Tour Hideki Matsuyama - WITB - 2024 FedEx St Jude

[jt2gt]

He’s got that bullet sole rollin. Looks like the top one which is really cool that he is gaming the rarest one of the group.

That putter collection is wild. I absolutely love it.

[ATatman10]

What a dream collection!

[pgoi]

did anyone else notice the T230 next to the loft on the driver?

 

[Ben Berube]

Sooooo...   will Hidecki now show up every week with 6+ putters along with 20+ Tour ADDI 8x's to test out???

 

Hmmmm!!!!

Has he always played Iomic X-Grips? For some reason I thought he played firmer JDM only Stickys. 

 

Yes! The Iomic X-grips he has is made basically for him. Firmer and has a reminder guide. Can't feel them on an ungripped grip, has to be installed. They are straight from Iomic Japan and get shipped to their location in SoCal. I met the rep out here and he had a bunch in his office. I asked and he said they have to keep them on hand for him and he hand picks and selects and rejects grips. Cool little story!

I always imagine that there's 1 person at SC who's only job is to build putters for Hideki. Starts every build like, "let's see, did that already, did that..did that..did that..maybe we could..nope did that too...

Any info on that driving iron ad di shaft he has 11x proto type 

[newportbeach]

All those nice putters and he won and set a record with another Scotty not even shown (an 009 center shaft). While it is the person putting more than the putter, it would sure be nice to have his choice of putters 🙂

This man has to have the heaviest bag on tour. From a 80 gram TX driver shaft to a 100 gram TX 5 wood shaft is bonkers. As well as s400s for irons. Guy is swinging telephone poles.

I love seeing the heavier graphite in use.  🤘

While still super heavy, I wonder what his lengths are on the woods. Doubt it’s an 80 gram shaft on a 45.75” driver but if I’m wrong that’s pretty cool.

And yet... NONE of those putters were used to win in Maui this weekend! 🤪 LOL!!!

 

His Cameron collection is by far OFF THE CHARTS!!!  He is probably responsible for Scotty Cameron not doing any work for anyone else, with all those custom jobs he has being created for himself.

 

Any good pics out there of what he was using in the 2025 Sentry?!!

From what I have heard is that Don himself likes to work on special requests or something for a high profile player. Anything that can't be offered from the Tour bag, can be mocked up and made for a player. 

 

I have seen LPGA players at the workout facility I go to who get their custom CT putters like 3-6 months later after meeting the tour rep... 

 

I have also been fortunate enough to go and support some outstanding amateurs at the 2023 US Amateur and I saw a rep offering CTs and a Vokey rep offering them wedges. Even if they couldn't get it that week, they would send the players the gear.

Wonder if we will see a future LE or similar version of the putter like Hideki used? Being that he broke the tournament scoring record with it makes me think they may do it.

Thanks for the pictures of the specification stickers/tape!

What does the first fraction on the shaft stickers mean?  Before the 35

No doubt. And his caddy has the calves to prove it! 😆
