Wow great photos. [b]Edit[/b]: See the face is different on the putters.

[smmeloy]

The putters look very different to me. Not sure what you are looking at...

[kmbean]

i'm surprised his putters are that dinged up.

Wow great photos. The putters are the exact same, one is just newer.

Yes very nice photos. I am really interested to see how Tiger's driving is this year with the 2.0 and the BB.
It doesn't look like those putters are the same to me. The darker one has deeper milling across the whole face including the "grooves". I am curious if that putter has "faux" grooves like tiger was talking about with rory in their china match.

I do like how nike filled in the "3" that cavity back 2 iron used to have on it. I'm sure it's a new club but it's a nice touch.

No clue which putter he is using but the faces do look like they have a different mill pattern. No sure if that is correct terminology but the faces look different to me.

I'm not sure they are, the milling looks a little different in the pattern? maybe its just the angle of the light.

Yeah I agree the faces are different, I was looking at the other photos and missed that.

One has the grooves smoothed out and the other is slightly raised.

I'd be interested to see how he's driving it with the heavier shafts. I wonder if the shafts are heavier in his fairway woods too?

I remember this coming up before. I believe when some of the Nike players switched over they were built putters with faces that were kind of a "transition" to the Method grooves from more traditional putters. Maybe Tiger uses the for different green speeds?

[JaxBeachNole]

the one with the deeper milling has a milling pattern on the "black groove", the other looks like the milling has stopped.

Is the BB 103 new for the driver this year? Wasn't it an 83 WB last year?

He said he was able to go heavier because he's healed up now. It seems like he's fully committed for accuracy off the tee vs. distance. It's the new 2.0 head with his old reliable shaft in it.

[alecfeltman]

These photos are fantastic. Next we need Rory

[kekoa]

was his putter always beached?

[Jimmie48]

wow I havent seen his stuff this close up on this site before I dont think....isnt his bag notoriously hard to get ahold of?

[JaxBeachNole]

Amazing work getting these Greg, can't imagine how hard it is to get that much access to his tools

[BuckyBadger]

Awesome pics. Really great job. Thank you.

[jeffyjeffmn]

Awesome pictures. Thanks for posting.

[griffinflesch8]

I would guess that the deep-milled one is newer and the other is the one he used most of last year based on the number of dings on them

[DavePelz4]

Hopefully he counts those clubs before his first round tomorrow.

I thought the 83 wb was the old reliable or did he play the BB 103 in his driver in the past?

Joe has evidently softened him up and let some pics get out.

[eppey]

You can tell one putter has deeper grooves than the other. Especially if you look at the couple of pics that one of the putters has debris in the grooves and the other doesn't.

I love the pics, a couple of them you can even tell that he has more than a few wraps of tape under the grip.

The 103 was his old reliable before he blew out his ACL. He needed to generate more speed and needed the spin to fly the ball. That's why he switched to GD for a few years.

[jones137]

Awesome pics........he's going with the 103x BB in the Driver?

That's a huge change in weight from the DI6......smart move imo.

[Xpicc19]

Does he go from PW right to a 56?

[chupunstick]

Thanks for the awesome pics!

[Scotty1140]

Head shapes between the two putters look the same to me. Totally different faces though. The one he has been using definitely has grooves cut into the face. The newer one has a deeper milling pattern on the face. I don't see any grooves on that one at all. I wonder if the black is actually polymer like the retail models or just for show? Makes you wonder given Tiger and Rory's conversation during their exhibition.

[dhuth_sedi4]

Absolutely incredible pictures! Thanks for posting. This is all I can ask for in snow covered southern Indiana at 4 degrees! Keeps me highly interested! One question, did you see what ball he is gaming? Still playing the Tour*One D? Or has he made the move to RZN...? Thanks again
