U.S Open Tour Truck Report: Tuesday
Another busy day in the trucks (see yesterday’s report here) and the recurring theme is lots of fresh wedges, 7-woods, and hybrids to combat the nasty rough at Winged Foot.
Word on the street is the golf course is so tough that no amount of tinkering can really make a difference. It’s the U.S. Open at Winged Foot—you either showed up with it or it’s gonna be a long week. Not the time nor place to try and find it.
Callaway tour truck
- Adam Hadwin put the new Prototype Apex MB21 in the bag (5-9) with Project X Rifle 7.0 shafts
- Kevin Kisner switched into the Aldila Rogue Black 130 MSI 60 TX in his driver
- Tom Lewis moved into the Mitsubishi Chemical D-Limited 60 TX in his driver
- Erik van Rooyen put a Mavrik Sub Zero (tour only) 7 wood in play with an MCA Diamama DF 80 TX
Titleist tour truck
- A general note: As expected, lots of hybrid and fairway wood testing for numerous players
- Tyler Duncan put a TS2 21-degree hybrid in play to combat the rough
- Ian Poulter put a TSi2 7-wood in the bag with the new Aldila Tour Green 85 TX shaft
- Titleist will have at least 20 of the new TSi drivers in play
Ping tour truck
- Matthias Schwab added a G410 7-wood to his arsenal with an Aldila Tour Blue ATX 85 TX shaft
- Taylor Pendrith also put the G410 7-wood in play with a Project X Smoke Green 90 6.5 shat
- Corey Conners had a fresh Glide Forged 60-degree wedge with a Project X 6.0 shaft
- Joaquin Niemann settled on the G410 7-wood over a 3-iron for that 240 gap mentioned yesterday.
TaylorMade tour truck
- Dustin Johnson is testing the new SIM DHY (19 degrees) with a Project X HZURDUS Smoke Black Hybrid 100 6.5 shaft, hes getting a about 275 in the air with some spin and a mid flight which is great off the tee at Winged Foot.
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.

That DHY is an absolute cannon. I hit it a couple weeks ago and it was butter smooth, very high launching and DEEP. Only drawback I found was it was literally too straight. Hard to work in either direction.

Has JT moved to the TSi3 with a different shaft? Seen a picture on Instagram, its clear he is using a TSi driver but cant make out the shaft, it looks blue in colour and different to the ZF….
