Faldo said he was using a 6.5 deg driver.

Exactly Danz – i believe he said 6.2 deg with 59 gram shaft…

yep… I knew it was 6 point something. The 59 gram shaft isn’t that extreme I don’t think. But the 6 deg driver… geez he must have some kick arse swing speed to get the distance he does.

I may be corrected, but i think he has a much more agressive swing now than he used to, especially with the driver…

project x 7.0 in irons should be some indication of swing speed

Not much detail in that article about his wedge combo, I think I heard there was a 64 in there?

GOLF.com suggests he was using a 7.5 deg driver. Apparently he cracked the head the week before the Masters – sent it to Callaway to fix Good Friday, was back with Phil on Monday. I’ll see if I can find a link…

Geez, 6.2 degree or 7.5 degree. Most putters are 4 degrees.

Phil Mickelson cracked the crown of his Callaway FT-9 Tour Authentic driver at the Shell Houston Open. (A nearly identical driver, the FT Tour, is now available to the public.) Like a patient in critical need of an organ transplant, the club was flown to San Diego on Easter Sunday, where it was met at the airport by the head of Callaway’s R&D team, Dr. Alan Hocknell.

According to Callaway, the company, “performed an ‘unprecedented repair,’ removing the body from the clubface while never taking off the shaft in order to ensure that the loft and lie remained secure.”

Hocknell said, “We decided to remove the carbon composite body from the face, and we’ve never done that before, so everyone was a bit nervous. But through a lot of teamwork, we had a new body and weights installed by 1:30 p.m. on Monday.”

Meanwhile, back in Augusta, Mickelson texted Hocknell: “How bad is it, Doc? Is she gonna make it?”

Needless to say, the patient made a full recovery, was flown back cross-country, and helped Mickelson win his third green jacket. For the week, Phil hit 60% of the fairways and averaged 297 yards per drive.

According to inside golf, this is what was in Phil’s bag;

FT Tour Driver (7.5 degree)
Big Bertha Diablo Fairway Wood (15 degrees)
Callaway Prototype Hybrid (22 degrees)
X-Forged 4-iron
X-Prototype Irons (5-PW)
JAWS Wedges (53, 60 and 64 degrees)

Odyssey White Hot XG Blade Putter
