He was using a Fuji 757 tourspec shaft in his driver today. I saw a closeup on one of his drives.

[lefty92]

Well now that he is with Callaway, he is using the FT-5. I'm not sure what else he is playing though.

[rdavis]

I saw some pictures from Getty Images that show he is playing the X forged irons and the FT 5 driver but I didnt see any pictures of his FW's, wedges, or putter.

And here they are.

 

I'm surprised he changed irons so quickly - must like them.

[Redbird]

Callaway's website only has him listed as using the HX.Tour 56, obviously he is using more than that given the pictures from up above.

[DaveyH]

such a great sight :blink: Ernie with callaway ahhh!!

[tmac7592]

ft-5, x forged, hx tour 56 and what about wedges? maybe x tour, i would guess, he seems to be gettin as far away from titleist as he can so i would assume x tour fws

[DaveyH]

he can use anything tto putt with as long as its not a oddyssey 2 ball those things suck

[archangel1611]

x forged is probably similar to his old taylormades

[Status]

I still can't believe he has left Titleist. I thought he'd be with them forever. Mind you those X-forged irons do look rather tasty.

[300yard+]

me either, If anything back to Taylor Made.

[zdawg1rhs]

he is playing x tour wedges and one of the new proto milled putters by odysey ... saw pics of them

 

totally sweet that he went to cally... right guys ... LOL

[jayxmoneyx101]

I was watching The Golf Channel today and they reported Ernie switched from the FT-5 to the FT-I and also a center shafted putter. Never gave the name though.

[electroleum]

Just saw Ernie make a putt this morning at the Open, and the camera was right behind him. At first glance, doesn't look like any special odyssey putter - looks like it's either a White Hot XG#5 or a center-shafted Rossie

.......to each his own.......

[CGB]

Yeah they just showed a semi close up of the putter and it appears to be a center shafted Rossie. Not positive though. But it definately had the XG insert.

[g8a_golf]

According to TGC, he's playing the new Callaway blades and a Hyper X fairway wood. can't wait to see some pics...

[jcamn1]

Blade Pic

[MustangGolfer]

[scottycam234]

Knocking .3 of a degree off a 3 wood and .5 of a degree off a hybrid...

Sorry Ernie,and as good as you clearly are i dont completely buy it. I cannot believe that with varying Countries,tournaments,shots, lies,winds,temperatures,elevations etc etc that you are completely able to differentiate between such small differences day in and day out.

Strikes me as 'Placebo' to some degree..........
