Can't really stand him but love love LOVE his bag. G25s got in there fast.

[color=#282828]You've got to be kidding.. If you don't watch him that's one thing, but to actively dislike Westwood? Guy is so soft spoken and proper British- always gives interviews when asked, and doesn't turn down autograph requests. Then partners up with his old man to the ProAm for 54 holes (his old man has a hard time walking.) What's not to like?[/color]

[color=#282828]That's like saying you "can't stand" Retief Goosen. They just fly under they radar - but both are very congenial and great ambassadors to the game.[/color]

[color=#282828](edit : not only that, he let golfWRX hold his clubs and photograph mu[/color]ltiple angles of each one for us to see. They don't all do that.)

I'm a big Westwood fan too, I grew up watching him on the European Tour. He has always been one of my favourites.

Great pics as always guys!

[eerogolf]

No probably not the only way that might happen, if you could tell them exactly what is in there. for example with a single iron of a set to match what you already have. I was able to get a S57 XG 6 iron with exact specs.

same as wilson, yellow in the irons and blue in the wedges
[/quote]

I would have guessed gold/purple based on the pictures alone, but I suppose the gold lie angle is pretty extreme. Do you know for sure that he plays his clubs more upright? I am 5'9" and fall into the purple/orange range (my i5's are orange) and I feel like I'm the only weirdo playing clubs that flat, ha. They feel comfortable though, especially when I am in my stance over the ball.

[cardoustie]

Is anyone else impressed how fast the G25's are getting into everyone's bags. I love my G25 4 wood, have ordered a blueprinted 7 wood and the driver will come once the snow melts

You gotta love Westwood and his dry British humour. You can't not love a ball striking Jessie like that cat

whatever works for you is great, lie angles can vary greatly from player to player

westwood is one of the few guys on tour that i find to be legitimately funny, not sure why someone wouldn't like him

[LorenRobertsFan]

That's one ugly putter though.

At the end of the day you still want the correct ball flight. My static lie is Green and I generally play Black or Blue depending on how long I want the clubs.

[TMGRIS]

I like westwood
Love the bag recently bought my first ping club... Anser driver 9.5 added matrix 6M3 black tie
Awesome combo
Tried the G25 just more consistent with the Anser

I find it interesting that a guy who has access to a tour van and has probably played the same length of putter for ages is rolling one of the adjustable length Scottsdale TR's. I've spent some time with most of the new models and they are saaaweet.
[/quote]

He might like the feel of the adjustable version. I tried them out at Golfsmith last weekend. It might just be me, but I definitely thought the adjustable and non-adjustable versions felt a tad different.

I want the Senita baaaaadly!
[/quote]

Lee liked the weighting of the adjustable TR better.

It's extremely impressive especially considering how little Westwood has changed equipment in his career. G25 is the real deal!

[fredstar]

He's one of my favourite guys and I love his bag!

Intersting seeing a 10.5* G25 up in there. Took a while to switch from his G10.

[surewin73]

[u]I believe the face on his G10 driver cracked at the Northern Trust Open a few weeks ago.[/u]

No, he played the G25 at Pebble - we walked with he and Vijay that week for many holes. First time i had seen the G25 in person. His bag hasn't changed since that event except for maybe head lofts (rumor)

[kiteman]

does anyone else on tour play i20 irons? i can't believe he plays an 11* driver, that's nuts.

Yeah, lots of them do - check out Pings website under the Pros section - they have great info on specs too.

[ttm27]

He changes putters almost as often as I do. Seems like every 2 weeks he has a new one.

Same bag since Pebble. I think he went up in driver loft. [b]Wow 10.5.[/b] Thought he had a 9.5 a few weeks ago.
[/quote]

That's 10.5* in the plus setting! So 11*! And all three wood shafts the same...who does that? Lee should come around here more often...

Actually, it's a great bag - Yeah for Westy to drop the G10 for the G25 driver so quick says a lot for that club - Hope he has a great year.
[/quote]

Lee's G10 driver actually cracked a few weeks ago thus the change to the G25.

[Dave Feldman]

Nice shaft finish on the fairway woods.

[cherd5]

I think Lee's close to winning a major this year, he's always been an excellent ball striker, if he can get the flat stick going he'd be great

[cburrows33]

Putter change again for Lee, rolling a Shea H from the looks of it

Yes I noticed that as well. Love the look of that putter. Might have to try it out.

[mdb0103]

I love watching Lee play, and just his attitude in general. After watching Feherty last night I'm really pulling for him to win a major this year.

His house and car are pretty sweet too.

I was just coming in here to post this exact thing. He seems like a really good guy.

[jack1123]

For those surprised about Lee playing his driver at 11, Mahan also has his driver at 11 degrees

[jfinephasho]

Another putter change Saturday, looked like the Scottsdale TR answer 2

Does Westwood have purple and white Stitch covers this week?

It does look like Stitch purple roadsters.

[robbie91]

Can somebody shed some light on his choice of the JZ Stiff. From what I have read it plays similar in flex to the S300 but at a lighter weight. It certainly seems like a really soft shaft for his swing speed.
