Looks like some kind of driving iron - couldn't find anything on the net. Does anyone know?

Just to the right of the red stripe on the driver cover.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

Perhaps it's a Ping Rapture driving iron - lines just look different.

Having a great conversation with myself here.

More likely this Callaway prototype utility.

During Scottish Open they went through the bag a bit on Sky Sports with his caddy. But I can not remember details at all. Perhaps someone else does.

It looks like it is the Callaway utility to me. Has anyone here ever used a driving iron? I assume you just get a lower ball flight than say a GI long iron?

Just the opposite, they help you get a higher ball flight, they have a lower center of gravity.

I just found out they are hollow. That would makes sense then.

Yeah, they're an alternative to the hybrid - different look at address and different turf interaction.

More geared for off the tee box than the turf I would imagine?

Of course, but hitting it as an iron, you hit the ground afterwards also.

I gotcha, I was just thinking they may be geared more for hitting it a bit higher on the face.  As in when they are tee'd up.

Hmmmm... You got me on that one, I'm not sure. Being that I suck and don't have the most consistent contact I really couldn't say...

    • You all are right, its not that big of an issue, I'll leave it alone, especially after looking at that picture of Tigers beat up putter. But I also noticed the small circle worn on the sweet-spot where he hits it every time, I definitely don't have one of those. Thanks for the replies   
    • Committing to one brand of ball this year - Snell MTB Prime X, the 5 doz. pack. Like how they perform for me. At $18/doz., can live with cover scuffing. Iron regripping with GolfPrice MCC+4 Teams std. in red/navy. May be retiring Odyssey Dual Force after 30 yrs. Seems like I can't get it to the hole anymore. Kind of light and has lots of toe hang. My reg. group's hounding finally wore me down.    From Callaway preowned - trying out the Odyssey Tri-Hot 5K in double wide (less toe hang) and triple wide (face balanced). Both also noticeably heavier...we shall see.  
    • WOW, it looks like he has been hitting stones with that putter to put all of those nicks into it.  I can't see how a ball would cause many those dings.
    • I'm fighting a knee as well as a foot so I "Feel your pain".  Luckily for me the PT is helping at this time and I am hoping knee surgery is not imminent.  Best of luck to you.
    • I would guess putting grooves in it might make it non-conforming. I am not sure how stringent the USGA is on restoring golf clubs.
