post.....

Greg,
[u][b]Can't Believe You Didn't Snap Pictures Of His Iron Shafts ?[/b][/u]??? KBS Tour V2

Nice comment, instead of appreciating getting something you've never gotten before, you whine about not getting more!

[u][b]You're welcome!!!![/b][/u]

Wow! Such A Pleasure You Are !!! A Little Defensive Are We??? Who Said Anyone Wasnt Appreciative??? I Was Making A Simple Statement That You Snapped Pictures Of The Wood Shafts And Not The Irons..... The Irons Shafts Would Have Been The First Thing I Would Have Looked At ..... And Tried To Shoot..... Everyone Knows Phil Is Playing The Newer V2 Proto Version Of KBS Tours......
As A Moderator Of The Site Maybe You Should Follow All Your Own Advice And Quit Being So Condesending And Negative !!!!!

That wasn't making a simple statement, that was a dick statement. I hate when someone is offensive and they accuse another of being defensive.

Great pictures Greg, thanks for sharing!

Me too so plus 1!

[Fornesto]

love that bag! i like that he wasnt allowed to touch the putter a guy's gotta have some limits

[Pure745]

Thanks for the pics Greg!

That lob wedge grind looks like it could slice your hand off!!!

[quote name='HHGC' timestamp='1343847962' post='5391262']
Great Pics. Thanks for posting them. I'm curious why Phil hasn't gone to the new V Forged wedges. It's sharp looking with all the irons and wedges having the same cut on the back of the club. Thanks for getting the XX flex on the shaft. I'm curious what the CPM's on that would be and if tipped at all. Regards.
[/quote]

Speculative, but I imagine he's not playing the V Forged because of the bounce, too high in the sand and lob.

[timbo08]

Man that is fantastic. Thanks for the pics, really cool to see Phil's gear up close like that!

[rex235]

Greg-

A look into the bag of one of the premier players of the game!

Thanks for the photos of Phil's equipment-
The shafts are a plus, since they're an individual fitted item.
Callaway never made very many LH X Prototype model irons, so the RAZRs were a logical step.

[magnus7319]

Love the Diablo 3 wood. Just like mine...er...if I was left handed, swung an X-flex, and you know, had twice the clubhead speed. LOL

[lettucebcereal]

Nice bag LEFTY!

[Arizonalefty59]

AWESOME!!! Nice close ups!!!

It has taken me 3 years to work the relationship with Bones to get to where I was today. Trying to get all the shots without getting in his way while he was prepping for Phil to come out to the range to practice & hurrying thru to get the shots before Phil arrived to begin his practice session.

Really wasn't expecting someone to whine about what I missed.

You did good, us Phil Phans appreciate the pics!

Why Do I Feel The Need To Capitalize The First Letter Of Every Word...And...Sometimes...Use...Lots...Of...Periods?

But anyways, thanks for the pics.

[golf_junkie27]

Greg,

Have you ever seen the hybrid that Phil designed and is a one-off? If so, can you describe what it looks like?

Just curious to know what the profile is.

Many thanks.

Great pics Greg, 99.99% of us are grateful of the opportunity you have obviously earned. Does anyone know what face/insert Phil uses?

[BNich0622]

XX Flex. I don't think I have ever seen such a thing!

[moonshine]

In regard to the wedges, everyone I have seen with the new ones loves them!!! Great job again on the pics, don't think anyone was attempting to complain...have a cold one for me!

That is the club I am dying to see up close. Hopefully it will surface one day when Greg is lurking around.

[golf_junkie27]

 

This is a pic I found online. Additionally, I found two more but they had watermarks and I did not want to be "that guy." For info sake, the top of the hybrid looks almost identical to the Adams Grey Peanut head.

 

 

Hope that helps.
