A 12* SLDR....cranked to 13*...the pros really are lofting up! Thanks for the great pictures.

[UnderPar18]

Sweet lefty bag for sure!

[VanBTs]

Pro with a 7w?

[Puppetmaster]

Def great pictures. Really like the putter and SM5 wedges.

[LionLinks16]

Do you happen to know what his PING color code on his irons are? Is he a full TaylorMade staffer now or is going to keep the S55s in the bag for the year?

[MCCA]

Funny how all my playing partners thought i was nuts playing high lofted driver...

[jfinephasho]

I hate seeing players leave PING

[brockgolf44]

what the hell is wrong with his clubs? they are backwards or something

According to PGATour.com, Stewart Cink, William McGirt, and Scott Verplank are also using 12° SLDR drivers. I think I need to check out the 14° model when that comes out, and see if I can get that thing airborne!

I just know that adjusting loft and the right shaft can give you tremendous results.

[Chilli9880]

Wait a minute, he's got like 3 different brands in that bag and not all of the shafts and grips match. Plus I also saw that someone mentioned those clubs were backwards... How did this guy make the tour!?

In all seriousness, great bag! This guy definitely uses what works for him. Evidence of 12* driver, a 7 wood and 2 or 3 different grinds in his wedges. Good Stuff!

Langley has always hit the ball really low which accounts for the high lofts. I remember some low bullets at last year's Sony Open that he hit.

Am I the only one who has their SLDR at a lower loft than 8? I feel alone ...

[dikaia22]

Love seeing Langley's bag. Always pull for a STL and U of I kid!

All the tour sleeves for drivers are on right hand setting so essentially when it says "higher" it really means "lower". Therefore his 12 degree driver looks to really be set at about 10.75 and an open face. I've played 4 tour van taylormade driver shafts and this has always been the case for me as well.

Interesting. I figured they had left hand adapters available.

The putter is awesome!
