I love Harley's. Who's sporting that staff Harley bag?

One of the Am's in the Pro-Am.

Another excellent set of photos, Greg! Thanks!

Did you get a good look at the shafts Schwartzel was testing? (the black ones with the SA flag) Also, in the shots of Ben Crane, which club(s) was he testing all those shafts in?

Johnny Walker must pay well if Furyk has a full Crappaway bag minus the actual bag itself...

Johnny walker owned by diageo one of largest spirits companies in world! They got the cash. Lol on crappaway! I play almost a full bag and nothing I have tried beats them....especially ball speed on drivers!

It looks like Tiger's saying to Rory, "Wow you hit that 3 wood as far as my Driver."

Anyone else notice that poulter using a 913 and what looms to be a taylormade Rbz driver on the range? I remember seeing that cobra built him 5 of the ferrari drivers not too long ago.

Ian was just checking out Rory's driver. Didn't hit it. He's still playing his Cobra Encore

Vijay left the practice green with 5 Scotty Cameron tour only putters - I guess he's guaranteed about $20k this week regardless of how he finishes
[/quote]

I saw Vijay take 5 putters as well he didn't even roll all of them then he disappeared under the grandstand behind the range. Greg this was on Tuesday.
[/quote]

I contacted the Cameron Tour Rep and they were aware that VJ took the putters. They were working with him to get him one that he likes and VJ will return the ones that he doesn't intend to use

I must be missing something. Why does it matter that Vijay got 5 putters from the Cameron bag? Don't all pros get free equipment? I do not know the whole freebie system, so perhaps some one can explain it, but if I remember correctly there were previous pics of two players' young son's bags and both had circle T golos. I'm pretty sure neither of those were paid for, and obviously didn't get returned.

It's not a free for all on Tour. The Tour Reps have to account for where stuff goes. They will give stuff to players if it's going to be used but will ask for stuff back if not.

Hope he shaved that porn star lip warmer....

Geoff has been on the Titleist staff, playing Titleist irons (not made by Miura) since right before they sold Cobra to Puma.

I find it interesting (not really) that Westwood and maybe Mahan have ditched the Nome putter. i have putted with one and it puts a great roll on the ball, will probably get one when the price goes down. Thanks for the pics as always, great job!

Hey photograpers out there.
If anyone can get a good pick of the new Cru 3 wood headcover RF is bagging I'd appreciate it. It is OSU colors and I saw it briefly on tv but would like a good shot of it.

[mrfullwm]

What is the guy on the first tee doing looking in each player's bag? Counting clubs?

Did anyone see Tom Gillis' R11 fairway painted black in Thurs Part 3?

[Travel RN]

On Wed #3...Vijay has a black putter head on reg shaft (not belly) with super stroke putter grip. Anyone know what this club is? It looks like the old Hogan Baby Ben.

VJ was talking with the Tour Super Stroke Rep and messing around with a Bettinardi putter that had the grip on it that he and the SS Tour Rep were talking about. VJ then went back to practicing with his long putter.
