Sorry but even if you talk to Tiger or Rock Ishii your answer is not necessarily going to be the correct one, I doubt many people know what equipment Tiger does play, and even less people would tell you if they knew.

You have NO facts to support your "theory". Zip, none. All the people that disagree have the fact that Tiger says so, and that Nike Says so. And of course that it is fairly common knowledge that nothing Nike produces they actually "produce." Because their tennis shoes are made in China by the same plant that makes Louis Vuitton purses, are their shoes LV's and not Nikes? Bring some facts to the table before you argue the point further.

I'm going to go back on myself, Apologies for behaviour.

I do believe Tiger is not playing Nike clubs, but I have always been some one who loves conspiracy theories, so read in to that what you will.

I also dislike some one trying to belittle my post because it disagrees with their opinion, especially when both our sources of info are not Tiger Woods.

Right. Okay, forget it, I give up. Clearly YOU know everything, while people in positions to actually HAVE the answers do not. Sorry for ever doubting you, oh all-knowing one.

Oh, and that's sarcasm, in case your omniscience doesn't extend into the realm of the blatantly obvious. Tiger plays a Nike ball. And this discussion is off-topic.

I've heard if you just want to kill the ball, Black. But if you want performance an workability with great distance, Platinum. But I haven't used them.

That pretty much sums it up. I've used Nike One's almost exclusively since the ONE series began. The 08 platinum is a totally different ball than the 07 was. A vast improvement, and I really loved the 07

    • Day 34 (14 Dec 25) - Got outside for a few moments to work on bump and runs with the 4h (again using the exaggerated weight shift reminder of the left (lead) heel). Finding that it helps keep the downswing arc extended.

    • I am currently playing a Cobra Ltdx LS 9 degree driver and Cobra Ltdx LS FW3. Both with Tensei White stock stiff shafts and original weights of 12g (heel) and 3g (toe). My miss is usually a pull fade or sometimes a slice, swing is out to in. Driver swing speed about 112 mph. Grips are stock regular. Intended change: Driver: Switching to Tensei White x-flex one inch shorter which I suppose would be 44,5? Changing heel weight to 18g. Changing grip to Golf Pride Z-grip cord midsize. Change hosel setting to standard draw. FW3: Changing heel weight to 16g (apparently not available in FW weights, but supposed to be something called "internal weight" a club builder can add which fits between the weight and the screw?). Change grip to Golf Pride Z-grip cord midsize. Changing hosel setting to standard +1. The goal is to 1) get better grip since I tend so lose grip in warm and moist conditions with the current grips and 2) mitigate the misses to start more straight with less side spin. Also considering adding the Cobra Ltdx LS FW5 instead of my old Taylormade R9 and getting 14g heel and 6g toe weights with the same grip as the others and hosel setting standard +1.   All of the above is based on conversations with ChatGPT and, as everyone knows, it can come up with pretty much whatever but I spent a few hours asking about different perspectives etc and this was the recommendation. So, my question is basically, does it make any sense?   Thanks.
