Equipment
Patrick Reed spotted with Artisan wedges, Nike irons at Farmers
Patrick Reed signed a head-to-toe deal with Nike in January. The five-time PGA Tour winner began his professional career as a Nike staffer before signing with Callaway during the 2013 season, but now that he’s moved on from the chevron, he’s an equipment free agent.
Thus, we’ve been waiting to see what’s in Captain America’s bag since the news, and now we have the answer–and it includes some Artisan Golf wedges, which makes sense given the Nike/Mike Taylor/Texas connection.

Reed looks to be gaming a TaylorMade M3, as well as his old Nike VR Pro 3-wood. It looks like he’s got a Titleist T-MB 2-iron, and Nike VR Pro irons similar to what we spotted him with when he was a Swoosh staffer in 2013. Then, there’s the Artisan wedges (51, 56 and 60 degrees), and his trusty Odyssey flatstick.
Here’s a few shots of P. Reed’s new weaponry.
Equipment
Neal Shipley, AKA, the “Big Fridge’s,” custom stamping
Neal Shipley was the first to admit that he enjoyed his food while in college. But since his days at Ohio State, he’s slimmed down and earned a PGA Tour Card.
That hasn’t stopped him from having fun with his wedge stampings, though it’s led to some misunderstandings.
On the 54 (degree), we have ‘Big Fudge,'” Shipley told GolfWRX. “It was supposed to be ‘Big Fridge,’ so this happened a little while ago. ‘Big Fridge’ was a nickname between my college teammates and I, with ‘fridge’ meaning stomach, a big stomach.

“We told the Ping guys to put … ‘Big Fridge’ on it, and I think maybe some bad cell service or something, and they thought I said ‘fudge,’ so they put fudge on it.”
On Shipley’s 50-degree he also continues the food theme, this time with his go-to order at the “Golden Arches,” and his stamping “DONS 7.”
“The number 7 meal, the two cheeseburger meal, that was my McDonald’s order, back when I would have McDonald’s frequently,” Shipley shared.

Looks like the addition of Sergio shakes things up at Callaway. PR seems to be going back to what he knows works while he searches for new sponsorship.

Interesting to see him go back to his Nike irons and 3-wood if he’s not on contract. Again, Nike clubs couldn’t have been that bad as a lot of people think, if there are a lot of players still playing some type of club of theirs…..Tommy Fleetwood playing some clubs and TW.

Wow good catch man. You should call it in next time Reed is playing. Make sure to mention you noticed this on Golfwrx.com so the site gets some free marketing!

Yep, because it’s Monday and he is testing out equipment. If it was a tournament round it would be a different story.
