In-hand Photos of Tiger Woods’ new TaylorMade Milled Grind wedges
Tiger Woods (finally) switched to TaylorMade Milled Grind wedges at The 2018 Memorial Tournament. Woods seemed reluctant to switch from his previous Nike VR Forged wedges to new TaylorMade wedges, even after he switched from his Nike Oven-made TGR blade irons to the his TaylorMade TW-Phase1 irons. But alas, he’s made the change, and we have photos of Tiger’s new TaylorMade Milled Grind wedges.
Based on the photos, Tiger is using a 56-degree wedge with 12 degrees of bounce, and a 60-degree wedge with 10.5 degrees of bounce. As always, he has the wedges equipped with Golf Pride Tour Velvet grips and True Temper Dynamic Gold Tour Issue S400 shafts.

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.

These are the next limited TW Taylormade release to come out. And of course I will buy them.

Just not a Taylor Made fan. The high-toe model is an exact knock-off of the Callaway PM Grind wedge, which costs $60 less than TM (and has been in my bag for 3 years). And I’d prefer a wedge designed by Roger Cleveland & Phil over some guy at TM.

If you can’t center-hit on wedges you are totally incompetent…. miss on the long irons but never on the wedges and short irons.
