I want to be a window through which Japanese golfers can see what’s happening outside. TPI G2/P2.

WITB|ブライソン・デシャンボー|2016-03-14|Arnold Palmer Invitational

デシャンボーがアマチュア最後の大会としてマスターズに出場します。1日目と2日目にジョーダン・スピースと同じ組だということで,そのプレーがたくさんテレビに映りそう…楽しみですね。

プロ転向後の契約はプーマ/コブラになったそうで,マスターズにもコブラのクラブで臨むとか。ポールターに去られたあと,なんともいい看板が見つかった感がありますね。同じ長さのアイアンセット,市販しないかしら。

WITB Notes: DeChambeau uses what are called "single-length" irons and wedges. They each measure 37.5 inches, and each club is built with a 6-iron shaft. All the irons and wedges have head weights of 280 grams, which is achieved through the addition of brass weights to the back of the long-and-mid irons, as well as 21-gram stainless steel circular weights. The stainless steel weights are positioned on the high toe of the club to counteract the effect of the clubs' extremely upright lie angle (73).

DeChambeau also uses extremely oversized, heavy JumboMaxx XL grips (123 grams) on all his clubs.

Stampings: Every one of DeChambeau's irons and wedges tell a story. Gamma is his 3 iron (Gamma is the 3rd letter in the Greek alphabet). His 60-degree wedge is "King" for Arnold's win at the 1960 U.S. Open and Masters. His 50-degree is "Jimmy" for Jimmy Demaret who won the 1950 Masters. His 8 iron (42 degrees) is "Jackie" for Jackie Robinson. His 9 iron (46 degrees) is "Keiser" for Herman Keiser, who won the 1946 Masters. His 55-degree, "Ward," is for E. Harvey Ward, who won the U.S. Amateur in 1955. His 5 iron is "Azalea," because it's his favorite par-5 at Augusta National. His 6 iron is "Juniper," because it's his favorite par-3 at Augusta.
