Mizuno’s latest wedge offering is forged from mild 1025 carbon steel and features a back-cavity area designed to move the centre of gravity more towards the centre of the face.
TaylorMade expands its Spider line-up to include a new high-stability mallet, the GTx, and the GT Max, an oversize mallet with adjustable weights on its parallel arms that change the centre of gravity’s distance from the face to make it feel, swing and perform like multiple putters in one.
As rumoured for a couple of weeks, Brooke Henderson has formally agreed to a multiyear contract with TaylorMade to play its clubs, ball and use a TaylorMade staff bag. The signing comes on the heels of the company inking another LPGA star, Nelly Korda, earlier in the week. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Kim’s irons are Callaway’s X-Forged CB, a cavity-back players iron, which he used to rank first in the field in strokes gained/approach-the-green, picking up more than eight shots on the field.
TaylorMade Stealth 2 drivers take another bold step in moving to fully carbon composite constructions, this time with special attention to making mis-hits more like centre hits.
The line includes high-forgiveness, draw-enhancing fairway woods and hybrids (the HD models), the easier launching, faster-faced standard models and better player options with the more iron-like flight of the Stealth Plus hybrid and multiple adjustability and driver-like face of the titanium Stealth Plus fairway wood.
Designed with the slower swinger in mind, the Stealth HD irons offer a low-profile clubhead designed to create a lower centre of gravity to promote a higher launch with a draw bias.
Cleveland’s follow up to its successful RTX ZipCore line features a larger ZipCore section (nearly twice the size) that allows weight to be removed and placed elsewhere to boost forgiveness, particularly in the high-low direction.
The three Cobra Aerojet drivers look to combine the swing speed enhancing benefits of aerodynamic bodies with the distance-enhancing benefits of lower spin, a faster-face and increased forgiveness.
