Rickie Fowler’s Oklahoma State Mitsubishi Golf Shaft

Rickie Fowler, who plays a Mitsubishi Rayon White Board shaft in his driver, is a huge fan of his alma mater, Oklahoma State. As a little present, the company had a driver shaft specially painted OSU orange and black for him, then added an image of Pistol Pete, the school's cowboy mascot.

Tiger Woods Sticking With Old Shaft

Today was media day at Bethpage State Park , home of the Black Course, where the U.S. Open will be played June 18-21. My clubs were in my car, and I was itching for a chance to challenge a course that's so tough that it comes with a warning sign. Instead, we got rained out. The day was not a total loss, however. After various USGA and government officials spoke, Tiger Woods took questions via conference call. I asked about his driver testing: You've been experimenting with some different driver shafts. Can you explain where you are in the process of trying to find the right mix for your driver and how important that's going to be as you start your preparation coming here to Bethpage? “I think I'm going to stick with the same shaft, my old shaft [ Mitsubishi Diamana White Board ]. The other shaft [an Oban Mach 4 prototype] did not quite work out for me. Wasn't what I was looking for. Felt good in the practice round, but in the tournament, I didn't quite have the same feel for it, so went back to my old driver on the weekend. Hit the ball nice; I wouldn't say great, but I hit it a little bit better. But still, this driver has done pretty well, and that's the one I'll continue working with and hopefully get my swing organized. ” As I wrote earlier on Twitter , it sounds like Tiger's shaft experimentation may be over for now. Still, I'll be sure to report on what he's swinging this week at TPC Sawgrass .

Woods Back with Mitsubishi White Board Driver Shaft

I just got a note from the rep for Mitsubishi saying that Tiger Woods is playing with the company's Diamana White Board driver shaft during the third round of the Quail Hallow Championship. On Wednesday during his practice round, Woods used an Aldila Voodoo XPP8 shaft in his Nike Dymo 380 driver. On Thursday, The Shop Blog broke the news that Woods was using a prototype Oban Mach 4 shaft. While Tiger is averaging 316 yards per drive, his accuracy so far this week has been awful. The world's No. 1 player hit just 30% of the fairways in the first two rounds.
